Academy Awards Night - Wine, Cheese & Fabulous Cake


The party was amazing amounts of fun, as it always is. I believe this is was the fourth annual, but it could have also been the fifth annual time we've dressed up like a bunch of movie nerds and filled out ballots to compete for an Oscar nominated movie - this year Toy Story 3. Results from the Awards are below, and then below that find pictures of the fabulous cake that was made for me as well as who won and how far apart my final score was from Matt's.

Last night, the Academy reaffirmed my faith in the Academy! The King's Speech won! And it SO deserved it! I think it was a far superior movie to all the others in the category (Matt wouldn't let me say it was far superior in our post yesterday, so I'm saying it today.)

Look at this cake that someone who is so modest he doesn't want to be named made for me. Isn't it amazing:
