Muddle (squish) a few pieces of pineapple and 1/2 oz. of Cointreau in the bottom of a mixing glass, then add ice. Add 1 oz. of vodka and 1 oz. of pineapple juice and stir. Strain into a chilled Martini glass and top with a splash of champagne or sparkling wine. Garnish with a piece of pineapple and a tube of lip gloss (just kidding!).

Grab a deck of Truth or Dare cards from a game store, then make your own "bonus round" cards created just for your group. Print them from your computer and put in a box for your girls to draw from for extra credit. Don't stress about special paper or design; just get the words on paper so you can have a great time. Here are a couple of examples to inspire you:
Dare: Show us your best supermodel walk (and remember to look pissed off!).
Truth: Tell us the name of your alter ego and how naughty she's been! -

Ask your girls to bring their "rag" magazines with them. You can also check out online beauty blogs and watch YouTube girls' night videos and scenes from "Sex and the City."

I love the salad bar concept--and my favorite thing to do is theme it--like a Chinese Chicken Salad Bar, Mexican Tostada Salad Bar, Soup and Salad Bar, Pasta Salad Bar--you're catching on. Go with the concept that you are best prepared to pull off, in other words what you can serve up with the most ease. Women are great with pot luck, so ask your girls to bring something too!
