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?

Still on this “I should eat healthy” kick. Day Two.
What’s left in the pantry?

Good Morning Darlings!
Welp, all the partying is done (until Super Bowl…), so I should really consider eating more healthily.
Let’s see what’s in the pantry and fridge.

Good Morning Darlings!
I am plum full up from the weekend. Scores of tamales, Frangelico cake, cheese dip, guacamole, salsa, enchiladas, more chips. And a marathon of Being Human yesterday on the couch. Dang, that show is good.
Get to the food already!

The lovely people at Ross Dress For Less recently sent me a $25 gift certificate and let me have at it.
And so I did.
What did I get?

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!
There are so many things to do in our fair city. Especially during the holidays. You might take in the decorated windows at 200 Peachtree or stop in at The Ritz-Carlton’s lobby bar, Lumen for a swanky cocktail.
I’ll let you in on a fab new spot downtown…

Why travel when you can enjoy a glorious evening filled with the finest wine, food and accommodations in town? If, by some chance, you are popping the question this December 31st, this will be the place to do it. It will be an unforgettable evening.
