    The house is clean, the rag quilts are made,the favors are all done, the food is prepared and I'm ready to set up everything for the punch that Nancy Ingham suggested in the food section.

    I don't have a punch bowl or a bowl large enough to use for a punch bowl. Would it really be gross to use my spaghetti pot? How about if I put a pink bow on one handle and a blue bow on the other?

    Another memory in the making.....

    Do you have a covered cake plate...some of them convert into a punch bowl?

    Set your spaghetti pot inside a decorated box or basket and no one will notice the pot...they'll just think you are a very clever hostess.

    I think the big stock pot could be kind of cute or use two or more smaller decorative bowls or keep refilling a small bowl. How about a large glass pitcher? does any of the guests have a punch bowl they could be so kind to let you use? Sounds like fun. I'll be over once the kids are in bed. Hehehehe

    What a great idea! I have a basket that would be perfect.
    Thank you so much!
