Wednesday night was huge for us here at Sugar headquarters: we hosted a private screening of the Sex and the City movie! The extravaganza involved glamorous outfits, gorgeous looks, a plush red carpet, and a fantastic after party.

Use a kaleidoscope of colors to create the look of a Moroccan dinner. Start by setting the table with an eye-catching Moroccan print tablecloth. Add ceramic plates, rustic silverware, and plain linen napkins. Serve the drinks in Moroccan tea glasses.

Oh, and in case you're curious, the 27-year-old chef is currently single. For all the juicy details on Spike, read more
It may not lend itself to a clever rhyme like ice cream, but I'd still be willing to scream pretty loudly for gelato. May is actually National Gelato Month, but you can scoop up this dense, rich Italian ice cream all Summer long. It's fairly simple to make at home, or you can use store bought gelato to create your own desserts. For some ideas on how to enjoy gelato, just click "start."
