You Sank My Battleship!

So many occasions come to mind when I see these nifty ice trays! Going away party for someone who is going on a boat trip around the world, or for a friend or family member leaving to go into the navy. Wonderful idea for a game night ( just make sure you play Battleship )You could also use these for a land and sea theme alongside an assortment of seafood, perfect for a Titanic themed party, or a wedding shower for a couple going on a cruise for their honeymoon! The possibilities are endless!....you can find them at fredflare.com !

Dance Playlist

1. Just Dance - Lady GaGa
2. The Dirty Boogie - The Brian Setzer Orchestra


The inspiration from this weeks playlist stems from my love of dancing! I took all kinds of different dance classes all throughout middle school and high school. While I do not dance anymore myself, I still LOVE to watch it! Any kind of dancing will do, from ballet to break dancing! I hope these songs inspire you to bust a move this week!

P is for Party

I have been inspired recently to throw a Cookie Monster themed party. Perhaps this party will happen for my 22nd birthday.I want it to be modern and fun (what's more fun than The Cookie Monster?)So far...I'm thinking black, white,and cookie monster blue....and houndstooth!Hmmm...I wonder what it would look like to use Cookie Crisp cereal in glass containers all around the party space?!

My new favorite holiday CD!The Hotel Cafe Presents Winter Songs is an album with a lovely soothing blend of female singer-songwriters, crooning s all into the holiday spirit of relaxation.
