I fell into a turkey coma immediately afterward and woke up in time for our brood to head off to my mom's house on Friday for another feast....

If you didn’t go to last night’s Two by Two First Look Party, benefiting amfAR and the Dallas Museum of Art, here’s what you missed. Hint: Gavin Rossdale sang (meow), Christian Siriano showed off his Spring 2010 collection (fierce), and lots of people partied (natch). If you’d like to go to the Two by Two [...]
