You Are Magnetic!

Good Morning Darlings!

Happy Valentine’s Day to all my sweeties out there! Eric and I are sleeping in, making breakfast together, will watch a dozen movies and then make pizza dough. We never go out on Valentine’s Day. Why go out when you can get all cuddly inside? It’s cold out there!

But I bet you are all ready with a great day for your loved one, right?

Oops, did you forget to buy a gift?

Tour The Walking Dead

Good Morning Darlings!

You know, I love talking about my friends, their restaurants and hotels, plus all the marvelous things they have planned for us.

But sometimes I forget about promoting me, Patti.

I have a super cool surprise for you!

Diesel – TWD Viewing Party

Saturday, February 11th, 2012

Good Morning Darlings!

I am obsessed with zombies. I just cannot help myself. Since childhood, I have loved all things that go bump in the night. My favorite cartoon was the Groovy Ghoulies. As much as I loved Bandstand and Soul Train, Saturday was never complete without Creature Feature. And you just couldn’t have a slumber party without a gaggle of screaming girls watching old Bela Lugosi flicks. It just wouldn’t be the same.

What does that have to do with Dinner Parties?

Good Morning Darlings!

I do love Valentine’s Day. And night. And luxury.

And old classic movies.

How can I tie them all together?

Good Morning Darlings!

Eek, eek and more eek! I cannot wait for Sunday so I can see what’s going on with Rick, Shane, Laurie and the rest of the post apocalyptic gang on The Walking Dead.

There are two hotspots in town set up for viewing.

Hot Spot Number One!

The Lodge Cast Iron Cookbook

Friday, February 3rd, 2012

Good Morning Darlings!

Cast iron cooking is second nature to most southern cooks.

I have not been one of those cooks.

How did I get turned in the right direction?
