I Got My Drink and My Two Step

So, you know how I'm having that dinner party.  Well, I needed some drinkware right?  I found the coolest cups at JC Penney.  They actually have a lot of legit things!!

This set of 4 old fashioned glasses was originally $58 but is on clearance for $20.49.

 

This set of 4 highball glasses  was originally $58 but is on clearance for $20.49.

And these champagne flutes were the same price when I bought them but they are sold out now. 

I got 2 sets of each.  $20.49 x 6=  $122.94
They were running a 15% discount at the time so that brought it down to $104.49
AND I got free shipping because I spent more than $100!

So 24 glasses for $104. 40 equals to $4.35 a glass, instead of the original $14.50 a glass. #WINNING!

They have a sale right now with the code: PUMPKIN  that is 15% off your total order- no minimum purchase, 20% off orders of $100 or more, or 25% off $150 or more. So, you could get an even better deal that I did!!  Get them before they are gone!

Anyways, we're moving right along on this dinner party idea...

- glassware: check

- flatware: check

Still the one I do this 4 I'm trying to make a 3 From that 2 He still the 1...Countdown

gosh I freaking LOVE Beyonce. #allhailqueenbey. sorry, I had to!  I was lucky enough to be gifted tickets to her show last year.  BEST BIRTHDAY PRESENT EVER!!!

Anyways, this isn't about Beyonce, it's just a fun little blogging countdown I saw on Two Thirds Hazel's blog.  These things always remind me of all those chain things on MySpace....that sure was long time ago!

Five things I'll be doing over the coming weekend:

1. My brother is coming to town!  And maybe my Mom too! I’m super pumped and I’m planning on getting a lot of things done around the house AND eating lots of delicious food!

2. Building Shelves in my garage to try to somehow organize the serious disaster situation that is currently in there, seriously someone should call FEMA about that matter.  Possibly following one of Ana White’s plans, check it out here.

3. Bill Cosby. I. CAN. NOT. WAIT!  I ordered these tickets the day they went on sale many, many months ago and I’m so glad I didn’t hesitate because these sold like hot cakes and there are no more available!  I have watched his stand-up Bill Cosby Himself too many times, and still laugh like the first time I’ve seen it.  The Dentist skit and Drinking skit are two of my favorites. 

"I'm going OUT... because I DESERVE to go out! And I'm going to get DRUNK... because I DESERVE to get drunk! And get out of my way!"…5 minutes later “Now you've got to go. So you come into the bathroom, close the door; now, don't forget: you owe this to yourself. You've worked hard all week. It's come to this.”- Bill Cosby

4. The N.C. State Fair is here! Woohoo!  Because what we all REALLY need to eat is a Twix bar, inside of a Twinkie, wrapped in bacon, deep fried, and sprinkled with powder sugar.  

5. Watch this week’s episode of How to Get Away with Murder.  This show is so freaking confusing with their whole back 2 weeks, forward 7 weeks, and one week before, current. Even so, I’m hooked!  

Four of my current favorite pins from Pinterest:

1.Dinner Party! 2. Fall Outfit 3. Balloon Spider 4. Porch Idea!

Three items that I really need or would really love to purchase:

1. These plates from C.Wonder have been on my ‘Buy Next Paycheck’ list for like six weeks.  I keep buying other random things and pushing these plates back.  Gosh they are so beautiful, and actually reasonably priced.

2. Duck Boots.  I bought some on a good sale that are like normal shoes, they are cute but aren’t super helpful when walking through puddles!

3. Keurig!  My mom's birthday is next month and she really wants one.  Which model is your favorite?  What is your favorite brand and flavor K-cup?

Two things that are bothering me:

1.      People keep calling ebola, ‘eboli.’  WHAT! This is not freaking e.coli.This does not come from eating too rare of meat.  Ugh.  It is driving me insane.  I KEEP hearing this over and over, it’s not like the word ‘ebola’ is not all over the news! Let’s say it together folks ‘eee-bowl-ah.” Whew.

2.      Double Standards. No need to elaborate on this one. 

 

One quote that speaks straight to my soul right now:
