Today is my birthday

and I'm cookin' up a storm for my birthday dinner party.

I actually woke up feeling older today. I mean c'mon, dinner parties? Cooking my momma's recipes? Velcro rollers? Next stop is prune juice and Talbots.

A lil gothic touch for offbeat wedding couples (that is weird in a cool way).

Monday Night Jamz 6

This song is so catchy and great for gettin' people on the floor.

Midas Hutch- Yes, No Maybe

wtf?

It's snowing in Atlanta. Last night, I wore a little dress and bare legs and felt totally fine- it was like 60 degrees. Then, this morning, I left the brunch restaurant to find my car covered in snow. wtf? It wasn't even slushy snow, but GOOD sticky, powdery snow. It's cool, but I kind of felt like homegirl in he picture above.

The Plug

Further proof that ATLiens are one rad group of people.

The plug put a disposable camera on a bench in the Highlands with instructions to take pictures. he posted the pictures online here.

(As if you needed more proof than me and outkast)

Top 5 iPhone Apps for Weddings

Alright you little iphone addicts. Since a lot of brides bloggers have been getting iPhones recently, I thought I'd share a few apps that I think are super cool/hilarious/genius for brides to be.

1. My Wedding
This app is great for keeping all your wedding plans straight. You can make to-do lists, make plans based on dates, and it also has a cool little wedding-style magic 8-ball feature for when you can't decide on something. Just shake it, and see if you should "bet your ring on it" or "I now pronounce you yes".

2. Party Planner
Enter some basic info about your peeps- how many people, what kind of drinkers, what you will be serving- and it will give you a perfect estimate about how much alcohol/mixers you need for the night and some great drink ideas!

3. Wedding Envi
Keeps photo wedding inspiration organized into groups from the web.

4. Waltz
From the Ballroom Dance Channel, this app gives you the exact steps and videos for different dances. If you don't have time/money for lessons, this app is great for anytime/anywhere practice!

5. StudioApp
Finally, the most gangsta for last. This app has a bunch of instrumentals for recording/flowin'/singing/ slam poetry-ing, whatever. Its really easy, and super fun. How awesome would it be able to hook up your iphone at a wedding and have a "freestyle" toast, or a song made for your lova? No advanced music skills required.




(I have always been an apple girl with my G3 still truckin' after 7 years, but recently, I have no more faith as I have been through 3 ipods and witnessed many a macbook kerplut after 6-12 months. But the iphone has too many way awesome apps, so I might have to get one.)
