taking wine to friends' houses

[joggerjayne]

More of us will be going to afternoon drinks parties today than on any other day in the year.

So let's try this old favourite ...

... what are you going to take?

For example ...

1. Take the cheapest bottle you have in the house, because you know it won't get opened?

2. Take a bottle that you have bought specially, because you think the hosts will like it?

3. Take the bottle that someone dumped at your house, this time last year?

4. Phone them in advance and ask what they would like you to bring?

5. Assume that they have provided all that is needed for the party itself, and take something that they can enjoy when everyone has gone home, like a DVD and a box of chocolates?

6. Take flowers?

7. Take nothing?

[tiggerblue10]

I usually make things to take. Last year I made 2 massive baked cheesecakes, chocolate brownies and chocolate fondants. This year I'm doing tiny Xmas puds a la Nigella Lawson and choc brownies. Cheesecakes are hard work.

It's the last Sunday afternoon before Christmas. That's when these things take place.

[tiggerblue10]

I actully did it for last years New Years Eve party. This time I'm taking them in to work on Xmas Eve. I don't really got to drinks parties but any excuse to make CAKE! Lol

[joggerjayne]

This is going to sound a bit pathetic, but I think the last time I made a cake was in Cookery lessons at school.
