Murder Mystery Dinner

Well, I find myself with both the time and the inclination to blog tonight.  So now the question is, what to blog about?  And I guess that would be the murder mystery dinner that I put together last week.  So here we go.
My group of friends has talked about doing one of these for forever, but never have.  So I finally decided I was ready to take on the project and scheduled a night.  It turned out great!
We had Navajo Tacos for dinner, which didn't really go along with the theme of the night, but they sure were tasty! 
The party was supposed to be a bridal shower for one of the fictional characters.  This made it possible for us to have our party without any men.  (Not that we don't like men, of course.  It's that this was supposed to be a girls' night.)  This supposed bridal shower was taking place at Lady Godiva's Day Spa, which specializes in chocolate.  Chocolate body wraps, chocolate baths, chocolate facials....  the works.  Since chocolate body wraps and baths sounded like fun - but a lot of work - we stuck with chocolate facials. 

It really was an honest-to-goodness facial recipe.  And our skin did feel softer afterward.  And best of all - it made for some great pictures.

Three people died that night.  Pictured above is one of the bodies at the scene of the crime.  But never fear - we did figure out who the killer was, and brought her to justice.  Here she is.  Don't be taken in by her pathetic appearance.  She's really very dangerous.

 

Unfortunately, there were two murder weapons that were not found, and so still remain hidden somewhere in Kristen's house.  We had her husband hide them for us, and I'm afraid he had way too much fun with it.  

Good thing we had fun, too, or he would've been in big trouble.  Thanks for a great night, girls!
