Bartending - House Party

So tonight was nothing extreme, or out of the ordinary, or something I hadn't done before. Tonight was just fun. R and I bartended for a family's Valentine's Day house party. Deal was that we could drink on the job and just have a fun time together while pouring some basic drinks for their friends.

The whole thing ended up being super chill and fun. Even though there is a definitely age gap, we enjoyed talking with their friends and memorizing their go to drinks, and even found a fellow Badger! (we're everywhere!) They rented a karaoke machine and people drank and were merry.
For the sake of privacy, I'm not going to post karaoke or party pictures, but I do have a "high school" -ish type pic of myself after I got ready for the party and a few pre-party pics. I wish I could post the karaoke ones, but I just love those singers too much to embarrass anyone!

I hope you have had a wonderful weekend. Feel free to share your weekend activities or make fun of mine. Cheers!
Ready, Set, Go!
Booze
Valentine's Day isn't complete without
chocolates and treats!

Super Bowl XLVII

Standard Super Bowl Sunday house party - food, booze, laughs, and of course commercials, half time, and the big game. Although it was sad to watch the 49ers lose, I'm glad they at least made a game out of it! And let's be honest - I'm a Packers fan.

I've never been the greatest at walking into someone's house, not knowing more than two people. I'm not sure quite how to act and often get that "high school" feeling that I'm being judged. Honestly-  if anyone has tips for me,  please share! I tend to try to find a couple people to talk to and gradually mingle into the whole party.  I've also found that bringing a dish or drinks to share doesn't hurt (although I didn't tonight - if you read this, L, I'm sorry! ).

Anyways, tonight was fun and I hope you had fun too, however you chose to watch the big game :)

Oh and I want to learn to walk like Beyoncé...
