Benjamin Franklin Would Have Liked Our Golden Globes Eating Party

Benjamin Franklin once said, "There can't be good living where there is not good drinking." I learned this from one of those bathroom books I bought this weekend called Keep Calm and Drink Up. I won't argue with The Benj but I'd have to add "eating" to the quote as well. Last night, my friends and I somehow pulled out of our asses a really "good" Golden Globes dinner party on the inspiration of "appetizers" (we were too lazy to plan an actual dinner). The Benj would have been proud: we ended up drinking Manhattans and appetizing on two types of spinach dip, bbq chicken wings, fried cornishons, caesar salad, goat cheese brie and jam crackers, garlic bread bruchetta and red carpet red velvet cupcakes. All made from scratch and all delicious.

Thanks to everyone who trekked through the cold to make last night a success, unfortunately, I can't say the same for majority of the red carpet choices made at the Globes. More on that later, but for now, some food porn:
