Under the crush of parties and events, I bring you a little something, something.

Saturday, December 5. Tina Shoulders of LaidBack Home presents the Cupcake Show. I will be speaking about cupcakes at Harmony Designs, 115 South 4th Ave Lower level in Mount Vernon, NY. 1PM. FREE.

Sunday, December 6. Do some crafty holiday shopping at the Bust Craftacular. Metropolitan Pavilion 125 West 18th Street. 10AM-8PM

Sunday, December 6. The FCW Holiday Party will be at Angels and Kings. Hosted by Yolanda Shoshana and featuring performance by Jessica Delfino. There will also be a clothing swap. 4-8PM

Another weekend, another round of holiday parties…

Things of note from hosts and guests:

* Bring funky desserts like dessert burgers made with cookies and candy sushi made with rice krispies treats.

* Show your culture by making Puerto Rican eggnog.

* Bring along friends in town from other cities (show ‘em how New Yorkers party)

* Take loads of group pictures in the host’s bed (fully clothed, of course)

* Make a mystery tropical punch (Smirnoff Vodka, cranberry juice, Sprite and tons of fresh fruit) The mystery is you wonder how you got so smashed.

* Enjoy yourself as this is the most wonderful time of the year!

* Get plenty of rest so you’re ready for the New Year’s Eve bash next week.

During the holidaze, you may be invited to more than one event on the same night. Try to coordinate so that you can attend both. This is good for many reasons:

1.Keeps both hosts happy!

2.Meet two different sets of people

3.Be the center of attention twice in one night

4.Show how popular you are by leaving one party early and arriving at the other late

5.No one will know how much you ate, drank or flirted at each party (unless you blog about it)
