Each lady should bring one item of necessity, entertainment, or absurdity to be exchanged in the style of your most awkward office party and/or Sunday School Christmas social. Possible gifts might include:
- movies (stay away from chic flicks unless you also include chocolate and kleenex)
- giant cereal bowls, drink coasters
- board games, to be used for weekend entertaining
- pizza, coffee shop, nail salon, or grocery store gift certificates
- make-ahead/single-serving recipe books
- entire seasons of TV series on DVD
- pajamas and bedroom slippers
- an idiot's guide to growing houseplants and herbs
- matching towel sets (because we need those, too, you know), bubble bath
- candles/high-quality plug-in air-fresheners
- work-out or dance instructional videos
- 30 days of gym membership, pottery lessons, or netflix
- feel free to bring expensive kitchen appliances/home decor that would have appeared at a wedding shower
- ABSOLUTELY PROHIBITED: gift memberships to online dating sites. Hostess will not be held responsible for any personal injury due to violation. Also, dating advice or "worst date ever" books are discouraged.
Those who wish to come early are invited to participate in a photo shoot! Instead of engagement photos, we will all get shots of our own lovely faces to inundate everyone's facebook news feed for weeks.
*Un-Single people may choose to attend, but upon arrival your gift must be surrendered and will automatically become a door prize. You may be used as a wardrobe assistant or prop during the photo shoot.
