Champagne Cocktail

Another excuse to drink the bubbly (and reason to include my beloved bitters)...

Put 1 sugar cube in a Champagne glass.
Lightly sprinkle the sugar cube with Angostura bitters
and pour enough sparkling wine to fill the glass.
Garnish with a lemon twist before serving.

Fur-enzy

 ATTENTION: Holiday parties are approaching fast! The furry finds below can be used to dress up jeans to arrive in style to Thanksgiving dinner, add some glam for New Years, or top your LBD for those office holiday parties (so that no one recognizes it is the same LBD from last year!).

Ladies, a dressy jacket, coat or vest is a necessity that many overlook. There is nothing worse than the woman in the fabulous dress at coat check picking up her...fleece. Nowadays there are great faux fur coats, jackets and boleros that are made well and affordable. Start looking now so you aren't searching in a fur-enzy later.

Real Simple...Real Snazzy

Real Simple November 2010 features gold apples, pears and walnuts along with pumpkins, figs and gords on the cover. What a beautiful way spice up the average Autumn centerpiece! Not only is it inexpensive, but a fun/easy project to dress up your dining table, entry way table, etc.

1 can of gold spray paint + assorted Fall produce + 30 minutes = gorgeous, impressive decor
