Same Page Monday

How is everyone feeling?!  What’s going on?  How’s your MLK Monday?  My Monday has been wonderful, thank you for asking.  Ok… Let’s get on the Same Page… there are just a few things!

1.  I wish I was at the Sundance Film Festival this week.  SNOW, COZY WINTER CLOTHES, HOT CHOCOLATE AND MOVIES!!  SOUNDS PERFECT. RIGHT?  Who wants to come with me next year?? Look at Kate Hudson looking all gorgeous.

2.  I had lunch this past week right next to two Hollywood legends, Bette Midler and Mel Brooks.  The Paparazzi also joined us for lunch too.  I overheard Bette saying she wished she would have done her hair and makeup!

That’s my head in the right hand corner.  :)

3. Just in case you were sick of searching for things to watch on Netflix Streaming, here are two awesome movies I just watched… LOVED both!

4.  Some mean Broncos fan posted this on Facebook last and I watched it and it was too soon… SO SAD!! But this was kinda funny… but not funny. NEXT YEAR, BRADY.  Hopefully, you and the team will be more in sync…

SAG Awards 2014 – Best Dressed

January 19, 2014 By 1 Comment

Allison, here, reporting for The Milly & Grace Girls!  Emily is in Mexico for a Bachelorette weekend and Caroline is in Switzerland with no Wi-Fi!  (I’m on the couch watching football.)

Side Note: This is what I think about when I think of Caroline with no Wi-Fi/Technology…

I love that movie.  Anyways, back to the SAG Awards.  I love the SAG Awards. I feel like everyone lets loose! Like it’s just the kids with no adult supervision (Hollywood Foreign Press and The Academy) around.  I also cry during most/all of the speeches.  These actors speak in a language during these awards that speaks to the hearts of actors.

Like Brian Cranston’s speech…


“The only thing that got me through is imagining and dreaming that one day I could actually make a living as an actor.”

Now onto the Best Dressed – With the SAG Awards you can have a little fun with your look than with the Globles or the Oscars!  Lupita, Elisabeth, Jen Garner and JLaw did just that…

SAG AWARDS 2014 - Best Dressed

Amy Adams was our “Almost Best Dressed”/”Half Nailed”.  We wish that she would have off set her structured dress with hair down with a sleek straight blow out instead of a structured up do would have been killer.

Lemon Ricotta Pancakes with Blueberry Sauce

January 17, 2014 By Leave a Comment

I LOVE PANCAKES!!! Remember when Caroline and I went around LA to find the BEST Eggs Benedict and Blueberry Pancakes?!  Well, I have decided to try to find the BEST recipe for Blueberry Pancakes to make at home.

While I was in Nantucket, I tried out my first recipe. Monkey made the trip to Nantucket and was there to help me out. Since were were on the east coast, Monkey thought it would only be appropriate to represent… GO RED SOX!!  You can find the recipe for the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes with Blueberry Sauce here.

VERDICT:  The pancakes were bright, fresh, beautiful and tasty.  Everyone loved them (especially with a side of bacon)… but I am not ready to say they were my favorite!  Definitely need to test out a few more recipes.

Let me know if you know of any amazing pancake recipes I should try out!
