I am sort of obsessed with Will and Jada Smith and their family. Willow debuted her second single at the ripe old age of 10. (yeah, 10…) I know she fits into the “teeny bopper” category, but all I am saying is that she will be around. She is much better than kesha (of course I think that I could be better than her as well) but nonetheless.
I love the award season and I love the Oscars, since the are airing tonight I decided to give a couple of my picks. I am not going to go through every category…just the main ones.
So, I am obsessed with this movie. It is not only my pick for Best Picture but also for Colin Firth in the Best Actor category. It is hilarious, witty, and historical. To be honest I think Geoffrey Rush should win Best Supporting Actor as well…but I hear Christian Bale did an awesome job in The Fighter. (I have not seen it yet)
Best Actress -
For me, this is a no-brainer…I thought Natalie Portman was absolutely phenomenal. The story was twisted and crazy, but the role she took on to play this part and the training she put in to pull that off. I thought the movie altogether was a great master piece and the story came altogether in the end and she better win.
I am also really excited about James Franco and Anne Hathaway hosting, it should be a very fun show…ohhhhh don’t forget the PS22 chorus, they will be performing!! check out their blog and YouTube channel.
Who do you want to win? What are you looking forward to?
Best Meal – Chik fil a chicken nuggets and fries for lunch on Tuesday. Those waffle fries always brighten my day.
Best Tweet - RT @eroberts7: Sometimes, I wish that I was Adele so that when I open my mouth her voice comes out.
Best Song - I am sure Ya’ll think I am ridiculous but Adele’s new album came out this week and to say I am obsessed is an understatement. “Someone Like You” is my song of the week…
Best TV time – Brothers and sisters!
oh and for this week I will add…
Best Coffee Creamer -
Yes – that is Christmas trees, snow and the words “seasonal celebrations”…Don’t worry I checked the expiration date.
I really love international delight coffee creamers and I obviously really like the flavor combination of white chocolate and raspberry so you can imagine my reaction when I found this on the shelf at Publix this week.
It was on sale and probably because they found it in the corner somewhere…but oh well, it tastes sooooo good.
I apologize for being so absent from the blog world this week…I had a test in my constitutional history class and my civil war class. But now the tests are over and whew, I am relieved. Tomorrow Matthew and I are heading home for the weekend and I am very excited because we have not been home since Christmas break.
So on to bigger and better things… I have been in a strawberry frenzy! I love fresh produce but unfortunately that always seems to be the pricey section in the grocery store. Well this week Publix had strawberries on sale and I decided to “splurge” and even bought some bananas (which are always cheap).
I inhaled ate them all week long. Just plain with a little sugar coating, in a smoothie, on my cheerios…basically any way I could find.
(check out the “All For The Union” yep, civil war letters)
Smoothie time…threw in some bananas, strawberries, and peach fat free yogurt.
“Shake Me Down” – Cage the Elephant
and well, because my goal is to get every one on the Adele bandwagon… 14 minutes of goodness.
Dear The New York Times,
ARE YOU KIDDING ME??
The newspaper LEAD film critics recently published an article that discussed black actors who have previously won Oscars. Whoopi was not included anywhere within the article…I was so glad that she confronted the issue on The View.
She won an Oscar for her role in Ghost, a fabulous role starring alongside Demi Moore and the magnificent Patrick Swayze. Her win was historic and the movie was so good, how a lead film critic from one of the biggest newspapers in the country, and maybe even the world, just baffles me.
In case they missed this… here is Whoopi on her Oscar win
It is not like she was a one hit wonder…she is one of TWELVE people that claim the E.G.O.T…she holds in her possession one of each of the major awards in the different industries.
Don’t worry Whoopster, you are loved and respected for all of your work and I am so glad you are on the view!!
For some reason this week I became quite obsessed with the idea of planning my nephew’s 1st birthday party. Yes, it is six months away…but one must always be prepared right?
I found a blog site titled Hostess with the Mostess and it had the cutest party ideas/themes along with pictures and links to get all of the fun stuff. In browsing and speaking with my sister we decided that we would throw Bode a sock monkey themed 1st birthday. To say I am excited about this would be an understatement. In the midst of my studying this week I practically planned the entire party.
Gift bag ideas, table décor, the food menu…his outfit. Yep, got it planned. My sister is actually thankful (I think?) and I am beginning to wonder if maybe I should have been an event planner. This is so much fun. The party will be in August…but don’t worry I will keep updates on it planning progress. Look at these pictures, aren’t they adorable.
There is so much fun stuff all over Esty, this is actually quite dangerous. I feel that I am planning this as if it is my party. Bode man will not even remember it…oh well. I am going to go all out anyway!
What do you think? Do you know anywhere to get fun sock monkey stuff or do you have any ideas?
