Nutella, Kebabs, and St. Patrick's Day!

Have you ever been to a "Nutella, Kebabs, St. Patrick's Day Party? I'm guessing for most everyone else on the planet the answer to that question is NO! A group of clever Young Women from our Ward and one of their leaders hosted this very imaginative celebration last Saturday. Here is the explanation of the party: We have combined three things that simply do not get enough attention in most people's party plans. First, Nutella, that chocolatey, hazlenutty goodness is worthy of two or three parties a year. And Kebabs? I need hardly explain that all food is more fun on a stick. What's not to love? Lastly, St. Patrick's Day. Long looked at merely as an excuse to wear green (or to pinch people), this holiday holds endless possibilities for green-hued fun. So, what does one do at a Nutella / Kebab / St. Patty's Day Party? For starters, attendees should wear green (or be prepared for the consequences). Like most parties, food will be involved. Everyone should bring a dish that either: 1) includes Nutella as a discernible ingredient, 2) is on a kebab (and seriously, folks, think outside the box on this one, SO many things could go on a stick that usually don't), and/or 3) is green, shaped like a four-leaf clover, or otherwise invokes the spirit of St. Patrick's Day. We will be on the lookout for creativity here, so look for ways to create a dish that involves more than just one of those three options. Super bonus points (and the points DO matter) to anyone who can bring something that includes all three. Games, trivia, and possibly Irish dancing will be part of the festivities. Can't wait to see you young women and leaders there for a fun YW activity! The food was delicious and fit the criteria for the party so well. Pizza kebabs, tortellini kebabs, pickles on a stick....brownies on a stick....shamrock cookies on a stick....cupcakes on a stick....Nutella pancake balls on a stick.....tater tots on a stick....you get the idea!

Definitely the most clever food of the night was the 'pot of gold at the end of the rainbow' kebabs! The rainbow is licorice.
Such a fun night! Now in the spirit of Ireland I'll just say "Slán go fóill."
