Dorothy's Ruby Red Slippers

Okay, this has nothing to do with being a fabulous hostess, but it does have something to do with a theme very close to the real Babs' heart: SHOPPING.  These ruby red slippers a la Dorothy are currently on Etsy.com.  You can find them in Sweet Love Vintage's shop.  Aren't they fun?  Sure, they'd be handy for a good ole Dorothy Halloween costume, but we would kind of like to wear them out and about.  Like with jeans whilst doing grocery shopping.  :)  Wouldn't that get folks in Grass Valley or Visalia talking?

Bread Pudding Apple Pie = Happy Men

This is a picture of the Bread Pudding Apple Pie made using this recipe from Allrecipes.com.
It was a hit. No, an epic hit.  It was made for a bunch of guys and this is the picture taken hastily before it was completely devoured a la mode.  If you would like to wow 'em with a new recipe (and an easy one, too!), this one comes highly recommended!
