Supper Club....Murder Mystery at Mardi Gras

Supper club time again. We were supposed to host, but Heather kindly volunteered, since we just had Connor and needed a little time to regroup:) She did a wonderful job hosting a fun Mardi gras party with a murder mystery game. We each had a character and we had to try to figure out who killed Mr. Pierre. I played the character of Connika Gothica, an eccentric novelist who was Mr Pierre's next door neighbor. I didn't even look like myself with my wig and fake eyelashes:) Dusty played Cayenne Pepper, the family chef. We had so much fun throughout the evening trying to discover who the murderer was. In the end, Todd, the family lawyer was the murderer and I was the only one who guessed right, winning the coveted bottle of champagne. We had yummy shrimp jambalaya and finished up with a "King's Cake" which is a popular Louisiana tradition. The mint juleps were also in full affect:) Next party is definitely at our house, and my mind's already working on what the theme should be!
