Weekend Highlights

sat4694612475_54dedd8ca9

Saturday I finally took the plunge and got my new short, hip haircut! I could not be happier – I feel so light and fresh and modern. I went to the Aveda Institute in Ft. Lauderdale and got my hair cut by my amazing friend, Alana. She’s been busting her butt to learn and perfect the art of hair and I am so pleased with what she did. I was a little nervous about the chunky highlights, but she was so confident that they would look great that those worries quickly dissipated. I feel like a new me and can’t wait to start the summer as a blonde! I’ll let you know if what they say is true and I do have more fun, although with the summer I have lined up already, I doubt I would have anything but!

Sunday night we had our first official party at the house for the season 3 premiere of True Blood! I don’t need to reiterate what a big fan I am of this show, so just suffice it to say that I was excited (& a little nervous about having people over for the first time in our new house). It was such a success! We made it a potluck since we are fridge-less until the 22nd and wow, did people make some yummy treats! Plus, we got some fun party favors and props that really made the night a lot of fun.
My personal favorite was my jug of Fang Banger – an alcoholic concoction of True Blood beverage, Sprite and Vodka. Thankfully, I woke up this morning hangover free, but I did have my fair share of these throughout the night (& I was not the only one).
I also thought the season opener was great and really held our attention (was it all the nice butt shots?) – I am both bummed and pleased that they seem to not be following the books at all, but we have yet to see what they have in store for us the rest of the season. I totally need to get used to those typical True Blood weekly cliffhangers again – how killer was last night’s??
For all the photos from last night, click here.

Have a great week everyone!

Lovable Friday

It’s finally here! The wait is over, Truebies – HBO’s hit show (& seemingly everyone’s obsession), True Blood, will begin its highly anticipated 3rd season on Sunday night at 9pm. HBO has teased us for months now with these mini posters (pictured above is the last of the series), character minisodes and plenty of shorts to wet our appetite. I’ve read up until book 5 in the Sookie Stackhouse series, which is what the series is based off of, and if they follow book 3’s storyline (but will probably deviate from), we are going to have a lot to look forward to! What am I most excited for? The introduction of Alcide, the hottie werewolf! Rawr.

I’ll be holding a little viewing party at my place complete with a themed potluck, fangbanger cocktails and fangs galore! VILFS welcome 😉

I’d like to start off Lovable Friday today with the winner of The Bird & The Bee contest I held last week! The lucky winner of a copy of their new album, Interpreting the Masters, Volume 1 is Karen Lisa! Congratulations! Remember to send me your mailing address as soon as you can so the CD can be sent your way!

I couldn’t love this more. For those not in the know, VILF stands for Vampire I‘d Like to F___ – I’ll let you fill in the nasty little letters yourselves! As if June 13th didn’t feel long enough, yet another teaser was released earlier this week featuring everyone’s favorite bar-owning shape shifter, Sam Merlotte. I hate how they are purposely featuring scenes that cannot be placed if you read the novels. Does anyone have any theories? Also, I totally need this as a shirt for this year’s Comic Con!

Lovable Friday!

1. True Blood: In Production Teaser

Now that I have had some extra time on my hands to read, I’ve really been enjoying the Sookie Stackhouse series, which inspired HBO’s True Blood. I am currently on Book 4, and although it is shaping up to be my favorite so far, I really enjoyed Book 3 so I can’t wait to see the way they decide to translate it on the show. HBO knows that there are many die-hard “Truebies” out there, so they made this sweet little teaser to (attempt to) tide us over until June. Also, for those fellow fans, the biggest recent news was that the role of Alcide (sweet & sexy werewolf that becomes involved with Sookie in more ways than one) was given to Joe Manganiello, who has appeared on How I Met Your Mother and One Tree Hill in the past. At first, I wasn’t all that happy with the casting, but he has grown on me after doing several google image searches 😉

Delayed Weekend Highlights!

sat3914660958_5884e771cc_o

The first half of the weekend was all about family. My husband’s family was in from out of town for his grandparents’ 50th wedding anniversary. It was lovely to reminisce about the length of their beautiful relationship through both stories and photos. I hope that Augi and I will be able to share such a milestone with our children and grandchildren one day. We spent the majority of the weekend with everyone, had a family photoshoot, attended a special mass and had a delicious family dinner at Trattoria Sole. It all made me realize how important family is and how lucky we are to have them around. Others are not as fortunate.
