From ThanksGiving to DanceGiving here’s a holiday weekend in two parts. And man am I thankful for both…. Grandmothers kisses, Mom’s secret recipes, Aoki’s new single, @Austyntatious snapshots and killer calorie burning, an inspired ready, steady, go!

Thanksgiving. Miami.
Thursday. All Day.

Tradition is as follows: every member of the family picks and cooks (or pretends to cook) one dish, and every member of the family must wear clothing that resembles pajamas. Throw in some iPad speeches, a few I’m thankful for’s, a bowl of blackberry’s and serious grub love and you’ve got yourself a Weiner family holiday.

I’m thankful to be a Weiner, for reals. @amandaweiner @Austyntatiouss

1 recipe per person… its currently a mad house here RT @charynpfeuffer: Q7. Favorite Thanksgiving/Holiday tradition? #TNI 25 Nov 

@DanceGiving Music Festival. Ft. Lauderdale.
Friday. All Night.

Oh boys of Dayglow, how you disappointed me once (I’m talking to you Paul Campbell)… you left me roaming the streets of NYC, on a Saturday night, in waterproof attire. But this holiday weekend the party boys made up for it with DanceGiving, a new event to tack on to tradition. What’s there to be thankful for? 3 Stages. An off-the-path location (oh hey Ft. Lauderdale) and 16 hours of calorie blasting beats, brought to you by @Steve Aoki, @LA Riots, @Cedric Gervais, @Wolfgang Gartner and @Robbie Rivera, to name a few. If you don’t believe me, just ask the thousands of fans who danced till dawn. Seriously, just ask them. 

#Check, check. RT @Austyntatiouss: Press pass, check. @steveaoki , check. @lariots, check. Twins? @jetsetfarryn @amandaweiner check. Check. 26 Nov 

Its time. RT @steveaoki: RT @danielRiots: @Soniccmusic 745 - 9pm / @LARiots 9 - 10pm / @wolfganggartner then @steveaoki on after. get it in! 26 Nov

Weekend recap from start to finish… go!

Dinner. Momofuku Ko.
Wednesday. 7 PM.

Since its introduction into the New York food scene, Momofuku Ko has brought both a feeling of fear and exhiliaration to my otherwise settled stomach. T-Minus 24 Hours: Mental preparation begins. T-Minus 12 Hours: Starvation. T-Minus 0 Hours: Show. No. Fear.  It’s all just preparation for the Amazing Race. 
Check Top 5 Thursday: Go to Ko for the full review.

Fluke, Carpaccio, Bone Marrow Brioche, Biscuits, Caviar, Egg… Oh me, oh my w/ @jonalagem @schwartzjon and @amandaweiner (@ Momofuku Ko) 7:46 PM May 19th via foursquare

Upfront. Adult Swim Party with M.I.A.
Wednesday. 10 PM. 

At some point, many moons ago, I was just an odd girl, obsessed with an obscure Sri Lankin rap artist. Now, I’m still an odd girl, but my feverish love for M.I.A. is socially acceptable. M.I.A, also known as Mathangi “Maya” Arulpragasam is a british songwriter, producer, rapper, designer, artist, activist and rapper known for pushing the limits. She came out of the shadows in 2009 with her hit “Paper Planes” and was named as one of the World’s Most Influential people by Time Magazine. M.I.A got me through my deep, dark, artistic days with songs like Amazon, Fire Fire and Bucky Done Gun. Now, she’s repping major TV networks with her ‘fan favorites’. M.I.A., oh how you’ve grown.
