Cinco de Mayo celebrations

The other day, we were discussing a Cinco de Mayo party in the elevator and someone outside our staff asked why you would plan a party around Mayo.  Of course, we laughed, it’s funny.  And then decided why not do a party around an all-American condiment with a Spanish flair.  Yes, we are aware that they do not necessarily go together, but aren’t we all from different nationalities – that’s what makes America; America.  

Here’s what we came up with.

We have to have a 5 foot tall Mayo jar as the centerpiece to the party standing in a display of spring flowers.  Then we have to have Spanish rice, black and refried beans, taco’s and Mexican hamburgers.  To tie it all in we need dishes to hail the Mayonnaise and spring; so we have to have potato salad, deviled eggs, ham sandwiches or wraps, mint tea and margaritas. Of course both have to have little umbrellas.

For entertainment drag races.  Make sure you get permission and the permits.  The ticket cost for this entertainment without them is expensive.
