Boots and Blessings

I have given my little speech on pity parties to three different people this past week, so it seems something is in the air. Let me share my view on pity parties with anyone who needs it: Namely: I'm all for them. Even during the holidays. Especially during the holidays. Look, sometimes life just stinks. It's unfair, and it's miserable, and dammit, why should you be going through this? You don't deserve it! No, you don't. To steal a line from The Best Man Holiday , nobody deserves misery, it's just your turn. Now, as with all parties, you need to have good food, drink, and entertainment. Oh, and dress. People always want to know what they should wear to your party. And a guest list. Guest List: You. Dress: Something incredibly comfortable. Jammies. Yoga pants. Sweats. Food: Something comforting. This is not a time for counting calories. Pay attention to the four food groups, sweet, salty, fried, and au gratin. 1 Drink: Whatever works for you. Spa
