Got invited to a block blog party. Of course the note appeared when I was living it up at a fair in the next state over, so now I'm going to be way late to the party. Better hurry then, eh?
*pic leads to Mr. C's invite.
Oops, just re-reading his page, and I realize that in order to have the complete party experience I will have to put out. OMG - what have I gotten myself into? Wait, oh okay - he just wants each of us to offer up our own adjunct party plan, plus a few personal tidbits:
What books are on your favorite shelf? What DVD's are on your favorite shelf? What are your TWO favorite cookbooks, ...plus 3 recipes for your special guests. And What will we be drinking.
Oh, I can do that. First thing you'll see is my welcome mat that's been waiting for you on the front porch for a few months now... Now, as far as favorite shelves go... My favorite shelf of books? is always the one filled with the new ones I'm about to read. Nothing quite like the fun of opening an unfamiliar book. So here are the next ones on my stack: (*click* to enlarge any pic) Favorite shelf of dvds? Again, its always the ones I haven't seen yet that are the most attractive to me, so here's the stack next to the DVD player. (warning: some chosen by my housemate - guess which ones.) Two favorite cookbooks: I'll serve up a main course of: Then salad (top) and dessert. Now on to the drinks... *there's also leftover beer and mixers in the cooler from the weekend, but if you want soda its down in the laundry zone - so bring your flashlight.
Since all your vehicles will be clogging up my road, I think its only fair that I also invite the neighbors. I'll just go put my climbing boots on and knock on a few doors.
*knew Mr.C would appreciate this pic
Finally, (silly me I almost forgot!)
...in lieu of party games, every guest must learn the required party dance:
*Lucky for most, its only 15 seconds long...
*no idea who they are, but they are enthusiastic, yes?
Having fun? Because if y'all want to stay longer I'll run and borrow some Caribbean-style tiki torches from the Lion-ess,... or maybe that jazzy "tudor revival" globe chandelier from Mr.C?
'Rob Thomas (of 'Veronica Mars') came up with this idea for “Party Down” a while back. He shot the pilot at his house, did it for fun, and a few years go by... and Starz picks it up.'
' 'L.A. catering company “Party Down”, employs struggling artist/misfits who mingle with guests at everything from sweet16 parties to the most lavish Hollywood soirees.'
This sitcom premiered March 20th but I didn't see it then, since I don't get the Starz channel. (if you do its Fri 9/10:30pm) Luckily, we can also watch it online. Its fun; I'm adding it to my paltry lineup of shows.
Random musings plus hits & bits. Also 'guilty' tv that I never talk about with my pals IRL: 'Top_Chef' and 'D_List', with a dash of 'Flipping Out', 'Middle' & 'GLEE'.
That's all.
Thanks for playing.
