Good Morning Darlings!
I just got this notice from my sweet friend Marsha and cannot wait to go! Usually I am very lazy about reading press releases (okay, about everything…)but this totally caught my eye.
Oysters. Beer. The Four Seasons, y’all. If you wear a collar and don’t show up in flip flops, I bet they will serve you.
I’m going. Eric does not share my love of oysters. Who’s going with me?
Marsha, I need the deets!

This is my fantasy centerpiece for Super Bowl. With all the calories removed, of course.
I don't think I have enough guests to build this.....
What are you serving at your Super Bowl soiree?

New Year, Fresh Ideas.
White always signifies freshly laundered sheets, fresh clean sheets of notebook paper. A new start.
What does the color white mean to you?

Today is our sweet Holly’s birthday and last night we celebrated by watching the Golden Globes and eating lots of comfort food.

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!

My resolutions have lasted about one split second.
What made me break?

Everyone is talking about The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo.
Have you seen it?
