Summary

Today's episode is all about parties -- and ways to have fun with throwing them!

Laura and Sarah discuss memorable parties of the past, and each share some recent party successes (those they have attended as well as thrown). They share the elements of a good gathering as described in Priya Parker's The Art of Gathering, as well as little details NOT to forget (for example: where do people park?). Each share their favorite party snacks and treats. Finally, they review successful kid birthday parties and favorite ideas for favors (think consumable!).
