Who wants to help me plan what to make for "a party in a box" - more inside...

[marilynfl]

Something for diabetics to enjoy.

How about a party sign (welcome) for the door

 

[marilynfl]

A disposable camera for taking pictures with a pre-paid envelope to mail it back to you.

 

[marilynfl]

Love, love, love your box idea.

 

[pat-nocal]

Yes, if it's mom who has the diverticulitis, but if she doesn't I wouldn't

worry about it and would include nuts if she likes them. Others with nut issues can choose to avoid.

 

[pat-nocal]

p.s. actually, I think some mixed nuts might be a nice welcome savory balance to the sweets.

 

[pat-nocal]

Good idea! Dominoes are fun and would take up little space in the party box. And a deck of cards or

bunko?

 

[pat-nocal]

A CD of Christmas tunes, or other music, if she has a CD player.

 

[deb-in-mi]

Me too - the balloon idea is *great*

 

[marilynfl]

We could package up a few folks from here.

 

[Marg CDN]

Oh yes. It's a boring diet for those of us with diverticulitis. Then add kidney stones and the

only thing that's left to eat is peaches.

But I think just a little flag for whatever contains nuts would be sufficient. It's so difficult to keep nuts out of Christmas.

LOL!

 

[angak1]

wait, maybe I better go hide

Some classic movie DVDs, Joe's truffles au chocolate (aka Julia's)

Left - Right - Center dice game is a huge hit at my Mom's parties. Very easy and can multi task ie

eat; chat and play the game at the same time.

[mariadnoca]

Yes, mom has it and with her memory issues not sure she'd recall having it.

 

[traca]

Mini stockings with hooks that she can hand out as party favors.

For me, it's not Christmas without homemade Chocolate Crinkles/Snowflakes
