Hello (Oscar) Weekend

Hello! It's Oscar Weekend. I love parties, and I love planning parties, especially when it's an Oscar Party. Dressing up and toasting the year's best movies is a fun tradition we have at my home.   This year, I am excited by all of the nominees...I can't wait to watch the Red Carpet arrivals, too!

Are you planning on watching the Show?

 I am excited to see Ellen DeGeneres is hosting again. I think she's fantastic and I have been playing Fitz and The Tantrums (the band that plays the music in the Promo)  tunes all week! 

Have you seen her Promo for the 2014 Show? ...The song is so catchy 

(you can listen here)

 I am also excited to be sharing some of my favorite Oscar Party ideas this year on my Pinterest board, here . Like I said, it's a tradition to host our very own Oscar Viewing Party.  I always make it a point to order from my favorite cookie company, Elenis.

Eleni's does an amazing job of creating cookies to coordinate with the Best Picture Nominees.  This is just one of the many delicious idea I have planned for our Sunday Soiree.

How about you? Will you be watching this Sunday?

 

See you there!

Taking the Good with the Bad

For those that need this today, I hope you can see this - there is always a tomorrow. In life, there is always a bad day, even those that seem to have everything, suffer from a bad day. You are not alone in this life. A bad day does not equal a bad life - everyone gets down, everyone suffers at some point or other. That's life.  What you must know is that there is ALWAYS a tomorrow. So get started and live today in this beautiful life!

How Will You Spend Sunday

I have always loved Sundays. A hot cup of coffee and good book are on the top of my to do list!

How about you - how will you spend your Sunday?
