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?

Good Morning Darlings!
When our sweet friend, Stephanie, asked Eric and I to join her Cookbookery Club back in December, we were thrilled. The premise – choose a cookbook and allow everyone to prepare a dish, then get together and chow down.
That sounds perfect for us! Of course we would love to join!
This month was very exciting!

Good Morning Darlings!
Conversation last night at our house:
Me: “Honey, we should invite Rick & Denise over on Monday for the Chinese New Year. We can drink the sake they brought us in the gorgeous sake set they gifted us with and I can make pad thai.”
Eric: Crickets – then laughter. “Honey, sake is Japanese and pad thai, is, well, Thai.”
Me: “Um…”
I really should get out more.
Thank goodness for my friend Sofia, in NYC. She knows how to celebrate Chinese New Year. She sent me wonderful recipes for the most fun cocktails for your Chinese New Year.
Thanks, Sofia!

Good Morning Darlings!
OMG – it is Golden Globes Day! My Superbowl!
This is so much better than the Academy Awards because all the celebs are drinking it up and you never know what they will say. It’s my favorite!
It’s also bestie Holly’s birthday, so Eric, besties John & Holly and I will be eating copious amounts of lasagne, garlic bread, bacon petit fours made by my friend Brandon at Bear Maker Bakery (bacon petit fours y’all!!) and a layer lemon cake, all washed down with champagne, cocktails and Whopper candies. Then we will scream at the television and critique all the dresses. I am SO excited. God bless Eric, who I am sure will eat with us and then excuse himself to play video UNO or watch a Star Trek episode or four.
While I am getting ready, I am letting my buddy, Katie, in NYC, take the wheel and whip up some awesome cocktails for your viewing pleasure.
How do you celebrate the Golden Globes?
Take it away, Katie!

Good Morning Darlings!
My resolutions have lasted about one split second.
What made me break?
