I was Peppered and First Classed! 

Okay, so the title of my blog is a little strange!! (it's Lizbeth, not Carlos.. btw) soo last week was absolutly fun!! it was hectic, but none the less FABULOUS I was sooo psuyched about the Sex and the City 2 - COSMO party at Pepper's and that took  a big chunk of my week, but when I was able to walk in that theatre in my Manolos.. and was able to sit down, and enjoy the movie.. I know that it was all worth while!! i've noticed that it got semi-bad reviews, but really? I think everyone could related at least a bit.. no?

So as this week approached.. my big BIRTHDAY came up yesterday (Wednesday) i'm big on birthdays! but not on my own, I loveee celebrating them, but I like something intimate with few people... so I was hesitant about having a "birthday-dinner" none the less.. I said "LETS DO IT!" I wanted a chill-place but with ambiance so I immediatly thought of Pepper's.. it sounds like i'm always there (because I am..jk) but fact of the matter is that, i lovee the enviorment there!! Giselle (the commander in chief at Pepper's... haha) asked me what kind of balloons I wanted (you get your table decored with ballons of your choice for your special day there.. FOR FREE) and ofcourse, I said TIFFANY COLORED, TEAL AND WHITE! I was expecting balloons and delicious food.... and instead I got this..

completly blew my mind!! I did not expect this gorgeous surprise!! let me show you the centerpieces...

they are GIANT martini glasses, filled with tiffany colored boxes, GIANT rhinestone rings.. pearls, aqua boxes, and the table was COVERED in Giddy cupcakes that were dressed up in TIFFANY COLORS!!  and I thought I was getting balloons ONLY!! omggg!! heck no!! this was above and beyond!! The Fabulous Sandra from FIRST CLASS ENGAGEMENTS decorated the table!! It was such a wonderful birthday gift from her and Giselle and such a pleasent surprise!! I completly did not expect it!! it was absolutly divine!! everything looked amazing... we were expecting about 12 people.. but we had about 18 guests.. they were quick to accomdate them.. and our food came prompt and as always, DELICIOUS! I couldn't decided from the spaghetti or a salad.. soo I ordered both! (HEYYY I'M THE BIRTHDAY GIRL!) don't worry.. I ordered the kids spaghetti.. and I didn't finish my salad anyway.. but look what else the birthday girl got

those delicious YELLOW drinks you see there are MANGO MARTINIS!! covered in a trechas rimm... AH! it taste like liquored-liquid-candy! and ofcourse, the GIDDYS!! and what's a birthday girl without a birthday cake...
