Finding Nemo 3D In Theaters This Fall

One of my all time favorite Disney Pixar movies is Finding Nemo.    I have probably watched it a hundred times, and know most of the dialogue by heart.   Ellen Degenerous was absolutely fantastic and I have followed her ever since the movie came out originally in 2003 when it won the Academy Award for the Best Animated Feature and at the time of its release was the highest grossing G-rated film of all time.  I – as well as just about everyone I know – has since called every clown fish “Nemo” and every blur tang “Dory.”  Not to mention we have all channeled our inner Crush with some “dddduuuuuddddeeeee…”

On September 14, Finding Nemo will be back in theaters – now in 3D!  Check out the newly released trailer:

 Academy Award®-winning Best Animated Feature “Finding Nemo” returns to the big screen for the first time ever in thrilling Disney Digital 3D™. In this stunning underwater adventure, with memorable characters, humor and heartfelt emotion, “Finding Nemo” follows the comedic and momentous journey of an overly protective clownfish named Marlin (voice by Albert Brooks) and his son Nemo (voice by Alexander Gould)––who become separated in the Great Barrier Reef when Nemo is unexpectedly taken far from his ocean home and dumped into a fish tank in a dentist’s office. Buoyed by the companionship of Dory (voice by Ellen DeGeneres), a friendly-but-forgetful Pacific regal blue tang, Marlin embarks on a dangerous trek and finds himself the unlikely hero of an epic effort to rescue his son––who hatches a few daring plans of his own to return safely home.

Now I have been annoyed lately that ALL movies seem to be going 3D, but this one I am totally excited about.   Although I am fearful I may need a Dramamine to get through some of the scenes, I am totally excited to get “into the ocean” with some of my favorite characters.

Oh… and I am sure my girls will want to go see it too.

Check out Finding Nemo on Facebook for news on the release between now and September.

What is a Woozie!?

Koozies… they aren’t just for beer anymore!

It is no secret I love wine.  Specifically Moscato which is one of the few wines intended to be (and tastes the best!)  served cold.   Here in Florida we throw a lot of house parties and cookouts, and it can be a feat trying to keep a glass of wine cool for more than a few minutes.   That is, until I found a Woozie.

Woozie combines function and fashion in wine sleeves designed to keep drink temperatures constant during summer or winter, both indoors and out. Colorful, customizable and distinctive in design, Woozies are portable, stretchable, washable, foldable and reusable. With the recent addition of coordinating wine and entertaining accessories like acrylic trays with interchangeable liners, bottle bags and stoppers, Woozie products are ideal personalized presents for friends and family.

A Woozie is a drawstring sleeve made from top quality neoprene, that will keep your wine at just the right temperature indoors and out.   They also work as a great way to remember whose glass is whose!  Many occasions at our parties someone would pick up the wrong wine glass!

Woozies come in a variety of different styles – from favorite football teams (Go Noles!)  to funny sayings to animal prints and even blingy ones, you are sure to find a Woozie to match your personality.  They even have you covered for upcoming Holiday Parties:

I received a Woozie to review from the Emerson Series – which I LOVE - from their Signature Collection of Woozies.  I have gotten so many compliments on it, and intend on buying the rest of the set so that my guests can use a Woozie as well!   They even have a Guy Harvey Collection – a perfect set for the Wino Men in your life!  My father – a Merlot Man – would LOVE these!

Woozies make a perfect Holiday gift for the “friend who has everything.” I love giving bottles of wine to my friends and family, and now I am even more proud to present it wrapped in a Woozie.  It adds such a special charm to just giving a bottle of wine.    They are also great for Birthday gifts, memorable party favors, or House Warming gifts.  You can even customize your Woozie with your name or business logo.  (mentally adding this to my list of wedding favors for when we finally get married lol)

I love the Woozie and highly recommend it to all of my fellow wine lovers.  This is a “must have” for drinking wine in the Summertime!

Go on… “Get a little Woozie!”
