2012 Apocalypses Won't Stop the Celebration!

Zombies, Mayans, Horsemen – the list of end-of-the-world perpetrators has grown quite lengthy of late. We could go into all the doomsday prophecies and mumbo jumbo about apocalypses in 2012 circulating the web, but I prefer to talk about the real issue on the matter. What to put in my survival kit?

Whatever comes our way, cupcakes, cocktails and all other forms of celebration must live on!

We all have our favorite party drink and mine is…TEQUILA! Preferably a really good white one, so I think I’ll need to make sure all the Don Julio I can find is safely stowed away for my survival. Oh, and my margarita glasses, too.

The real challenge will be music – I live on Pandora. But, of course, there won’t be any internet in the event the Horsemen take over, so I have to make sure to pack my iPod complete with lots of party playlists. Can’t forget the charger, either!

Keep your Twinkies. I know they say those treats will survive a nuclear apocalypse, but so will a bunch of boxed Duncan Hines cake mixes and frosting if they’re stowed away safely. No party of mine will be without cupcakes!

My collection of nail polishes, remover and nail files must make their way into my kit. I know everyone else might go for the LBD, but trust me, so long as your nails look fab, so will those jeans and t-shirt you’re wearing.

This is a stretch, but I don’t think I could survive an apocalypse without my brother-in-law’s famous Taco Dip. I’ll make sure he’s safe and sound with enough ingredients to last me.

Speaking of keeping him safe, I’ll have to make sure I get my favorite friends and family in my kit, too, because, really, what’s a party without your best company to help you celebrate?

I guess all that’s left is décor – I think a disco ball covers it.

OK, so taking a look at my list it seems like I’ll need more of a bunker than a kit, but that just means a safe place to hide from the zombies to party all night long!

I’m choosing to ignore the slight possibility we’ll lose electric with these items on my list, but what’s your party essential?

Could you give cocktails up so long as you had a great party playlist?
