Good Morning Darlings!
I am so tickled to introduce you to our Guest Blogger today, Lydia Quibbin-Jones.
Lydia is a full-time mom and part-time designer for Hinkley Lighting. She is also a wine enthusiast and dreams of owning her own vineyard in Santa Barbara someday.
We are going to learn all about choosing the correct stemware for wine.
Take it away, Lydia!

Good Morning Darlings!
I am Super Bowl obsessed. We are throwing a small party at the house and I can’t wait to have everyone there, hollering at the television and eating and drinking inordinate amounts of food and beer. And cocktails.
Time to start thinking about the decor. Hmmm…what to do?
Come on in for decorating ideas.

Good Morning Darlings!
Secrets are the most fun. Well, when they are happy secrets. Like birthday surprises, raindrops on roses and brown paper packages tied up with string. Some of my favorite things!
My friends at Black Tie Barbecue keep the most fun secrets ever!
Wanna hear a secret?

The lovely people at Deep South Magazine have allowed me to write a holiday etiquette column for them.
Do you need a few tips? Maybe a little giggle?

Good Morning Darlings!
Every year, Holly, Eric and I have our annual Christmas dinner. In the past we have dined at Dolce, Farm Burger and some other a’sundry spots.
Where did we go this year?

Good Morning Darlings!
Now that I have dished almost all the behind-the-scenes gossip about our holiday party, I am ready to dish a bit more.
Some tidbits inside…and then party pictures!

Good Morning Darlings!
These ramblings about the other side of the party are about as candid as you will ever see me get here. I am laying it all out for you. And sometimes, it ain’t pretty.
What else could possibly happen?
