My brother and brother in law would probably like a beer, and my sister would like wine or some fancy drink. But they can get over it and have some iced tea, right?

Last time I hosted a party DCUM told me I needed these drinks and no one drank them. Everyone drank the bottled water I provided. If it's not alcohol, people around here just don't drink their calories. It took me forever to get rid of those sodas, teas, and lemonades.


Make a simple syrup with some fresh-squeezed lemon juice. It can be mixed with water if anyone wants lemonade, and if not, it's a small investment that freezes well.

For me it was the opposite, I put 2 six packs worth of beer in a cooler and they were gone so quickly. I was surprised and had to go to the basement and get more.


Uh, that’s not the opposite.

The alcohol culture on dcum is out of control. My family and friends would think I was nuts if I offered alcohol at a children's birthday party. And we are all ok with drinking.

you do not need booze at a 3 yr olds afternoon party. seltzer water and honest juice boxes are fine.

Just family is coming over, about 18 people total. 6 children. Alcohol is expensive and it's a daytime birthday party for my 3 year old. We don't need alcohol, do we?
