We always focus so much on the food, and the table, and the drinks, and the atmosphere. But the art of planning a truly great party has to begin with the guest list. So pretend for a moment that you’re planning what will be (for you) the ultimate dinner party. You want conversation that will span generations and include discussions that are witty, literate, intellectual, political, and just generally stimulating in all aspects. The participants include yourself and nine other people; living or dead, real or fictional, famous or infamous. Be creative, and add your list in a comment. Here’s mine………
Steven King
Erma Bombeck
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Eleanor Roosevelt
Jesus Christ
George Carlin
Maya Angelou
Benjamin Franklin
Leonardo da Vinci
Can’t you just imagine some of the conversations?? C’mon now….its your turn! 😀
Angieland....where I get to be Queen!

Mahatma Gandhi
Jesus Christ
Ellen DeGeneres
Sandra Day O’Connor
Tom Hanks
Carl Jung
Albert Einstein
Georgia O’Keefe
Amelia Earhart
Ooooh….great list, Deanna! I’d like to pencil my name in on your guest list, too! 😀
I wouldn’t mind a pencil in on your list either my dear.
I didn’t see my name on either list!!!! (I’ll do the dishes)
dang, where is my name!
oh ok, what about Robin Williams??
I’d never hide you in the kitchen, Lisa! How about bartending instead. 😀
Oooooh…he’d be a great one, Kaye! Now who are your other eight??
lol Angie, I told Lisa she could be the wine steward.
I’m afraid Robin might dominate the convo too much…have you ever seen him in an interview situation?
Good point, D. But there would definitly never be a lull in the conversation! 😀
my eight would be
Jesus Christ
Marna Hartjen
My mom
Her mom…I never met her..the above three and next one are all people I lost, that I would like to be able to talk to again
My brother Ronnie, who died when I was 13 and he was almost 18
I wouldn’t want all famous people…just people who in my heart I would like to talk to ….
I will have to think on some of the others…
