Did you see the Golden Globes on Sunday night?  It’s my favorite awards show because I love so many of the wonderful TV shows and a lot of them were nominated!  But this year I was the most excited about the nomination for Best Animated Feature because FROZEN was up for an award.  And in case you live under a rock and didn’t hear – THEY WON!!!   My kids didn’t stay up late enough to find out but seriously it was the first thing they asked when they got up Monday morning.  And then they jumped up and down so excited.  Of course they really don’t get the big deal that winning a Golden Globe is but they understand winning!  As far as they are concerned it is a winner!

We had a Golden Globes pre-party with our friends thanks to The Skinnygirl® Cocktails.  They sent me some items to help make our party more fun, for the adults of course! And I cooked some food that the kids were sure to love.

At only 100 calories per serving, these new wines offer a guilt-free way to celebrate like a leading lady and it made me really happy since I try not to drink too many calories.

We also made mimosa with some orange/pineapple juice and it was REALLY GOOD!  OK, I did have some of that and I realize I drank more calories but so much better than a regular mimosa!  Right?!
