Nate Berkus, I love you more today than yesterday! I know I have already professed my love for Mr. Berkus but I just have to reiterate how great his show is! It is definitely the perfect "talk" show for me. Case in point...last week, Nate had a guest on the show that showed how to take every day take out food and turn it into a million dollar party appetizer. That's what I'm all about! You don't have to spend all day in the kitchen cooking up a meal from scratch just to have a dinner party! Pick up the phone and call in an order then use these tips from my friend Nate to turn it into a party.
Yep, you heard it right. Humble little popcorn is a party ready pantry worthy item! This is something that is almost always in my pantry and it is the perfect base for some wonderful flavors. Next time you are in a pinch and can't seem to think of anything else to make for your party, grab a bag of popcorn and get to mixin! Here are just a few of the MANY different mixes you can try. Don't be afraid to add your own flavors to make something all your own!
This is the perfect example of why I love paper so much! Just look at this fabulous party I spotted over at Hostess with the Mostess (my fave!). Almost ALL of the decorations are made from paper! It's proof that you don't have to spend a ton of money on decorations to make a great party. All you need is a package of construction paper, some scissors, and a little glue and you have yourself the makings of a pretty party. And..it kinda takes you back to your grade school days! Feelin younger already!:)

We are taking this party up a notch on the ol' sophistication ladder with these cocktails. So pick a drink, or two....or three, and get your bar stocked!
