Random Birthdays

Celebrate the Odd Birthdays

HAPPY HALF-BIRTHDAY! Celebrate halfway to your or a loved one's next B-Day, just because you can.

RANDOM BIRTHDAYS. Like 41, for instance -- because the worst is over, and now everyone can relax.

Seduction Dinner

Get a babysitter for the kids and spend a spicy night at home.

ROAD TO ROMANCE. The kids are away and -- big sigh! -- it's just the two of you. We all know where this is headed, so let dinner take you there. Begin with drinks in the den, sample the salmon in the dining room...then end with a sensuous dessert in the bedroom. Take some Vanity Fair® napkins along for the ride.

SENSUAL SHORTCUT. You know what he likes. No, not that -- yet. I mean food. That one dish that takes him from zero to 60 in one bite. Don't tell me you're going to serve it in the dining room!

A Storied Affair

Take the usual book club up a notch.

GO TO THE SOURCE. Why just invite the book when you can invite the author? Someone in your town has written something.

Hot Hardware

NOT-SO-HARDWARE. Your local home center is filled with pipe fittings and locking nuts that cost pennies and make fabulous napkin rings. Especially with a beautiful napkin like Vanity Fair®. After dinner, invite your guests to see what they can create by connecting their pieces together!

Legendary Homecoming

Celebrate the ones you haven't seen in awhile.

SPOTLIGHT ON YOU. Ambush the Guest of Honor with his/her own biography and favorite hometown memories. Pull out embarrassing old photos and order in from his/her favorite local restaurants. They may have forgotten the time they snuck out and got caught by their parents - but you sure haven't!
