Girlfriend Gathering Ideas

 Staying Home

• Pampering Party  
• Invite friends for a breakfast, lunch or dinner menu; don’t feel like cooking – host a potluck.
• Have a Bunco night.  Bunco is a dice game that is all the rage for groups of 12 or more people (4 people per table/group).  The official Bunco rules and instructions on playing can be found online at http://www.worldbunco.com.
• Host an MLM party (Tupperware, Cooking, Jewelry, Scrapbooking)  – This is not only a fun night to share with the girls but you will most likely be supporting a woman owned business as well.
• Set up a Swap Night – swap childrens clothes, toys, games, your own clothing, pocketbooks, have a dinner swap.
• Work on a project  - scrapbooking, gardening, cooking, sewing, quilting.

Going Out with the Girls

• Spa – can keep it as simple as going for manicures together or a full blown day of treatments from your favorite spa.
• Dine out (Pub, Diner, Fast Food or Dress Up and splurge), you can also switch it up by trying a new restaurant or eating Mexican, Greek, Japanese or going for fondue.  Kick it up a notch by going to a Karaoke bar, martini bar, comedy show, etc.
• Fitness Fun – Tennis, running, bicycling, exercise class, go walking together
• Learn something – meditation, organic foods, automotive class (something I think every woman should take- just my two cents), Join a book club.
