Hosting Your Own Awards Viewing Party
Disclaimer: I did not receive any products or compensation for my publishing of this post. The ballot shown above was provided by SkinnyPop as a fun way to promote watching the Golden Globes with friends.
The 74th Golden Globe Awards Show is upon us. Since Jimmy Fallon is the host for this year’s show, I may convince my husband to watch it with me. You can watch it on NBC from 8pm-11pm EST on Sunday, January 8, 2017.
I do not always watch the Golden Globe Awards show. When I do, I like to watch for my favorite actors, TV shows, and films to win. (I usually forget to watch the awards show if a football game is on at the same time.)
Have you been paying attention to this year’s nominees? Who do you want to win? Which films and TV shows do you consider award worthy?

What a great idea Adrienne. I can see how are a party like this could be fun.
When I lived in New York several years ago there was a group of us women who would get together once per month to watch the movie 9 1/2 weeks with Mickie Rourke. Pre botched plastic surgery. lol We all committed to bringing a new woman with us. Some of the newbies became permanent monthly members and the group grew large. It was so much fun sharing delicious dishes and girl talk.
Lydia, thanks so much! Your monthly movie night sounds amazing! What a great way to bond with and make new friends! How long did the group last? You need to write a blog post on it! 🙂 Thank you for visiting! ~Adrienne
I’d love to be with my family when New Year is coming. We always sit around the table and tell our story. Children is always naughty, but It’s a must have event in my house year by year.
Emily, your time around the table with family sounds awesome! Family traditions are so important! Thanks for the visit! ~Adrienne
I love going to parties where I can meet different people and make friend with them. It’s a good idea. Food at parties is always various and delicious!
Kristi, I love meeting new people as well. It’s always fun to become friends with them, too! What is your favorite party food? Mine is chocolate covered strawberries. ~Adrienne
