Have a Greek-themed party for your friends.
Greece

Ahh, Greece. Their tight family structure and love of a good party makes this a place to celebrate. Opa!

Setting the scene: Decorate your home in all white with brilliant bursts of azure blue. Fill vases and bowls with bright yellow lemons, and place candles in beautiful gold votive holders.

Activities: Yes, they are known for discus and javelin throws, but this Mediterranean country also knows how to dance! Get everyone on their feet!

Food: Nothing screams Greece like lamb kebabsfeta, olives, oregano, olive oileggplant, seafood, hummustzatzikigrape leaves, spanakopita, moussaka, baklava...the list goes on and on.

Drink: Only one choice here—ouzo!

Party favor: Send friends on their way with a make-your-own-Greek-salad kit. Pack it full with the best olives, olive oil, fresh oregano and feta you can find.
