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!
I know I really should post more recipes, but I’ve been very busy.
Now, I know that is a terrible excuse, so today I hope to make it up to you.
Come on in!

Good Morning Darlings!
I am still dreaming of Easter entertaining. We will have a small group of friends over for dinner (when I told Eric we were hosting 20pp, he was a bit surprised. My answer? “It is small compared to 175 for the Christmas Party!”) God bless my husband for putting up with my antics.
Anyhoo, I am still poring over ideas for our special spring soiree. Take a look and see what I’ve found.
Hop to it, Bunnies!

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!

Good Morning Darlings!
Eric and I bought a Flip camera a few weeks ago with the hopes of making some fun videos.
Cooking videos, you naughty children!! lol
I would like to share our first offering. Chef Jeffrey Gardner of South City Kitchen and Food Network’s Chopped, came by to teach me how to cook in a tajine. The tajine was sent to me by our friends at Beka.
And now, without further adieu…

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.
