Welcome to Three 31 and the 12.12.12 link-up party.
I’m really glad you’re here. =)

For the last few weeks, I’ve gone back and forth on the topic of this 12-inspired post. After all, as hostess, there’s a lot of pressure to be spectacular! Here are my picks for the Best of 2012. Bloggers, add your 12.12.12 post URL below!

1. Best Smut Trashy Romance Novel
50 Shades Trilogy

2. Best TV Mini Series about America’s Favorite Feuding Families
Hatfields & McCoys starring Kevin Costner and Bill Paxton on The History Channel

3. Best Musical Event with Wrangler Jeans and Cowboy Boots
Luke Bryan and Jason Aldean

4. Best Interview
This was an epic Q-and-A session.

5. Best Three-Shot Group at the Shootin’ Shed

7. Best Food in Washington, D.C.
Crab cakes at Old Ebbitt Grill and dim sum at Ping Pong

8. Best Cuss-Worthy Moment
Seeing red and blue lights in my rear view mirror. Let’s just say I’m on probation in a nearby city for exceeding the posted speed until February 8, 2013.

9. Best Human Connection
Jonas was the site foreman at the Methodist Church’s reconstruction project in Leveque, Haiti. It was a blessing to live, work, play, worship, and be in community with him.

10. Best Kept Southern Secret
Add baking soda to freshly brewed tea to prevent bitter taste. Works like a charm. Every. Single. Time.

11. Best *FREE* Font

12. Best Adult Beverages  (I couldn’t choose just one!)
Salty Watermelon (Fresh Watermelon Puree + Vodka + a splash of the sea)
Spiked Arnold Palmer (Sweet Tea Vodka + lemonade)
