I love Hollywood glam. However, in a day and age, when all media is splashed with gory details of celebrity love and loss, I hate playing into being a spectator, with a few exceptions. One of those is Oscar night. It is a well orchestrated day of handsomely clad men, gorgeously gowned & jeweled women and don’t forget Oscar. I am also a movie lover and so Oscar night, is actually Oscar day for someone like me.
First, making sure the DVR has no conflicting recordings, I set up the E-Red carpet to tape all day long. Then I make myself a Bloody Maria, True Grit Style (see recipe below). Once the afternoon arrives, I park it on the couch for a little break and watch the red carpet footage, super fast forward style!
Spring time in Texas evokes thoughts of warm (not hot) weather, barbeque, and generally just hanging outside. This is the time of year that just begs the question “Why not drink Pink”?
What do Billy Gibbons and Charlie Sexton have in common? Guitars yes, but they are also investors in Pura Vida Tequila. In a day and age when celebrity endorsements of spirit products are growing, you have to wonder if it’s just about the money, or if they actually believe in the product they are selling. Yesterday I had the opportunity to spend the day with Billy Gibbons and trust me, he believes in Pura Vida.
