Housewarming Party

Dear Internet,
Laura and I are having a house warming party in about 4 weeks, which will be totally awesome. Since we have a good amount of time to plan, I will go ahead and ask for some inputs from my loyal readers. Here's the rundown. We are going to have hotdogs and hamburgers, beer (most likely cheap canned beer), probably some other drink(s), college football on the tv, and wiffle ball. Does this sound like enough food and entertainment?

For the wiffle ball, I have a bat but I need to get some better wiffle balls. I hit the one that came with the bat into the gutter and since I don't have a ladder, it's still up there. The other balls I got really suck, and I've already broken two or three. I also need to a get one of those big red bats for the ladies. I haven't found one yet, so if you know where to look, please let me know. Also, anybody know the best type of wiffle balls to get? One that wont break when I hit the daylights out of it?

Second, I need some ideas on the other drinks department. We want to keep it relatively simple (so nothing fancy). We will have water bottles for the people that don't want to have fun. But I was thinking of some type of punch. Not necessarily koolaid with fun mixed in, but something a little different. Does anybody out there remember in elementary school how the PTA moms would make the 7up and sherbert punch? Wasn't that awesome? It's also super easy! You just take gallons of your favorite sherbert flavor (lime, watermelon, rainbow, etc.) and pour a bunch of 7up on it. You can add dry ice and vodka if you like for a little mystery. Does that sound like a good party drink?

Please let me know your thoughts and ideas!


love,
Robert

  1. I think mom probably has your red bat around here somewhere. I prefer orange sherbet.
