I have never been to a Derby party (maybe we don't have them up here in Canada - I've never heard of any) and I've never had a mint juleb and I've never worn a snazzy outfit with a hat, but I think all three would be fun.Grace @ Sense and Simplicityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14185222544452668586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010931580827952387.post-18744920506096865062013-05-03T00:32:44.937-04:002013-05-03T00:32:44.937-04:00We have the Melbourne cup down here, it is a chanc...We have the Melbourne cup down here, it is a chance to dress up, drink champagne and eat good food if you can find a space in amoungst the enormous crowds.

I wrote about the derby today too...I love it but I also have never been. I used the same Southern Living pic for the mint juleps, too. And, I also do not like mint juleps either...I haven't been able to drink bourbon since a bad experience in college..;)<br /><br />Have a lovely day! xoxo<br />Sandy at You May Be Wanderinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09108555245405638530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010931580827952387.post-2080596179714567522013-05-02T07:30:04.451-04:002013-05-02T07:30:04.451-04:00I AM A BIG HORSE LOVER!
