Good Morning Darlings!
I would say that mine is a charmed life. That very fact was confirmed when I was invited to visit St. Simons Island for four days last week. In fact, it was so fantastic that I have deemed this to be St. Simons week on Anatomy of a Dinner Party!
Island Life Inside!

Good Morning Darlings!
Sometimes I receive things in the mail that are a surprise. This little package was one of those days.
This is the fun stuff!

Good Morning Darlings!
When I arrived home from St. Simons yesterday, this precious package was waiting for me. I think this is the best idea for Easter. Especially those of us with no children.
You will love this!

If you are anything like me, you are very excited about the royal wedding coming up in April. I remember watching the wedding of Charles and Diana and I am no less thrilled to witness the upcoming nuptials of William and Kate.
I have a sneak peek into their world today!
You can’t miss this!

Good Morning Darlings!
Although my birthday was in February, my dear friends over at Cake Hag have been trying to get my birthday cake to me.
I got it this weekend. The only stipulation? I had to guess what the cake was filled with.
Check it out.

Oh how I love to meet new folks. And the other night at The Big Gay Supper Club, I did just that.
Invited by creator, Rande Head, and held at Rosebud, a restaurant I’ve been dying to try, it was a fun night out.
Lots of fun photos inside.

Good Morning Darlings!
Best of Atlanta is an annual event held by Atlanta Magazine to fete the best of the best. I was invited by my sweet friend Stuart from The Foundry, the swanky design showroom that has produced two of the coolest parties I have attended in recent memory.
In fact, Stuart and I are in talks to produce an Anatomy of a Dinner Party dinner at their showroom. I am thrilled to be partnering with one of the most sought after companies in the city. And, I don’t have total confirmation, but one designer friend of mine is in talks to design each table. Stayed tuned and let me know how you feel about this venture. There are others in the works, too!
Join the party? It’s the Best!

Good Morning Darlings!
Remember on my birthday, my sweet friend Allen gifted me with a homemade chicken pot pie? Goodness gracious, it was delicious. And, as expected, gobbled up like hungry badgers by E and me.
It looks so delicious!

Good Morning Darlings!
Well, it’s been a week but it seemed like the birthday fiesta went on and on. Friday night, Saturday night and Sunday Sunday Sunday (insert motocross announcer voice here). Sunday was my actual birthday and we gathered everyone to eat pizza, leftover nibbles from Saturday night and drink some lively libations. What I didn’t know was that Eric had asked our dear Lisa to bake me a cake. What a cake!
You’re invited! Come on in.
