Is there dress up involved?

Mardi Gras?
Anti-Valentine's Day?

well noone usually dresses up but i could do that. i feel like i want them to do something when there here. like a game theme or bring a recipe. i i don't want anyone to be bored. i have this thing where i want to entertain.

Mardi Gras is a great idea(Especially for Feb)
Party Stores have great things for this!
Maybe a Winter Theme with the Signature Drink being Hot Chocolate w/ peppermint Schnapps(Tastes like a Peppermint Patty)!!!!!!

What about a grab bag for valentines day but make it jokes and sex.

Pick out of the grab bag
people pick out but you have the right to change the gift with the person after you. In other words the only person that can realy keep their original gift is the first person.

It gets crazy and its fun

Fat Tuesday (I think is the end of Mardi Gras) is the day before Ash Wednesday - this year Fat Tuesday is Feb 28th, so your date is right in the middle of Mardi Gras.

I got a King Cake from my local bakery one year - they put a bake it with a little plastic baby in it - whoever gets the baby in their piece has good luck for the coming year.

I believe the chinese new was yesterday. I like the Mardi Gras idea a lot. The St. Patty's them I liked too. I was thinking you could have everyone come in something with green. DH would love that...it's his favorite color. But then that would go better if the month were march.

Stick with Mardi Gras...your guests can wear fancy costume jewelry...or those masks...
