Snapshots from our Sayonara Soiree...bidding farewell Japanese-style

Our dear friends are moving to Japan for a year

and we sent them off in style with a 

Japanese Themed Dinner

(see invitations HERE and set up HERE)

a few snapshots of the big day...

the sushi platters with a little seaweed love...

the signature drink of the evening...

The Green-TEA-ni

so ZEN to make:

to make one Green-TEA-ni

4oz cold green tea

1/2 oz sake

squeeze of lime

 and a simple send off for each family, 

Edamame seeds so they can have a little bit of Japan growing in their home...

Sayonara to the Stephens,

so excited to hear about all the adventures!

and I could not have had such a big crowd at my humble abode 

without the help of Kleenex Hand Towels

Sushi Soiree Set Up...with some Sumo Size help!

The party prep for our 

Sayonara Soiree 

is well underway!

The seaweed heart "confetti" to decorate the tables is ready...

(I have been wanting to try this since I saw Jenn from Rook No. 17's,

 GENIUS idea to use a paper punch  on toasted seaweed snacks...

see her full post here)

the hot and spicy, 

wasabi orchid centerpieces are in the works...

the bar is set...

(Sake and Sapporo, anyone?)

Lastly, the Sumo Soap 

and Kleenex Hand Towels...

are ready to tackle any Tsunami Size messes in the bathroom!

(wet hands, last minute wipe ups...bring it on we are ready!)

Let the
パーティー
(party)
begin...

Sushi Sayonara Soiree

We are getting ready to say

Sayonara to a special family that is moving to Japan...

The planning is well under way and I am getting
"all my sushi in a ROE"!

We are going to have a Sumo sized crowd, 

 so I will be relying heavily on

Kleenex Hand Towels!

Each ゲスト(guest) will get a clean, fresh, dry towel 

and I will not have to worry about dirty, damp, wadded up hand towels 

all over the bathroom.
Not only will we be saying Sayonara to the Stephens, but any gross germs too.   
After all, hands are only as clean as the towel used to dry them.

Kleenex wants you to try them and has given me a box to give away.

Please leave me a comment and a winner will be chosen at random on July 31st.

(open to US residents only).

I can't wait to show you all the party prep and fun!
