Sex and the City and bargain style!
The movie isn’t out until next summer, but it seems to be all the fans can talk about - Sex and the City is filming now and Kristin Davis stopped by to give everyone a little dish about the film. Rachael’s big question? “Is Big in it?!” Kristin says that she feels safe saying yes, since there have been so many pictures of him. The filming is taking a bit longer due to the crowds watching them on the street, but she says it’s definitely worth it, even with the extreme measures taken to keep the plot under wraps. Apparently? they’ve been doing fake scenes just to throw everyone off! How deliciously sneaky!
Kristin wasn’t alone at the Show, either - she brought a special guest, a Donkey named Forever to visit with her. (Amusing as Rachael’s said like 15 times this week how her favorite Christmas song involves the Christmas Donkey…) Forever is part of Kristin’s efforts to raise awareness for the international aid group Oxfam, which works to find lasting solutions to poverty worldwide. You can make donations to send school supplies, sheep and other animals to other countries - it’s about helping them become self-sustaining so that they don’t need continual aid.
Still looking for that special holiday outfit? Gretta says to wait until closer to the holidays (We’re down to five days! Close enough?) and it’s the perfect time to shop. Ever retailer has a midmonth scheduled markdown! And don’t fret about what to wear to those parties (There are parties? Man, I need more friends! Ha!) - dress up nice jeans with a festive sweater, or a vest from a suit you don’t wear. Go from work to evening by layering jackets over nice dresses, and tossing them later for the party, or layer a festive sweater over your white shirt and slacks to go from day to evening. It’s all about choices, and versatility. Some of the staff’s kiddos are on set to show off festive styles for less - right now the markdowns are helping parents all over get gussied up for under $100 for the whole family! Rachael’s right - they were the cutest models ever!
The “treebabe” is on hand for tips in picking out a tree and turning Rachael into a tree hugger. Embrace the tree, indeed. And as Rachael said - you can create your own caption at the left there.
As for the different trees - The Scotch Pine is sturdy enough to hold those heavy ornaments, and doesn’t lose it’s needles! The Balsam Fir is known for it’s scent, and the Douglas Fir is a good bet for smaller, lighter ornaments. And are you getting sap everywhere? Use Rubbing Alcohol to get rid of it. When you get your fresh tree home, cut off the bottom and put it in a bucket of hot water, and then keep the tree moist with fresh water daily.
What’s for dinner? Buffalo Turkey Burgers with Blue Cheese Gravy & Chilli Fries.
