School time wine glass swap!

Let's have some fun! A year ago I had a wine glass exchange. And I think everyone had so much fun that they are still talking about it....hahahahahahaha! No, really it was fun.

Let me explain, Hubby's grandmother gives everyone a wine glass at Christmas. Some years it is a funky art deco wine glass, other years it is a beautiful Waterford martini glass. It is such fun to add to your collection during the year as well. At parties instead of having to tag your wineglasses, each person has an entirely different glass. It looks darling when all the glasses are set out and such fun to see which glass your guest selects.

Last year I drew Casey and she gave me the one in the above picture that says, "Coco." They were trying to sell their house at the time and I sent her a handpainted glass with a house on it with "The Starnes" on it. I also sent her one for Valentine's Day that said, "Friends Forever." Just to be a dork. (She sent me a "Best Friends" necklace broken in two, she outdorked me!)

So you get the idea. If you want to participate in this years wine glass exchange just leave a comment. I will match everyone up on Monday the 17th. I will link to everyone so you can easily get in touch with your wine glass buddy.

Got it? Understand? Have fun and BOTTOMS UP, HOT MAMAS!!!

Love it!

Re: your comment on the shrimp fritters. The recipe actually called for it to be on romaine but I skipped that so too funny you do it on arugula. SOunds good. I am surprised you don't have your email addy connected to your comment. I would respond to you that way. That's probably why you don't then :)

Go to your Dashboard, then Settings, then Comments. At the very bottom you can put your email address in to get notified. That should also link your address to show in your comment but I am having a brain freeze. Once you do it send me a test comment on my last post. Then I will see if your email is attached.

OK, it didn't work & I am not surprised. Here are the right directions:

Go to Blogger User Profile, and then click "Edit User Profile".

Third line down: Show Email Address: Make sure there is a check in the box.

Further down, under Identity: Email Address: Type in your email address.

There you have it. Sorry.
