Getting Ready for the Oscars!

2/24/2012

It's that time of year again...the red carpet, the stars, and of course the movies! 

How are you gearing up to get ready for the Academy Awards this weekend?  We will be cozying up at home with our baby, but if there are any films you want to see before the big show on Sunday, you should check out AMC Theater's Best Picture Showcase!  I read about this Oscar movie marathon over at one of my favorite blogs: Kelly Market.  For $30 you can buy a 4 film movie pass for Saturday, and for $40 a five day film pass for Sunday.  This also includes a $5 voucher for concessions.  Given how much it costs to go to the movies, I think this is a great deal! 

And if the show inspires you to pick up a copy of The Help and read the book that the film was based on, you can find a hard copy of this best seller at Overstock for $9.60.

Now on to the important thing...the snacks! 

We plan on indulging in a few luxe for less treats this weekend...

Freshly popped popcorn, seasoned with a little olive oil, salt and pepper.  So simple and so good.

Trader Joe's Wild Mushroom and Black Truffle Flatbread. 
Black Truffle pizza for less than $5 is definitely eating luxe for less!

Six Point Bengali Tiger.  It's a locally brewed IPA that is not too bitter, and has nice citrus notes to balance out it's flavor.  And who doesn't love a fancy beer in a can?!

Twizzlers.  Well I eat these every night...so what else is new?!

What will you be snacking on this Sunday evening?

Happy eating, drinking, and red carpet watching!
