Ideas for small family gathering? (mander.xyz)

It'll be my birthday soon and I've no idea what to do to celebrate with my family.

Usually we gather and go eat out or make a meal at home but I'm uninspired about any restaurants or cafes atm, and I've no idea what menu to suggest if the gathering happens at home.

So perhaps you guys can recommend either something that's fun to cook or easy or maybe a type of dish you enjoyed somewhere. Or maybe you have other suggestions, like going to the cinema- but there aren't any interesting movies on now.

First world problems I guess, any ideas?

My family and I play simple games like uno stacko (Jenga) or bananagrams. Jackbox is also super fun and can get even people who don't normally enjoy games involved.

On the sideline my sister and I also will play a drinking bingo game for every time our parents do something predictable or annoying, which makes things more tolerable if you have complicated family relationships.

If your family likes singing you could also do karaoke? Or go bowling or mini golf?
