It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas…kinda.

Here at My Mustard, we like to celebrate and well… following My Mustard’s 13^th (unlucky for some!) Birthday, this year hasn’t really been one for celebrating.

But… when there is a will, there is a way!

The fabulous June Cory organised an expertly crafted Christmas-do; virtual, of course.

We enjoyed lots of drinks, including gin from Puddingstone Distillery, wine, baileys and a signature ‘Mustard’ cocktail, that fortunately tasted like a Terry’s chocolate orange instead of actual Mustard.

We had snacks and dinner prepared and delivered by Cote At Home and Restaurant Kits.

We transformed into Strictly Come Dancing characters and solved a Murder Mystery case, thanks to Red Herring Games and the wonderful, not-over-the-top-at-all acting of our narrator Antonia Brickell.

Georgia organised a quiz where we all submitted 5 secret facts about ourselves and then individually guessed the offender.

Chris from Fun Casino Nights tuned in and swept us off to virtual Vegas for some roulette, black-jack and horse racing.

Followed by a secret-Santa gift swap, delivered by Santa (Amazon) himself and cocktail making.

Of course, no My Mustard party would be complete without a generous sprinkling of laughter, explicit Pictionary, friendly chat and Cards Against Humanity.

As much as I would have loved to be in the same room as my friends and co-workers, it was a plus having to stumble only a few yards into my bed at the end of night.

I want to say a huge thank you to June who put so much into organising and preparing such a fabulous night. It was definitely one to remember (well, before the ‘Mustard’ cocktails anyway!).
