Wah!!! Whatta a party it was!!!
Like I had mentioned yesterday, today I hosted my biggest ever party!!
OK fine, given that I don't exactly host many parties, getting it to be the"biggest" wasn't really that tough. But it was definitely one of the best times I've ever had!!!
Together with the Mausams gang and a few close friends who were invited, we had a super duper blast!!! I was grinning like an idiot throughout, with all the excitement (and also the Rosso Martini) and loved every bit of the experience! I dunno how to replicate all that excitement into the blog but let me just write down a few highlights:
a) The fact that many of my most favourite people could make it!
b) Decorating the house with some Diwali paraphernalia and electric lights!
c) Lighting the diwali lamps with the help of all the friends who got to the party early!
d) The super popular Pani Puris! These were catered and turned out to be a major hit with everyone! We had people ditching our Bingo game to have Pani Puris!
e) The yummy menu with the awesome carrot halwa and rajma salad that a friend contributed to the evening, Mom's green peas curry and payasam as well as the catered pulao, tandoori chicken and malai kofta! Yummm!
f) Soju, which the hubby had bought from his most recent trip to Korea and which came in the cutest little containers. It turned out be the biggest hit amongst all the drinks (which were way too many, by the way) of the day!
g) The Bingo (also known as Tambola/Housie) game which turned out to be downright uproarious! There was ongoing confusion about the rules, about the numbers, accusations of cheating whenever the hubby won a game (which he did with remarkabe frequency) and ridiculously high decibel noise throughout.
g) Dance, dance and more dance!!! I believe we got every single person in the room to dance at least for one song! The best was dancing or rather running, to the fantastic D K Bose (Bhaag Bhaag) song! All of us were on our feet for that one...just madly doing the running-man... it was AWESOME!
f) Last but not the least, getting the security guards of our condominium to come all the way to our apartment to escort the guests out from our door until the gates, to ensure that we party no more past midnight! Apparently they got a record number of complaints from the residents, thanks to us! How amazing!!!
So there... My first proper party and I had a really, really, really amazing time!!!
298 more to go.
