Holiday Party Disaster Stories?

Hey there!

I'm the new EA here at The Nest. You'll probably see me popping up on a few boards from time to time, so just wanted to introduce myself :)

For a new piece, we'd love if you shared your holiday party disaster stories: whether you had just a little too much to drink at the office party or you were witness to your mom's off-tune caroling (along with all your guests!) feel free to share below.

Re: Holiday Party Disaster Stories?

  • About 7 years ago I got into a huge fight with my boyfriend at the time on Christmas Eve. Rather than letting things cool off, I responded by over indulging in the Di Saronno Amereto in front of my grandparents, mother, brother....

    Not only did I get very sick after embarassing myself but the next morning at Christmas day mass I officially threw up in the church bathroom. I will never touch Amereto again!

  • It was my first Holiday Dinner with my new company and I had a major crush on my boss...well a few apple martinis later and I thought I could speak Spanish to the bus boys and I even sat on my bosses lap! My friend who came with me had to keep pulling over on the way home so I could throw up. Everyone laughed about it though so it was not too bad.
  • When I was engaged to DH, one of our male friend's parents threw a party. Since my friend had just broken up with his girlfriend, I went along with him as a "date" but not romatically. His grandmother saw my engagement ring and thought we were engaged the entire night, it was very awkward!

    There was really nothing to eat except caviar, so I had caviar and wine all night and ended up getting sick in his mother's enormous marble bathroom!

  • Two years ago I was hosting our first thanksgiving, with my mom's help. My husband ( at the time fiance) took a glass casserole and place it on the stove top. He didn't know that the burner was on. About 10 mins before we carved the turkey was heard a loud noise. The casserole exploded! There was glass in the sweet potatoes and gravy. My husband felt so bad he went looking for sweet potatoes and canned gravy. Surprisingly he was able to find some. Everything did turn out great, and now we have a fun story to tell. However, the explosion was so loud, it scared my dog and she spent the rest of the evening hiding under the bed!
