Bloggers' Night Out! with Martha Stewart

Martha Stewart knows how to put on a soiree! More framboise svp in my Honeydew Agua Fresca! Last night I attended Bloggers' Night Out put on by Martha Stewart and what a fab night it was! I thought you should come along and have some fun too... I love this bow-hat from unbride.com... Merci Dawn of One Girl Cookies. You have the BEST lill' chocolate sandwich cookies ever.

Have you ever had frozen melon-margarita pops?
You haven't lived. Brilliantly all the food served is in the current Martha mag, FOOD EVERYDAY, as I discovered on the subway home.
miam-miam!
These blueberry slushies (very delish)
Were made by anyone who wanted to get on this bike and pedal!
S'Mores bien sur!!
There were lots of things to make and do at the soiree...
This darling gal made wedding party favors...
Like my new ring!
Martha's Daily Wag was there in full force. Woof.
Do you know Matt Bites site?
He's a dynamite food photographer and gives away his secrets like crazy. He's a darling man and I'm not just saying that 'cause he admired my Canon S90.
Love you Matt!
There were stupendous give-aways too. I was eye-balling the OttLite which I did not win but I bought one today at Amazon so soon I can have TrueColor lighting too.
Of course there were mini Whoopie Pies again from One Girl Cookies. Hey they're au courant ya know :)
I'm racing because I'm late for the BlogHer Conference! Eeek Must run. I'm speaking tomorrow so ya'll come SVP to:
Passions: Transforming Online Places into Art Spacesabout how to make it as an artist online bla bla bla
BONJOUR WEEK-END et MERCI Martha!!!


This giant Orea wedding cake was for looking not tasting...

  12. Wow, Carlg - makes me want to quit my day job and do something foodie/frilly/artsy ...

    Writing direct marketing advertising materials is so bleah.

    But I used to make handmade cards that were sold on Rodeo Drive (Card Art by Cynthia) - and worked for slave labor money, so I know how hard that life can be for me when doing it all myself, by hand, even in the best of shops/retail locations.

    I'll stick with what I do and live through posts like this - and enjoy!

    Bet your speech is zee best!

    On the last item on your post I believe you have already transformed your blog into an artsy enjoyable and beautiful space to visit each day.
    Have a wild and delicious week end.
    BONJOUR

  15. MARTHA was NOT in the house.
    Martha had left the building.
    But she surely was there in spirit BIG TIME.
    It was tremendous fun and babies were even allowed, not that I had one to bring. Hard to take shots with a baby drapped over yr arm...

    YEs Jeannette I do think you of all ppl should sTART A BLOG!
    Like today!!
    So we can talk to you nonstop all day long.
    We'll have you making macarons in no time at all!!

    Man if only I had won that Kitchen Aide type thing last night...

    I really wanted to start cooking after the food last night. Easy stuff too.
    Blogging does have it's perks for sure.

  24. Carol:

    So enjoyed meeting you at BlogHer. My friend Jane Pollack introduced me after your speaking session and I admired your beautiful business card and shared my passion for Paris and their lavish draperies.
    Looking forward to following your blog.

  26. My mouth was watering the entire time that I was reading this post.... XD
    And also, I LOVE "Hey Soul Sister"--It's one of the few songs on the radio that my mom, brother and I all can dance to together and where none of us say "Can I change the radio station now??" in a whiny voice lol!
