Dinner Party Meme:)

I saw this meme on Sindi's blog and I decided to give my imagination a work out to to do this.

The rules as set out by Graham (the originator of this meme) are as follows:-

The idea is to work your way through the eight phases of the dinner party, answering all of the questions on the way - being as honest and creative as you wish. Once your homework has been completed, please nominate any blogger who's "virtual" dinner party you would love to hear about.


1) The Dinner Party Theme: You have decided to hold a dinner party. When writing the invites you clearly state that fancy dress must be worn. Assuming that cost is no issue, who or what would you dress up as, and why?

My dinner party theme would be based around the R.M.S. Titanic, so my dress would be a replica dress from 1912 as worn by the rich on the ship. It would be made of pink silk satin with much black, silver and gold metallic lame lace. I have always been fascinated by the history of the R.M.S. Titanic, especially after I found out my great grandfather got drunk one night and sold their tickets for the ship.






2) The Invitations: This dinner party is for 6 people (including yourself), you are allowed to invite any 5 other people (either past, present, real or fictional), who would you invite and why?

1. Robin Williams---> I've always wanted to meet him.


2. Johnny Depp---> I've liked him since his TV show "21 Jump Street"


3.Julian Mcmahon----> I just think he is sexy.


4. My hubby Randy----> Because I love him with all my heart & soul and he makes me laugh.


5.Casper the Friendly Ghost----> He's so cute and my nickname in high school






3) The Starter: You are preparing the menu, which dish(es) would you choose as the starter, and why?


Well I would want to do dinner similar to the R.M.S. Titanic, so I would start with an Hors D' Oeuvre like Oysters Mignonette and a soup like Cream of Barley.


4) The Main Course: Okay, now for the main course? and what drink would you serve with it?



The main course would consist of Filet Mignon with Creamy Merlot Sauce; an Asparagus & Spinach Salad with Raspberry Vinaigrette, and a Chicken Liver, Apple & Mushroom pate'. I would serve coffee and a soft red wine for the drink.



5) The Sweet: Finally, the sweet. Which would you choose, and why?


For the sweet I would serve Sorbet A l'Orange, Peach Mousse and Eclairs. I would want a choice to serve to my guests as authentic as the R.M.S. Titanic meals and desserts.



6) The Entertainment: The dinner party has gone swimmingly, everybody has had fun, conversation and drinks have been flowing all evening. At the end of the meal you announce that everybody should perform their 'party piece' (no matter how strange or pointless). What party piece would you perform?


I would have my guests retreat to another room for coffee and cordials and play Charades.



7) The End Of The Evening: The party is over, everybody has gone home, the house suddenly feels empty and quiet. Your eyes fix on the hi-fi in the corner of the room. You search though your CD collection to put on some music as you want to listen to one more track before you retire to bed. Which track would you play?


I would play "Forever" by Kiss because that is mine & my hubby Randy's wedding Song.


8) The Dinner Party Nightmares: Okay, so the "virtual" dinner party is over. Now for the real thing. Have you ever been to or hosted a dinner party during which something has gone wrong (either with the food, a guest or something else)?


We never really have any issues at our parties. The only thing I can think of is my dad's 4th ex-wife, she always pouted,whined, and complained about something at all the parties.


I have decided not to tag anyone for this meme. I did it just to have some fun and use my imagination. I feel others should be let with that option also. I had a blast with this meme and I hope you do too.:)

Thanks Sindi!!! :)

I would like to Thank Sindi of Life is a Rollercoaster, for sharing her awards with me.










I would like to share my award with Choc Mint Girl.

5 Dreams Meme

I was tagged by Choc Mint Girl I've never done a meme before so here is my best shot.
The rules are as follows:-'Write five things you want to be when you grow up. Big dreams that seem like folly, but in your heart of hearts are very real and dear to you. Things that maybe you have forgotten about in the ebb and flow and toil of the everyday, but that never really leave your soul. What you would do if anything was possible?Spend some time day dreaming…and then post them on your blog, passing the idea along to 5 others...because sometimes we need to pause and remember our dreams. Maybe just saying them out loud will help you discover little ways you can make them happen. You can write about that, too.'I don’t know if I’m breaking the rules, but these are the 5 things that I ‘wanted’ when I was young…

1. I use to love the movie Space Camp (actually I still like it) but I use to want to be an astronaut. I told my mom about this dream not to long after the shuttle Challenger exploded. It scared her so bad, Then I remembered I'm scared of heights lol. The farthest I got with that dream was I started a club at my Junior High School for Young Astronauts.

2. I also use to want to write childrens books or mystery books. My favorite author growing up was R.L. Stine The Fear Street Series.

3. I use to dream of being a choreographer. I loved to dance, I'm just good enough at it...

4. I also wanted to be an artist, I love to draw cartoon like stuff. but I can never get to paper waht I'm thinking. I do better looking at other stuff & trying to copy it.

5. My biggest dream was to be a mother. I'm actually living that one. I have the million dollar family. A husband I love dearly , one son, and one daughter who I love more than anything else.

I would love to tag : Stacy , don't really have anyone to tag yet I'm new to this and hoping to get better.

New Pledge Of Allegiance

WRITTEN BY A 15 yr. Old SCHOOL KID IN ARIZONA :

New Pledge of Allegiance (TOTALLY AWESOME) !

Since the Pledge of Allegiance
And
The Lord's Prayer
Are not allowed in most Public schools anymore
Because the word 'God' is mentioned....
A kid in Arizona wrote the attached

NEW School prayer :

Now I sit me down in school
Where praying is against the rule
For this great nation under God Finds mention of Him very odd.
If Scripture now the class recites,
It violates the Bill of Rights.
And anytime my head I bow
Becomes a Federal matter now.

Our hair can be purple, orange or green,
That's no offense; it's a freedom scene.
The law is specific, the law is precise.
Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.

For praying in a public hall
Might offend someone with no faith at all.
In silence alone we must meditate,
God's name is prohibited by the state.

We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,
And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks..
They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.
To quote the Good Book makes me liable.
We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,
And the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King.
It's 'inappropriate' to teach right from wrong,
We're taught that such 'judgments' do not belong.
We can get our condoms and birth controls,
Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles.
But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,
No word of God must reach this crowd.

It's scary here I must confess,
When chaos reigns the school's a mess.
So, Lord, this silent plea I make:
Should I be shot; My soul please take!
Amen


I seen this online and I just totally agree with what it has to say. These things need to change.

Date night

Well Friday night my hubby took me out to celebrate my birthday. I took the kids to the sitter's for the night, then i came back home to pick him up. (he took a nap since he had gotten up at 4 in the morning for work. ) After he got dressed we took off to go eat supper. He took me to the Real Hacienda. The food was okay, but I don't think I would go there again anytime soon. After we ate we went to the mall to walk around for a bit. He ended up getting a new pair of tennis shoes (he needed them real bad). And he got me a manicure kit. We walked around the mall for a while then he took me out to a club. He bought me roses. We just sat and talked and listened to the music, But I had a blast.
