Luaus A Traditional Type Of Party

Luaus are defined in the
dictionary as a traditional
Hawaiian party with entertainment,
they are a great deal of fun to
plan and enjoy. The best time of
year for a luau is during the
summer when it can be held out of
doors. However, some of the best
I have attended have been during
the winter when people just needed
to get a taste of summer!

During the winter, the foods are a
little more difficult to come by,
but there are standbys that can be
used quite effectively.

During the summer, the host can go
so far as to dig a pit (if they
live in the country) and roast a
pig, there is nothing as tender as
roasted pork from a pit, wrapped
in burlap bags to keep the meat
juicy, in Hawaii they wrap them in
palm branches, but if you live
anywhere but on the coast these
may be hard to acquire.

Be sure if you get them from your
neighbor you have their
permission, and that they are
invited to the party!

I am always amazed at the number
of people who have grass skirts
tucked away in their closets!
People just let loose at luaus,
learning to do the hula can be a
lot of fun, and if you ask around,
I am sure you know at least one
person who knows the hula well
enough to teach the basics to a
bunch of friends.

You can go online and type in
luau, and find an unlimited source
of decorations, from grass skirts,
to leis, banners, drink straws,
glasses that look like coconuts;
just about anything you can think
or is available.

It can also be fun to create your
own decorations, a cookie sheet of
sand with miniature (doll) sandals
and other decorations make a great
centerpiece. Lay a dolls bikini
out under a miniature umbrella for
another cute decoration.

Leis can be created from tissue
paper by stringing flowers onto a
thread using a needle. This can
be a fun evening for parents to
spend with their children, keeping
them involved in the fun. Use your
imagination and have fun.
