I like to think of myself as a storyteller. Mostly I tell stories about knitting.

This past weekend, my BF from college drove over to visit and was sweet enough to help with my Twilight Party. She’s always been a git ‘er done kind of girl, but since having twin boys, I think she’s kicked it up another notch. THANK YOU, K for the help and the laughs! She hadn’t been to one of my Twilight parties before and wondered if she should have packed vampire teeth. She’s a very good sport, but it’s not that kind of party.

For bloody-rimmed glasses:
Pour some lite corn syrup into a saucer and add a bit of red food coloring. Stir. Add more food coloring until the desired color is reached. Dip the glass into the mix and spin. Stand the glass up and clean the outside so guests do not get sticky from the bloody decoration.
(Thank goodness K found the corn syrup, I couldn’t find it and we almost didn’t have bloody glasses!)

Rose Petals

$5 worth of rose petals went a long way.


Twilight Party Coffee Table

a really long way.



Twilight Party and Aggie Win

An Aggie Win never hurts.



Twilight Party Dining Room Table

Never underestimate what rhinestones can bring to a party.



Dark Knight Rises Cocktail

Drink if you're Team Jacob


Found cool red/black drink on Pinterest for the signature cocktail. It is called “Dark Knight Rises”.
Attempted to buy black vodka (berry flavored) at liquor store.
Proprieters looked at me like I was crazy. (turns out the brand is Eristoff)
Bought black food coloring and clear raspberry vodka.
Added food coloring to vodka (if you must know, I unintentionally added more than was reasonable).
Made drink (ice, 1 oz Cranberry juice, 1 oz lemonade, 1 oz black vodka in that order).
Black food coloring bled into the entire drink (it luckily, did not seem to stain my teeth)….I have dubbed this the Jacob Black Cocktail. Enjoy!
Ps. Happy BD2 Opening Night, Twilighters!

    Twilight isn’t really my kind of thing, I’m more of a Vampire Diaries kind of girl (the actor who plays Damon, woah!). But that party looked like a blast!

      I enjoy Vampire Diaries also. I think someone on twitter said it best, “At the end of the day, we’re all Team Damon.”
