Hello, and welcome to another Saturday Dinner Party, where I invite some of my favorite celebrities {from movies, TV, music, and other entertainment genres} over to my house in the East Tennessee countryside for an imaginary dinner party. This month, I’ve invited three of my favorite Country Music couples. I don’t listen to country music as much now as I did several years ago {I’m an NPR junkie}, but these country music artists are still some of my favorites to this day. The three couples I’ve invited to my {imaginary} dinner party are Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, Garth Brooks […]
My Walking Tour Through Downtown Knoxville
Last Saturday, I met up with several other bloggers and foodies from the Knoxville and surrounding area to experience what the downtown Knoxville area has to offer. It was a crazy, event-filled weekend, what with the Pride-fest and farmer’s market and just regular weekend traffic. But by golly, it was great food and even better company! The tour was organized by blogger Gwendolyn Mulholland of Finding Sanity in Our Crazy Life. She booked the tour through East TN Tours. There was 12 of us total, including our tour guide, Lauren Quinn, who also owns East TN Tours. Lauren was well-prepared […]

Saturday Night Dinner Party: Halloween
I’m not a fan of scary movies. I barely made it through Scream, but since Halloween is on Monday, I thought it would be interesting to have some well-known “scary movie” actors and actresses over for a Saturday night Halloween dinner party. So who are my guests? First up is legendary scream queen Jamie Lee Curtis (Halloween). And then there is Neve Campbell, known for her role as Sidney Prescott in Scream. Also on the invite list is Robert Englund, a.k.a. Freddy Krueger (Nightmare on Elm Street) and Matthew Goode (Stoker). To add a little humor to the night would be Simon Pegg […]
How to Make Your July 4th Weekend Unforgettable
Bring out the fireworks and sparklers! Bring out the red, white, and blue decorations! Bring out the bean bag toss games and the water balloons! Get all of your family and friends together and get ready to celebrate the Fourth of July in style. First of all, if you’re throwing a July 4th picnic, you’ll want to start NOW buying decorations. I was just at Hobby Lobby last weekend and their was one aisle full of July 4th decorations. Red, white and blue were plentiful! If you’re like me (meaning out in the country), and you have a pallet, then […]
