You are cordially invited to attend a soiree of epic proportions... this Friday 613 will play host to the first ever (I think) Boxed Wine and Nachos with Cheese Party.
Linda Geiger picked up 2 tubs of cheese (each weighing more than 6 pounds) and two big bags of chips which she supplied me with over this past weekend. We're going to grab some cheap platters/trays and get plastic bowls to place in the middle of each tray and fill up with microwavable cheese (is your mouth watering yet?). We're still considering just how many boxes of wine to pick up. I'm thinking we need at least ten, just to be safe. Maybe if people come in groups of 5 or more, they could bring along an extra box-o-wine and add to the surplus. We'll probably have like 3 or 4 boxes out at all times. Everyone will be equipped with a cheap, plastic wine glass.
Attire is formally casual... which is to say, a little bit of class but still retaining the cheapness that both boxed wine and nacho cheese have come to represent. I'm thinking about wearing a button-down shirt and tie, dress pants, and flip-flops. We might have an official CD for the party: pop tracks layed over classical music... Jer is pretty busy but he might be able to bang it out for us.
The event will take place from 10:30 pm - ??? (maybe 613 club, I don't know). I will be supplying orange soda for those who are interested in partaking in some delicious "tinto verano" (a popular Spanish drink, typically consumed at the beach, which calls for 12 oz red wine, 2 oz orange soda, and a little bit of ice). If guests do bring their own alcohol, we are urging them to only bring boxed wine, but if someone gets physically ill on account of the stuff, or if they just put up a big fight, I guess it would be okay for them to bring their own liquor/beer.
If you have any suggestions/additions/party planning ideas/potential conflicts/etc... toss 'em in the ring.
Alright good stuff. You stay quasi-classy 613. Spread the word.
