Eats

On the lookout for a super easy appetizer for your next Dinner Party?
 (doesn't hurt if it's healthy too, right?!)

may I present:


cucumber with hummus

hollow out pieces of cucumber
one dollop hummus
add sprig of basil for garnish :)
Whahlah!

Note: you could also put a drop of ranch dressing in the hallowed cucumber to switch it up a bit, maybe even with a piece of shaved carrot for the garnish ;) ...


Day-time Dinner Party

This coming Saturday I have a Day-time Spring Party to attend. There will be guests of all ages and family members. With attendance like this, it's important to look your best, while staying a dash on the conservative side.
(don't want uncle tony catching a glimpse of side boob) ..hehe

See below for some great Spring time Party Dress Ideas
