imeeji_frontstage | HSS holiday party

Who: HSS and friends
Where: HSS dorm
When: Forward-dated to 430

[Tis the season for holiday parties! If you're close to anyone on HSS, you've definitely received an invite for this one off-screen.]

[In the dorm itself, someone has hauled a big pine tree in a planter into the center of the main room. It's undecorated except for the lights, so far, but there are craft materials nearby - glitter and glue and pine cones and ribbons and brightly-colored paper and everything else you might need to make your own decorations. There’s also a box out, filled with the decorations everyone made at the HSS party last year, ready for hanging]

[Strands of lights and delicate dangling snowflakes hang from doorways, and holly garlands give the whole dorm a festive atmosphere]

[Hurricane has been busy in the kitchen, and the table is set with a Christmas ham, prime rib, fried chicken, mini hasselback potatoes, mashed potatoes cauliflower gratin, stuffed acorn squash, maple pecan sweet potatoes, a citus and fresh greens salad, and cranberry sauce. For dessert, there's a variety of puddings as well as Santa's hat cheesecake bites. The drinks include eggnogg, hot apple cider, and enough booze to spread a little extra Christmas cheer]
