Bryan and I are huge Seinfeld fans. We have watched it together since our second date. We always joke that it's difficult for us to be friends with people who don't watch Seinfeld because they don't get any of our jokes! And if they don't LIKE Seinfeld?? Yeah, it's over. Anyway, with Bryan's 40th birthday coming up, I could think of no greater theme for a party than Seinfeld. I can tell you that I had more fun planning this party. In fact, it was a major topic of discussion during the entire week of our family reunion in St. George. The entire family was giving suggestions for food ideas, activities, and signs. Brian Evans won our vote for best sign idea - "In order to save time, all food was prepared in the shower." We laughed so hard at that one! Since I was out of town the entire week before the party, arriving home in the wee morning hours on party day, I was very grateful for good friends who offered to help with the food and party signs. It all came together in the end, and the party was a big hit! For all of our friends who are fans of the show, they got all of the inside jokes and enjoyed the Seinfeld trivia game that we played. One couple brought a Festivus pole (awesome!), and another couple showed up with Pepsi and Ring Dings. The party favors that we gave out were awesome - Beefarino, Vegetable Lasagna, Lobster Bisque, Ovaltine, H&H Bagels, Drake's Coffee Cakes, Junior Mints, Snickers (eat with a knife and fork), and a pudding selection for a Pudding Singles venture. You can see all of the food items in the pictures - they were the most fun to plan. For those guests who didn't know Seinfeld very well...I'm sure it was a super lame party. But for the rest of us??? It was awesome!!
