Glamour Puss Party- Paws on Hunk

SO-U.TV brings you to another cool party this week. On 22 July HK Alley Cats Watch hosted Glamour Puss Party for the forth times to raise money for helping the plight of Hong Kong’s street cats. It includes great prizes and an auction of a hunky bachelor (or was he a stripper? Nah, his stripping doesn’t look professional to me).

Morning After: Walk of No Shame

Going back home the morning after a wild night with the look that everybody can tell? Now AMP  Energy drink salutes the walk of shame with their new tv ad. It does make you feel better after you had sex with a stranger and going back home the next morning doesn’t it? I can totally see this turned into a musical, “Walk of No Shame.”

A trip to Vegas and she lost her last name

Carrie Underwood kinda lost her last name in her new music video, “Last Name.” How did it happen? Well she married some guy she met in a bar and decided to marry him. The only problem is, she doesn’t know his last name. But hey! What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas right?

Something nice and sparkling but not champagne?

Okay, so you want to organize a cocktail party and you need to prepare food and wine. If it’s a celebratory occasion, you would probably want some champagne. The truth is, we want to have a few extra bottles just in case some of your friends decided to bring a date or a plus one. Of course we don’t want to treat our guests with cheap champagne, but we certainly don’t want to cry over our bills when we make our purchase. So what do we do? Here’s a suggestion, sparkling wine- Prosecco

Prosecco is a sparkling wine made of a variety of white grapes grown in the Veneto region of Italy. Traditionally Prosecco was made as a soft, somewhat sweet wine with just a little fizz, but today’s Proseccos are dry and very bubbly. It can replace champagne in some cocktails such as Mimosa if you like. (Which I suggest if you’re making Mimosa, better than using cheap champagne) Like other sparkling wine, it is served chilled.

It generally goes best with seafood, especially calamari and carbmeat. But as most champagne and sparkling wine do, it pairs nicely with everything even the heaviest pastas. If you wish, you may also use it as an ingredient of an Italian mixed drink Sgroppino (with vodka and lemon sorbet).

So next time you want champagne for an occasion but wish for less pricey alternatives, try Prosecco. Note- Italian wines are so chatty!
