Ahhh, roller coasters… they remind me of my life! Excitement! Anticipation! Climbing up toward the heavens, on top of the freakin’ world! Then, suddenly, something throws me for a loop, I’m upside down, screaming at the top of my lungs, hanging on for dear life! Honestly, though, I wouldn’t have it any other way! I love the thrills of the highs and lows. I crave the adrenaline rush. That’s why I got into event planning!
More than anything, I think National Roller Coaster Day is a great reminder to enjoy life to the fullest every day. Invite friends over. Have a get together. You don’t need an occasion! Just celebrate the crazy, topsy turvy-ness of existence and lift a glass to the friends and family who are along for the ride!
Ideas For A Super Casual Impromptu “Hey, Come Over And Celebrate That Life Is A Crazy Roller Coaster”
I love setting up a Bloody Mary Bar at casual get togethers because it lets guests create their own cocktail just the way they like ’em! With heat, super spicy, or garnished with tons of veggies, everyone gets to add as many stuffed olives as they like! Or not! Plus, you can get creative with how you display the garnishes by using a fun serving platter or Lazy Susan like the one below. Check out our article Spice Up The Next Party for my fave Bloody Mary recipe and tips for presentation.
Roller Coasters Are All About Speed. Your Food Should Be Too!
Don’t bother fussing about in the kitchen! This is an impromptu bash so there’s no need to cook a full on meal! Grocery stores offer plenty of frozen appetizers like mini-quiches, egg rolls, and flatbread pizzas that you can just pop in the oven and serve. Do it! Thank me tomorrow!
No matter what you do today, remember, life is a roller coaster, so you might as well make it a thrill!
