Hungry for the Hunger Games

I just purchased my ticket to see The Hunger Games this evening and I couldn't be more excited. I have The Hunger Games fever and I don't care who knows it! I know people are sick of the hype but I have totally fallen for it.


These Posters of the movie are anything but hyped, I love the simplicity of them. Who is going to see the movie?

February Book Club


 Our second Book Club was a success! We read Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? by Mindy Kaling, writer, producer, and actor from "The Office". It is a hilarious trip through Kaling's life, as well as her opinions about friends, guys, fashion, relationship, and Hollywood.  There were so many funny parts that I couldn't wait to chat about with my friends, and I found out they all came with a slew of Mindy's thoughts they wanted to discuss as well.

We had some great apps and wine again, and we all agreed we should jump on the bandwagon, and our next book will be Hunger Games, so we can finish just in time for the movie. I am excited to see what all the hype is about.

Here is the trailer for the movie if you haven't seen it yet.

Book Club- First Attempt

So we started a book club.... how "adult" of us right? (You would think at 25, we would do more "adult" things). Well we started with a classic, The Great Gatsby, and it was somewhat of a success. Successful in the fact that we ate, drank and talked girl talk all night. Not so successful in the fact that we didn't even utter the word "Gatsby" once....whoooops! I guess we spent too much time talking and writing papers about it in High School.

We had some great apps, I made Pioneer Woman's Olive Cheese bread, and it was delicious, and so easy! Recipe HERE.

We decided our next book would be something fun and easy to read in a month. We went with....


Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me, by Mindy Kaling, who plays Kelly on "The Office", and also co-produces and writes for the show. So it has to be funny, right? Well I just read the first few pages and it's hilarious!

We will try to share our book club reads each month, in case you are in search of a good book. Stay tuned to hear about Mindy Kaling's book.
