Happy Halloween!!

Boy do I love this holiday, especially when I was a kid. Getting all decked out in the coolest costume imaginable and going trick or treating. But now as I am an adult, trick or treating is out, but I was happy to learn that my co-op building does trick or treating for the kiddies in our building, so it will be fun to see what cute little costumes they show up in. Even my office is getting into the holiday spirit this year, with a fun halloween party tomorrow. And I will be dressing up, you know how I love this kind of stuff. Some hints to my costume, one of my favorite tv characters from the 80s. No guessing if I already told you what it is!

And continuing with the Halloween spirit, I decided to make some pumpkin chocolate chip cookies to bring to work tomorrow. And I swear what went down in my kitchen, I could have sworned I was being filmed for Punked or something. So I am making my cookies, and then I go to get an egg from the fridge when I see I only have two left in that container, I say to myself, okay let me grab one and put the other in the egg holder on the door. And bam, I drop the container on the floor and smash go the eggs. So as soon as I clean that up, I go to get a bowl out of the cabinets to mix the flour and bam, a glass comes flying at the cabinet and smashes on the kitchen floor. This all happened in the span of 60 seconds. Are you freaking kidding me. It was like I was on Candid Camera or something. But alas, the cookies came out delish!

Everyone have a Happy Halloween tomorrow!!!

I Survived Wedding Craziness!

Okay, it's been almost 2 weeks, but it has been crazy.... almost two weeks ago, I rented a car and drove to Massachusetts for the wedding of my college roomie Tracy and it took me almost 7 1/2 hours. I had to drive to Boston to get my college roomie Cara from the airport and then back to Harvard, MA. AHHHH! Never drive anywhere on the Friday of Columbus Day Weekend. It was pure hell. But the wedding was fabulous, even though it was 85 degrees out!

Then just this past weekend was even crazier. My mom came in last Wednesday, Thursday we saw Wicked, my third time. I just love it so much. And that night my roomie Cara came in again from Florida. So we shopped all day on Friday and then hit Serendipity for delish sundaes. And then the big day finally came on Saturday for my best pal Leslie's big day as I was her maid of honor. Got all spruced up with hair and nails and it was a long day. Got to Tavern on the Green before 5pm for pictures and we didn't even walk down the aisle until 8pm. The food was so good but it was so late when we ate at midnight, I couldn't even finish everything. But we had an amazing time, if not exhausting. And Leslie is already off to St. Lucia today for her fabulous honyemoon, which is the same place last week's bride Tracy went to on her honeymoon. How funny is that!?

But I survied the wedding craziness, and I finally had a day to recover today. Thank god for that. And tomorrow night, I get to see Kelly Clarkson in concert with Erica. Can't wait for that!!

Wednesday TV!

What the heck happened to ABC, all of a sudden it has a fabulous Wednesday lineup!

It all began with the premiere of Pushing Daisies, after all of the hype I was quite curious how I would really feel about this show. It has been so buzzed about and every critic has been putting it at the top of its best new shows of the season lists. And I really did like it. It's so different and quirky, I enjoyed it so much. It really had a Edward Scissorhands/Beetlejuice vibe to it and that is so cool. I can't wait to see more of this one.

Then there was Private Practice, it really is just a quirky version of Grey's Anatomy, but I still enjoy what cases they come up with. And Taye Diggs ain't bad to look at. And then there's Dirty Sexy Money, I love this one. It is just so soapy and addicting. There are so many great storylines and such a fantastic cast.

On to tomorrow night's TV, another busy night of Grey's Anatomy and Ugly Betty. I haven't checked out last week's premiere episode of Big Shots yet, but I hear it's not so great, even with my hottie Michael Vartan in it.

In the meantime, I'm trying to catch up on TiVo as my weddings bonanza finally begins this weekend. I'm off to Massachusetts on Friday for wedding #1 for Tracy and then back on Sunday night to prepare for the following weekend for being maid of honor in Leslie's wedding at NYC's Tavern on the Green! And I'll be having my mom and college roomie Cara come into town to stay with me for that one! It's going to be a crazy two weeks!!
