Whiskey Bar

Now this would be a party my husband would LOVE to attend. As for me, I'm not one to drink whiskey. However, I appreciate a great idea when I see one. I am definitely keeping this idea in my inspiration files!

Graduation Celebrations...

I think these "graduation cap" cupcakes are super cute!! I can just hear the graduation music in the background now. If you're celebrating a graduation this year and need a dessert that will have people talking...you've got to try this! Get the recipe here...

Get your Margarita on!

I am totally digging this inspiration board from Camille Styles! A) Because I love all of Camille's party inspiration...you must check out her blog and B) I LOVE LOVE LOVE Cinco de Mayo!!

My hubby and I have been whipping up margaritas a lot recently. I don't know if it is his Texas roots, my obsession with mexican food or the warm weather coming, but we just can't seem to get enough of that delicious cocktail. Here is our recipe (makes two cocktails) ....

Mix the following ingredients into a cocktail shaker:

Ice
2 shots of Tequila
1 shot of Grand Marnier (or Cointreau)

Shake and then pour into two cocktail glasses with ice. Add 1/2 shot of orange juice and 1/2 shot of lime juice to each glass....maybe more depending on how strong you like your drink! And of course, don't forget to garnish with salt and a lime wedge.

Thankful

I apologize for my lack of posts this week but if you have been following the news you've probably heard of the terrible devastation in Alabama due to the tornadoes that hit yesterday. Thankfully my family and friends are safe and did not experience any damage to their homes, but several Alabamians did and the images are just unbelievable. My prayers go out to all who have experienced loss due to this horrible storm.

I hate to leave this post on such a depressing note, so one thing I am happy about right now is that the  Royal Wedding is tomorrow!!  My DVR is set so that I can watch this very happy occasion unfold when I wake up!  I'm sure some of you have planned viewing parties, and if so, you should go to The TomKat Studio to check out their fabulous FREE printables!! Cheerio...

Carrots...

I am in LOVE with this bright and colorful Easter party from Pizzazzerie! It is fun to see an Easter celebration that is not drowning in pastel colors. I don't know about you but sometimes by the time Easter rolls around, I am tired of looking at eggs, which is why I am crazy about this carrot themed party!!
