After spending two and a half hours enjoying some delicious
appetizers, all thirteen of us head over to the next house which actually was
my house for the dinner portion of the night. You might actually be thinking
that the timing was a little early to be eating dinner (around 4 ish), but that’s
because we had to keep going and follow the schedule.
We got
back to my house and my parents had set up so many crazy activities to do while
the main meal was still getting prepared. Some activities that were set up were
a hot chocolate bar (where we had hot chocolate already made, but they were
able to add crushed up candies to them), a couple little Christmas themed
Trivia and would you rather games, and a ring toss. They definitely came
prepared and had everything planned out.

Once the
dish was ready, everybody started to become so anxious to get our food as the
smell wafted over and up into our noses. My mom had planned spaghetti with my
grandma’s famous sauce and some meat piled on top. Even though the spaghetti
was the main meal, my mom also had out other foods that went well with the main
dish. Some included a bowl of jello, some cooked mixture of seafood, some
cooked veggies, and you can’t forget the breadsticks. What’s spaghetti without
any breadsticks? Not only did we have breadsticks lying out, but we also had
cheesy gooey garlic bread that you can never turn down. There were the big
pieces too that made it even harder to say no to seconds!
Just like
the host for the appetizers, we had so many different beverages to choose from.
Like I mentioned before we had a hot chocolate bar, but also all these pops, Gatorade,
juice, and lots of wine (obviously only for the adults). We wanted a variety a
drinks so the guests were able to drink what they preferred.
Typically
the dinner part of the afternoon is the longest because the most food is
served. Not only is it a great time to spend with family and cherish the
moments, but’s also a great time to enjoy some tasty home cooked meal with some
of the best sides scooped on to the side. You know what they say; the only down
fall to having the main meal is how afterwards you have so many leftovers that
could probably last a whole week!
