Food & Drink - 20 November 2006

I am 31 and I went to one of those types of places downtown in a lage Florida city this past weekend. Everyone in the pubs on the downtown strip appeared to be in their early-mid 20's and alot even looked underage. Everyone was packed into these bars as tightly as sardines. Seemed like alot of frat boys, jocks, and emo kids hanging out. Some pseudo intellectual types were crowded around the trendy spots too. Nothing has changed with the types that hang out (except for these weak looking emo kids with feminine haircuts) but I guess I just got older. I think I stopped feeling this scene around the age of 27 or 28. When did you stop feeling it? I am guessing alot of folks will say, "When I got married and had kids!"

I'm throwing a Christmas party for friends. I need some ideas.

I've searched the internet and I keep coming up with the same lame ideas. This is a party that is for adults only (and I don't mean x-rated!). My friends are drinkers, so holiday drinking games would be fun. It is also hard to get everyone's attention when they're partying so I need something that catches their attention. We always play the gift game where everyone brings a gift, wrapped with no name on it and then we play a game to determine who gets what gift. That's always a hit. But I feel like I need something else. Maybe something that can be played throughout the night while everyone is eating, drinking, etc?

Any ideas? (I am on somewhat of a tight budget). I should probably tell you also that we're inviting around 40 people of which we expect maybe 20-30 to show up. Most of us are in our twenties and thirties.

Thanks!

I'm looking for ways and tricks of the cooking trade to make my Thanksgiving turkey the best it can be. I know to baste it in butter, but is there anything I can do to ensure a great bird this year? I'd love to know what you do -- please, no web sites. I want tried and true recipes!

Happy Thanksgiving,
Susie

What are your favorite recipes using daikon? So far I've used it in stir-fry and in rice, raw.

For those inquiring, Daikon is a root vegetable found in many asian stores. It looks like a giant white carrot. You can eat the root or the greens. It is similar to a radish, beet, or carrot.
