For over a year now, me and the Bossman along with our siblings have been getting together and throwing "Theme Dinner Nights." These came about last summer when we found we all had an excessive amount of time on our hands and needed something more interesting to do than watch one episode of Lost after another for hours on end...not that I didn't enjoy that- there were just some in the party who didn't find it to be a legitimate way for one to spend an entire summer.
So the scoop is, for a year we've been doing this- one of the four of us hosts the night, we rotate turns as host/hostess, and there are three simple rules we follow:
1) There must be a theme
2) The host must serve a theme-related dinner
3) The host must plan various theme-related activities
So it's kinda like a 6 year old birthday party, only for 20 something year olds that could most definitely find something better to do with their time, but tend to resort to a theme dinner night every once in a while because it makes for some great scrapbooking pictures and is relatively inexpensive.
Anyway...
Tonight was the Bossman's turn to host, and he did not let us down.
The theme: Artsy Evening
The dinner: frozen pizza (Another rule I forgot to mention...no complaining is allowed on theme dinner nights. So in the event the host fails to follow rule #2 by providing a theme-related dinner (ahem), one must bite his tongue and hold out for a pb&j following the end of all theme dinner night related activities.)
The activity: a visit to the local Art Museum to get some culture
We had a rip-roaring good time, which may mostly be attributed to the funky-artsy outfits we adorned and the mini-photo shoot we had prior to arriving at the museum.
Like I said, valuable scrapbooking potential! =)




Artsy.
Wishing you and yours a very artsy weekend...and dinners consisting of more than processed cheese and high fructose corn syrup.

Looks like fun. Good for you for being creative.
