Good morning! By the time I finish writing this it will be afternoon, so good afternoon, as well! Hope everyone is doing fantastic. This blog might be short because where I am at, the sun is fully shining, and it’s perfect weather! It’s calling everyone’s name to get out. Walk, run, sit in your back yard, play some catch, basketball if you have a hoop, grill, enjoy the shine and light. If the sun could talk, I envision it saying “get on out here you crazies!” Settle down and take a chill pill is what I say back. You know you might be going slightly nuts when you are talking to something that doesn’t even talk or have a brain. It’s neither here or there, whatever. With that being said, rest assured, we will be kicking it outside, under the sun, taking up all the vitamin D in no time. Basically that means, when I finish this.
Dinner parties, have always been a thing. I LOVE them. I actually love everything to do with food, cooking, eating, and the whole experience of it all. It stems back to childhood memories of sitting down at a table to eat with my family. Celebrations that we can call parties, all were fun, lively, entertaining, and yummy. I love the feeling of being surrounded by people that I enjoy, while eating scrumptious food. What could be better? This is the ONLY time I will not ask you to comment below.
Let’s play a game. Three guest at your dinner! You can only chose that amount of people. Besides family and friends, who would you chose? After awhile of thinking about it, my guests are: Lucille Ball, Barack Obama, and Kristen Wiig.
Lucille Ball is an icon. She is out of this world hilarious. She was the definition of a boss lady. Her input on the show “I Love Lucy”, was almost 100 percent. She worked as the director, producer, editor, manager, and made the show what it was, and what it remains to be- BRILLIANT. Although she has passed on, her legacy, her humor, will always be remembered and carried on. Side note, her work IS getting me through some sleepless nights. If I could see her at a dinner a month from now, I would say thank you, and give a huge air hug. Or, hopefully, full on contact to contact bear hug.
Barack Obama. I will not go into politics here because my whole point of this blog was for people to relate and be happy. One thing I will say and you can disagree, in my opinion, he was a heck of a president. That is all I will say regarding to anything political. I want to talk about him as a person and what I learned from him through watching. He is a family man. Although I do not know him, sometimes you can just tell through actions. He loves his wife, his children, and life in general. His smile alone could light up a room. I consider him a class act. He is highly intelligent, AND for a little bonus or for a cherry on top, he dances and sings! π
Kristen Wiig- Just saying, or typing her name, can make you laugh. If you have not noticed, I thoroughly enjoy people that can make others smile, laugh, and make days or nights brighter. She is known for her Saturday Night Live career, but now is seen in movies. She just insanely talented! I can almost say, I thrive to be her. Is that too much?
Dinner with these three? YES PLEASE! They are all inspirations to me. They have all impacted me in some major ways. Call me crazy, but if you can make me laugh and turn that frown upside down, you have already impacted me in the most smallest way, but biggest way as well. Does that make sense? if not, well, read it again. Or don’t. Just go on being confused. I would love to be a part of the comedy of it all at that particular dinner. The things that I would learn from all three…that is truly inciting. To be with them during times like these, that would be wildly comforting. I would have SO many questions. I imagine Lucille and Kristen making jokes, being silly. Meanwhile Barack is trying to talk more about serious issues, but in the end, gives up, and they all laugh until their face hurts. Perfect dinner party.
Keys to really good dinner parties? In my opinion, good food, good company, good laughter, and good presence.
If you have time, I would love to know your three dinner guests! Comment people! I’m learning about myself through writing, and I would love to learn about you through reading.
Enjoy today! Get out there. Stay safe, stay healthy, and MUCH love,
Abby
