Rachael Ray Roundup

It's time for the Oscars! I will be traveling to a wedding in Arizona, so won't be hosting any sort of Oscar shindig this year, but I couldn't resist sharing some great stuff on throwing an Oscars party from Every Day with Rachael Ray. The good thing is that this list of recipes is intended for a last minute party, so you're not out of time yet!

There are recipes for Smoked Salmon Pizza, Herb Sliders, Spicy Marinated Olives, Golden Lemon Orange Bars, and Starlet Cocktails. If you scroll down a little, you'll also see suggestions for a table setting. And, highest on the cute scale is a printable ballot so you and your guests can play along.

Here are some Rachael Ray posts from around the blogosphere this week. If you see a post that you think would be good for the Roundup, or you write one yourself, e-mail me so I can be sure to include it.
