Olympics Party

We're hosting a party for the Opening Ceremony of the Olympics.  The London website has a lot to offer, but I am always looking for more ideas.  Got any?  This is a small gathering~maybe 10 people~plus our 3 small children.  I'm not too worried about the kids entertainment, as they will probably be in bed.

 

Any cute recipes, decorating tips, or games to play?  Thanks!

  • I have a post about this very thing on my blog this week. Hope you get some ideas from it.  The link is in my signature.  :) 
  • The Today Show had this as a segment this morning.  I didn't catch anything but the teaser, but it might be worth looking at the website.

    I'll be a guest at an Olympics party and was looking for something to take.  I came across a lot of mushy peas recipes and recalled an old Real Simple clipping I had that had a lot of bruschetta inspired things which led me to this recipe:

     I hear mint & peas are an amazing combo so we'll see how that turns out.  I plan on serving with either toasted or grilled baguette slices.  This may not be the most authentic British recipe but I think my group will like it. 

    Oh, another girlfriend is making bangers & mash.  I'm excited to try that!

    I like the ideas of signs for "The Official 2012 Olympics".  Cute  idea!

  • Thanks!  I'm having this party tonight and sooooo many people have called to say they can't come!  Hope I'm not going to all this work for nothing.  I hate last minute cancelations.  Pout.
