oscar-party-cover_0 Exciting news! I’m now a contributor to Disney’s Spoonful, a fabulous resource for crafts, recipes and activities for parents and kids.  For my first post, I whipped up a little Oscar Party with some “perfectly partied” panache. Oftentimes, Oscar Parties are geared toward being “adults-only” fêtes. But since the Oscars are on a Sunday and everyone I know has kids under the age of 9, the days of lounging around the house in sweats, glued to the television for eight hours (with copious cocktails present), are a distant memory. That said, this is still very much a part of my DNA and a tradition that I can’t entirely shake. So this year, I’m turning my Oscar party into a fabulous and family-friendly event with both the cocktails and activities for the kids. From the “And the Popcorn Goes To…” party favors to the Who Are You Wearing Photo Booth, I’m so excited to share some of my ideas with you.

Below are just a few pics from the soiree taken by my good friend and talented photographer Doogie Benesch .
