Candy Cane Crackers, at Sur la TableCHRISTMAS PARTY ACTIVITY:
Poinsettia Holiday Crackers, from Pier 1 ImportsInvite several friends and family members over - whoever is in town and has not left for the holidays. Make sure to invite any single people or people with far away families. That way none of your friends spends Christmas Eve alone. Light a fire in your fireplace if you have one; make things cozy; put on soft Christmas music; and offer festive treats, snacks and entrees. Besides any cocktails or alcohol you might serve specially tonight, have coffee, hot cocoa, hot tea and nonalcoholic punch or cider available.
Open holiday crackers and invite guests to wear the silly hats.
