October Bags and Brew Party
OK ladies, we have a few good weekends left before the shivering starts. Let’s make the best of the weather, gather together and meet some new friends. With our Bags and Brew tournament party, you can do just that. Girlfriend Celebrations has planned a bags (aka beanbags, baggo, or the unfortunately named “cornhole”) tournament —no boys allowed—that will help your expand your girlfriend circle before you retreat indoors to hibernate for the winter.
Wine Not?
Don’t you love it when you meet someone who is so enthusiastic about what they do, that it’s contagious? That’s the feeling we had the other day when we met Sue and Kathy from Prairie and Vine, an adorable wine shop and tasting room in Chicago’s western suburbs. It reminded us to tell you that now is a GREAT time of year to have a Wine Among Friends party. Tina hosted one of these two years ago and it was a fabulous success.

A Soup Exchange…Mmm, Mmm, Girlfriends!
When the weather turns fallish, a nice, hot bowl of soup starts to sound really good. We mentioned last week that soup would be a frugal meal to serve at a party. That same day, our real-life girlfriend and blogger Gabi emailed to tell us about a soup exchange she had last year. We thought it was such a great idea for a girls night that we wanted to share it with you.
NOT a Baby Shower!
No, it was *not* a baby shower. Just a little luncheon for our girlfriend Siobhainn, pregnant with her 3rd. She adamantly refused a baby shower, but that didn’t stop us from pampering her in other ways! Readers often ask us for non-traditional baby shower ideas, and our Birth Day Party article provides a great shower focused on the mama-to-be.
