Miss Manners Said THIS Is Wrong, Y’all!

This Thanskgiving…LEAVE YOUR FOOD AT HOME! If you are invited to a function of any kind, come empty-handed.

According to articles posted by The Washington Post, Buffalo News, and Mercury News (to name a few), the concept of not arriving an empty-handed guest is a fairly new custom. It is opposite the teachings of Miss Manners! 😮 😮 😮

While it is okay to bring chocolates or flowers, never wine, as a thank you to a function, bringing food with you can be perceived as disrespectful to your host. Most hosts prefer that you do not bring anything and some have gone as far as putting “don’t bring food” on their invitations. While some hosts don’t mind the idea of anyone other than themselves preparing and bringing food so they don’t have to cook, hosts who enjoy entertaining their guests do mind.

So this holiday season, pay close attention to your invitations and if they don’t say bring food, or they say ‘bring nothing’, do just that!  Flowers and chocolates as a thank you is fine, but leave your Shar-Coochie at home (or at least in the trunk) along with your tupperware.  That you can bring in if they say take our food home with you! 😉

Have a happy gathering!

Becoming Charlotte

One of my favorite shows in the past couple of years has been Bridgerton on Netflix. And my favorite character aside from Lady Whistledown and Lady Danbury is Queen Charlotte!  I mean she was just bad as hell!  Rising from a less than favorable state to become Queen?  C’mon! How can you not want to emulate her!  Well maybe not the snuff habit, but definitely the other qualities.

Her style alone was just hooooly crapballs amazing; especially her hair.

So when I received my invitation to a good friend of mine’s wedding where we could dress up to experience Bridgerton, I thought who better to channel than the mighty Queen Charlotte.

The only problem is, aside from some reaaally old wigs in SL, there isn’t much to mimic what we see on the show.  But here is my spin. A lovely mash-up of two of my favorite styles. Hopefully, I’ve done the mighty Queen justice.

Sampling Treats for Tots Goodies!

It’s Octoberween! Which means a month of candy, candy, candy and … Treats for Tots!!

That’s right! It’s the 2nd annual Treats for Tots fundraiser and I picked up some great swag while I was there as well as some free treats for the kiddos when the come pay me a visit at work!

So what is Treats for Tots you ask?

It’s is this AMAZING fundraiser put together by Nuggets! Community Sim and over 50 stores have put out exclusive items for sale where 100% of the sales will go towards the real world Non-Profit Toys for Tots, an organization that helps provide gifts to needy children over the holidays.  In addition, countless businesses have also joined in this fundraiser by putting out Chocolate Bar Donation Kiosks (they look like Wonka bars if you’re wondering…) to help collect money for Toys for Tots.

Last year, they collectively raised over $6,000 USD (that’s a little over 1.7Million in linden) and we’re looking to try to do the same this year!

Aaanyway, my sweet tooth led me through the sale (and the awesome Chocolate Factory interactive experience) and I picked up some much needed candy to give to visiting kids while at work.

But like a good, responsible citizen of the world…I have to sample the goodies before I just…hand them out, you know.  And man am I glad I did! Because lo and behold, one of my favorites was in the mix! Mmm, mmm, MMMM!!!  Such a perfect little piece of confectionery heaven!

Be sure to swing by Treats for Tots to not only do the sale and the sticker quest but to also visit the interactive Chocolate Factory! Tonsss of fun going on there!
