Hi-
I am doing this show for the first time and was wondering if anyone could give me some tips on how to outline this cute theme?

I got tv trivia online to present a quiz for some prize, I am doing the suggested menus like tempting tapas and susan's cheesy broken heart triangles, will have lawnboy lemonade and maybe that Wysteria Hysteria punch. Then talking about some products that may be suggested for each character. And that's about all the material I have. Could anyone share how they outlined there show to this theme? And add any more suggestions to make this show cute and successful! And So I can make it all flow well.

thanks!

Do a "search" for Desperate Housewives on the board ~ there have been a few discussions here that might be helpful (none that I remember in detail). Would you mind sharing your quiz with us though? LOVE this idea!

Susan :)
 
Heather,
I have posted af ew desperate housewifes games etc here on another thread. If you would like I can email them to you.
 
DH filesI am a member of a Yahoo group and another member there posted the stuff that she uses for her DH shows. I have never used them myself, but it looks like a lot of fun. I asked her today if she minded if I shared with this board and she told me to go ahead and share. Of course she just mentioned to remind you to change her personal info to yours. Hope you find some of them useful.
