Oh Happy Party Day!

Wednesday, May 24th, 2017

Good Morning Darlings!

I get so many emails everyday touting everything from vacation spots to dog collars. It could make a girl’s head spin.

Once in a while, something comes across my desk that makes my head spin in a good way. Today that something is Oh Happy Day – a website packed to the brim with everything I love and makes me scream “TAKE MY MONEY!”

With Memorial Day almost here – can you believe it? Some friends actually had to remind me that it was THIS WEEKEND. Gah. I am so not ready. But I might be if I can get speedy shipping from my friends at Oh Happy Day. Take a look a some of their adorable offerings. And, no, they didn’t send me any product, I’m just in love.

Peacock Balloons! Oh my word.

Beach ball napkins!  I need a beach house, y’all!

Step aside, Imma need this to serve lemon layer cake on.

I’ll take the ‘Cheers’ cocktail stirrers, please.

 

You get the idea. If you need me, I’ll be shopping!! Tomorrow, we’ll talk about grilling out.

All I Hear Are Cricuts

Good Morning Darlings!

No, I haven’t stopped using my spell check. The cricuts I’m talking about are not the creepy crawly kind, but those swanky little machines that allow you to blow everyone away with your creativity!

You have to see what they can do!

Good Morning Darlings!

Do you remember last year when I was just dying over Swoozie’s Corkcicles?

Oh my goodness, me, they come in a variety of colors now! LOVE THEM!

Colorful Corkcicles!

A fresh color from Monday – Friday! And at $24.95, they are still the coolest (get it?) hostess gift around.

Hint, Hint

I’m just sayin’!

Good Morning Darlings!

Did you guess? What is this thing?

It’s an Asparagus Peeler!
This utensil not only peels the asparagus for even cooking, but it also snips the tough ends. Did we mention you can also use it for green beans and sugar snap peas? Progressive International Asparagus Peeler, $5, Amazon.com

This would make a fun hostess gift. And for $5, you could stock up!
