Take Your Pants Off, Stay A While

I recently came across a post on Mr. Condescending's blog where he invited everyone in for dinner and a tour of his home. I decided I wanted to play, so I'm inviting everyone over for an evening at my place! I hope you'll kick back and enjoy yourselves.
First off I'd like to offer you a drink. This is my personal stash, but I'm sure if you ask, my parents will be more than happy to share any of their alcohol with you. My dad's recent discovery of tequila has provided our home with more than a few bottles of "the good stuff." I prefer vodka with mixed with just about anything... maybe you'd like a Fig, a Cape Cod, or a Vodka Martini? You let me know.Next I'll attempt to make you some dinner. I recently bought my very first cookbook. I've never had to cook until about four months ago (the perks of living at home and eating out a lot) so I thought I'd get something easy to start with. I know there is a very large poplulation that hates Rachael Ray, but I kinda like her... don't hold that against me. Plus, her recipes are pretty easy, and I'm all about easy!

You have two choices:

French Onion Sliced Steak with Gruyere Sauce and Green Beans
Gnocchi with Fresh Chicken Sausage and Broccoli Rabe

And if you don't like it, well, tough titty! Ha! I never professed to be a good cook, but I can make a mean cocktail!
Next we'll peruse a few of my favorite books. I read mostly Chick Lit and Vampire Stuff so I hope you can find something that will interest you. If all else fails, I can read passages to you from "How to Make Love Like a Porn Star," in my seductive, sexy voice. That's sure to get a rise out of anyone!
Moving on to the movie collection, you've got a lot to choose from. We can watch a season of Entourage, Love Actually, or maybe Knocked Up. I'm leaving the decision up to you! And keep in mind, I've always got Twilight as a back up, although, the boys might not be into it!

Well, there you have it... a night in at my place. Hope you all enjoyed yourselves, and I look forward to next time! Maybe you'll invite me over?

This is fun isn't it!?

Where is your book of mormon though? Auri really wanted to read us some passages.

I know so many people loathe rachael ray but regardless, I'd eat that food you say you"ll make!

I like vodka n cranberry, I hope we don't have to wear our "Brother Mr C" name badges on our shirts!

Ms. Salti said...

Mr. C - Just because I live in Utah, is it necessary to insult me with the Mormon references? Come on! If you do come over, I'll make sure to have one of my neighbors come over and preach to you. I'm sure any one of them would be more than happy.

And keep in mind, hot men in my house are not allowed to wear shirts... the name badge will have to go on your pants!

Ms. Salti said...

But then I guess that goes against what I named the post, so, shirts are ok, no pants!

Mr. Condescending said...

Lol what a coincidence, I have the same exact rule for women in my home! Interesting!

Auri said...

How fab!! I love it=) Can't wait to post mine...
Do I have to take my clothes off too?
Like I need an invitation...

Ms. Salti said...

Aurs - You usually take your clothes off at some point so I expect nothing less (or should I say more? ha ha ha)!

Anonymous said...

Ahhh! Just another person who has more than I do! LOL!

Jaime said...

you know that you got otin interested in this post because of the title... but he was expecting porn :)

Ms. Salti said...

Otin - More of what? Chick Lit? Movies? Alcohol? Do specify!

Jaime - I know, I had to get the male readers over here somehow!

Tonya said...

Hmm we have some of the same tastes in books. yay! I had a nice lil visit at your house.

ChinkyGirLMeL said...

That looks fun. Can I come over for a drink? hehehehe. I'd like some vodka martini please. =)

A Country Wife said...

oooo that gnocci dish looks yummy...

I have decided the first alcoholic drink I have once boyo is born will be a martini with olives in. Can you post me a good martini cocktail/drink that I can make and garnish with olives?

For now I just have to eat olives and dream.

I kindof collect recipe books... unfortunatley that's a far as I get.. Full of good intentions but then I have to write a shopping list and that is far too organised :)

Organic Meatbag said...

OK, well I think you already know how I feel about Rachel Ray...hahahaha, but nevertheless, I would show up, and pants would not even be optional... I drive better with no pants on...

Ali said...

This post = adorable.

And I LOVE How to Make Love Like a Porn Star! GREAT book.

Ms. Salti said...

Siren - Thanks for taking the tour.... I would have made you a drink!

Mel - Come on over, girl! Vodka martini, coming right up!

CW - I still haven't made the gnocchi, but it's on my list. I'll find you a good recipe in my drink books when I get home and I'll post it for you!

Meatbag - I know you hate RR, but at least I'd be making you dinner! I've never driven without pants. I'll have to give it a try sometime!

Ali - I love that book... I need to read it again, it's been a while!

I like your martini glasses!
I also like your collection of books....very similar taste to mine.

Ms. Salti said...

SB - Those are only 4 of about 50 (if not more) martini glasses of mine. I have a small obsession!
