OscarPreperations

As I was saying yesterday, there is not a better excuse than the Oscars to have an intimate group of friends over. You can swoon over the outfits and choose your best dressed (my mom and I used to love doing that) discuss the show, (only during breaks, no talking during the show!) pick your winners beforehand - click here to print out the whole nominees for your guests - and last but not least, have some yummy treats.

If this were to happen at my dad's, we'd be having some beer, delicious crackers, and some parmesan cheese. If this gathering were to happen at my mom's, we'd be having h'ordeuvres that I'm not able to pronounce. Therefore I decided to prepare something in the middle, enjoy.

Dun size bahsettigim gibi, aklima eve arkadas cagirmak icin Oscar toreninden daha iyi bir neden gelmiyor. Hem en iyi giyinenler listenizi tartisabilirsiniz, (annemle benim en sevdigimiz seydir) hem sovu tartisabilirsiniz, (sadece reklam aralarinda, sov sirasinda konusmak yasak!) hem kimin kazanacagini tahmin edebilirsiniz - buraya tiklayarak tum adaylarin listesine ulasabilir ve tum arkadaslariniza bu listeyi dagitabilirsiniz - hem de sahane yemekler yapabilirsiniz!

Bu davet babamin olsaydi bira icip guzel salam ve parmesan yiyor olurduk. Bu davet annemde olsaydi ismini bilemeyecegim muhtesem h'ordeuvre'ler yiyor olurduk. O yuzden ben ikisinin arasi bir sey hazirlamaya karar verdim. Iyi egelenceler!

Starting off with crackers, salami, olives, and cheese.

Last but not least, my favorite desserts of all time; white chocolate covered strawberries, or raspberries with white & dark chocolate Hersheys.
