Kate’s Oscar Wrap-Up
The 83rd Academy Awards were held Sunday, Feb. 27, 2011. I love the movies. I love the celebrities. I love the glitz and glam. Suffice it to say, Oscar night is one of my favorite nights of the year. I’ve got all of this year’s Oscar winners here for you, but first, a few of my own bests and worsts of the night.

Oscar nominations were announced this past Tuesday. (It was a triple treat of a day for me, first the Oscar nominations, then old Punxsutawney Phil paid a visit, and then of course the LOST premier. So much excitement packed into one little day!) Can I just tell you that I LOVE the Oscars?! I have watched the Academy Awards Show (the Oscars) faithfully ever since I was a small child. As a little girl I would picture myself in a glamorous, shimmery dress giving an emotional acceptance speech, which would bring tears to an adoring audience. Never mind the fact that I had never done any acting of any sort…ever. A minor detail to me. I was sure I would grow up and somehow, someday receive an Oscar. Now I am all … Read entire article »
