Just a quick note to answer the emails I have been receiving regarding the disappearance of the last blog post.  No need to worry, I am still in L.A. and the party is still on.  Due to confidentiality reasons, I decided to remove the previous post.  If you have been keeping up with the blog, you know what I am talking about.  If you have not or are a new reader, thanks for your patience.

Suffice it to say I am beyond thrilled to be working on an event for a celebrity client and hope you understand that she deserves the same privilege of confidentiality that any other client does. 

More to come on my adventures soon……

I have seen it featured on several sites recently, so I can’t give credit to any one source as to where I saw it first.  In fact, when I first read about Wordle, I was kind of ambivalent about the whole thing.  It looked OK, but I really didn’t think much about it.

Then yesterday I actually checked it out.  Beside the fact that it is quite addictive, a world of possibilities started opening up for me (OK, OK, I’m a little slow, I admit!).

I think Wordle is absolutely PERFECT for integrating into your party invites.  Or imagine how cute for your Save the Dates for your wedding!  Seriously, the site lets you do SO MUCH with a bunch of words.  Change colors, sizes, backgrounds, orientations….addicting I tell ya.

Its free to play around and get all creative and the print out your work, so give it a shot. 

Just heard that Angelina Jolie gave birth to her twins in France.

Names:  Vivienne Marcheline and Knox Leon.

Love the girl’s name….Vivienne was a top contender on my own baby name list a few years ago.

But KNOX?  Well, its, ummm, different.

What really got me thinking was, “What’s the deal with the boy’s names in the Jolie-Pitt clan?”

MaddoX, PaXand now KnoX. 

I am quite sure this is less by coincidence and more by design.  Just not sure why. 

Thoughts???

Remember “back in the day” when we replaced the clever koozie with those fancy little drink charms to remember whose glass was whose at the BBQ?  DRINK CHARMS!!  How quaint.  How very “LY” (last year)!!!

But times, they are a-changing, folks.  Behold the GENIUS new way to keep mono at bay:  CLINQS

Did I mention GENIUS???

These reusable vinyl decals stick to everything - wine glasses, beer cans, plastic cups, water bottles, hot and cold, wet and dry.  Available in a bevy of designs and colors to reflect your own personal style. 

I am not even going to get into the fact that my children have basically the same things in the form of Colorforms sitting in their playroom.  Nor will I mention the fact that I have actually muttered the phrase “These freakin’ things stick to everything!” upon peeling a stray Barbie shaped one off the bottom of my foot for the ump-teenth time. 

Again, I resort to that age-old question “Why didn’t I think of that???”.  {{{sigh}}}

Never mind.  At least SOMEONE did!!

So now you can apply and reapply the sticker of your choice to the beverages of your choice with no risk of swapping spit with that slimy dude who keeps blowing his nose. 

Price is just $5.50/sheet, once again making it oh-so-easy to be penny wise and fabulous at the same time!
