Leaving on a Jet Plane ...

We are beyond sad to bid two of our favorite friends farewell-for-now. Alongside two other couples, we hosted a going-away-so-sad-to-see-you-go-party.To fight the blues, we needed one good party. Our signature cocktail was the "Golden Gate" as this pair is San Fran bound. It was PINK, rimmed with icing and sprinkles, and oh-so-delish. It wouldn't be a proper Southern send off without Southern food: pulled pork, fried chicken, mashed potatoes, okra, mac'n'cheese, cornbread, and our favorite sweets from a local bakery. After comforting our blues with comfort food, we headed to a local dive and sang the blues. We serenaded the couple with "Leaving on a Jet Plane." All the girls came up with a game plan: the only real way to fight the blues is plan a westward visit ... hello San Fran!!! Xoxo-BLC

PS: It's not a party without a party dress!!! I was running late for this shindig and was thankful to literally jump in an outfit minutes before guests arrived. I sported one of my all-time-favorite frocks by Sheridan French and I added a pop of color with a Noble House Designs necklace.Viola ... ready to play!!!
