Valentine's Day Party

On Saturday Feb 14, we held our 8th annual valentines party. Every year we invite a number of our un-attached friends for an evening of food and table games. This year the turnout was good.

Making the heart treat boxes:
Look Janet peeled an orange............

In the past the meal has generally been chilli on a bun, but this year Nettie, Sara, Barb and Mary put together a mystery meal complete with options like "Farmers Friend" (water), "Rippers delight" (a knife) and "David's Geometry" (our main course, shepherds pi...I mean pie). The meal was served in three courses which people ordered in advance. Some people had courses of the meal that were mostly composed of cutlery and no food, and then later they got food without cutlery.

Catherine, eating jell-o with a straw. Nobody could suck hard enough to get the stuff up the straw, so it's sort of like having one chopstick.
