propose.>>

Here's one that one of our community-mates thought up - we haven't tried it 
yet, but will when we move in I'm sure.  It's kind of a vacation at home.
Wish you could go to Hawaii??  Dress in mumus & grass skirts, make pina 
coladas, play Hawaian music, do the hula, play slide guitar, cook Hawaian 
food, turn on fans with warm breezes, hang pictures of palm trees on the 
walls, pile some sand around the patio.
Prefer Mexico?  easy:  Mexican food, costumes, Mariachis, margaritas and 
cerveza
Paris?  posters of the Eiffel tower on the wall, crepes, escargo (sp?), 
French wine, French music, can-can dancers, artists with their canvas.....

Each month, a different subgroup could dream one up and cook and all.....
sounds fun, eh?

I can't wait til we can do stuff like that in our common house - it's getting 
close...
