As you know, the Kitten Lounge Holiday Gift Guide sponsored by Dashing Diva is up and running (and yes there are more to be added). On this Tuesday, I wanted to share with you some of the things that I love and if you want to know more about them, visit the guide for indepth descriptions and links to their sites! I love using my Outlets to Go and Orbit! There are also some giveaways that will come from this page that will begin next month! Enjoy the images and I think that Shawn Johnson looks adorable holding her MINIKIT Chic!

One of the creators of this event was one of the most notable BBQ restaurants - Blue Smoke. Throughout all the panels, everyone had talked about them and I was definitely interested in checking out how they created the amazing tastes that were making people smile. As I walked around the park, it was interesting to see all the ways that people make their signature barbecue. The Big Apple BBQ Fest had so many booths that at first, I didn't really think about the main attraction - actually seeing everyone cook! Thankfully, my boyfriend (the guy in the navy shirt with sunglasses on) took out his camera, which made me think of my Flip. Although I didn't attend today, it was hot yesterday and I don't know how everyone was able to keep working with the heat of the pits and also the weather! I did learn one lesson, when it came to the end of the day and you saw that no one was in line, that's when you knew that they were all out. Unfortunately we had to pass up a few booths because of this. Enjoy seeing the hard working folks at Blue Smoke.
