Last night at dinner, I ordered the Bigeye Tuna for an appetizer. It was prepared with ginger, teriyaki, green onion, avocado, topped with black and white sesame seeds and served with fried wontons. I was surprised and excited to see it served in a martini glass! This is a creative and fun way to serve any type of appetizer. I just might have to try this next time I have company!

These new cosmetic bags by Kate Spade make the perfect gift for your bridesmaids. Not only will they be perfect for the day of the wedding, but they can be used after too!

I love to shop! And when I am shopping for a gift for someone, I almost always end up loving the present so much that I have to HAVE one too! I like the idea of each bridesmaid getting a cosmetic bag and the bride having one too. Isn’t this a cute bag for the bride? I think I might need to order one for myself!

Did you know that Tori Spelling launched a new book called CelebraTORI? In the book, Tori teaches how to “unleash your inner party planner to entertain friends and family”.

From the publisher: Tori shares all her secrets to throwing a sensational, but affordable, event. Whether she adds flare to a family game night, or plans the perfect home spa (homemade body scrub!), Tori is never short of inspiration for an unforgettable affair.  A stylish book for the home, celebraTORI is also full of beautiful photographs and graceful details, a sensational complement to her fun advice.

This picture of the dessert table was from a do-it-yourself spa brunch that Tori threw. I loved the vintage silver and old trunks that she used as decorations. The little pearly sprinkles that were added to the cake pops made it look like bath oil balls. This was a creative way to tie the dessert and party theme together.
