Good Morning Darlings!
Now that I have dished almost all the behind-the-scenes gossip about our holiday party, I am ready to dish a bit more.
Some tidbits inside…and then party pictures!

Good Morning Darlings!
These ramblings about the other side of the party are about as candid as you will ever see me get here. I am laying it all out for you. And sometimes, it ain’t pretty.
What else could possibly happen?

Good Morning Darlings!
Saturday night was our annual Black Tie Soiree and we are still recuperating.
Eric and I took special pains to ensure that everything was in working order, but you can’t help when things sometimes go awry.

Good Morning Darlings!
Eric and I are one day from our big Black Tie Christmas Party tomorrow night.
We’ve chosen a very special theme for the party that I will reveal to you next week. Our guests are sure to be surprised and delighted. The details have been a hoot to put together and we are so tickled that we get to have our very own prom every year, even though Eric and I didn’t meet in high school.
This is better than the high school prom.
Our prom is better.
See you next week!
xoxo, Patti

Good Morning Darlings!
My dear friends at The Ritz-Carlton Buckhead have planned a very exclusive New Year’s Eve for just 20 lucky couples. 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.

Good Morning Darlings!
The state of Georgia has so much to love. We are the home to the Atlanta Falcons, the Atlanta Braves, Jimmy Carter and Scarlett O’Hara.
Who is our most famous Georgian?

No one likes to discuss parties and etiquette as much as I do, but it’s fun to get a fresh perspective now and again.

With all the turkey put away, let’s talk holiday baking. We can talk about Christmas now, right?
