Cocktails, shopping, cats and Oscars added up to fabulous Nashville fun this weekend.
Shop ’til you drop.
After a low-key Friday night (trying to avoid a repeat of Sushi’s Revenge), Mama and I headed to the Mall at Green Hills (small slice of Nashville heaven) where we decided it would beyond cute to get matching t-shirts at Juicy Couture on Saturday.
We don’t give a duck. Nope. We don’t.
All of that shopping lead us to Cheesecake Factory where we quenched our thirst with strawberry martinis.
Feels so good when it hits the lips.
Upon review of my purchases at home (how could I go shopping without getting a pair of shoes?), New Cat (yep, he’s still here) claimed one of the boxes for his very own bed (as I’m sure you all know Ted has every other nook and cranny of my mini manse under his paws).
Bed in a box.
I hunkered down to be a tried and true crazy cat lady on the leopard couch.
Three’s definitely a crowd.
Pussy love, slowly turning into a cat fight.
While I enjoyed a sunny Nashville morning, my twin cutie pies in Iowa were busy watching their dad shovel snow in zero degree weather.
Beautiful March day.
Cold doesn’t have any impact on their adorableness, of course.
Ready for the Academy Awards red carpet!
Little did I know, snow was in the forecast for Sunday night and hundreds of shoppers greeted my appearance at the grocery store. Like, lines 22 people deep. At 11am. On Sunday morning.
Forget the bread and milk. I need booze!
Which is why I stopped for a bloody mary on the way home.
With a warm belly full of vodka, it was time to head to my mini manse and get prepped for the Academy Awards.
Me and my fancy snacks.
Because I have the hand strength of a 92-year-old, it took a good 45 minutes trying to pop the cork off the champagne bottle. Much to Teddy’s delight, I finally got the damn thing open.
Party time!
After averting a champagne crisis, we got down to business devouring the classy chocolate chip cupcake (and I must say for being gluten-free, dairy free, and soy free was pretty freaking delish).
Cat cake sharing.
While admiring all of the glitzy gowns and glamour, my friend Tony supplied me with a pic of what I need the floor of my closet to read…
Duh!
You know all of those folks freaking out at the grocery store? Well, they were right as this morning the city has shut down due to snow and ice.
Ice in the city.
While they’re enjoying their bread and milk, I’m enjoying my Skinny Pirates.
Now who do you think is having the better snow day?
