What to Download: New Music on iTunes
Tuesdays are big in entertainment-ville: Not only do all the new DVD releases hit Netflix, but new music also pours into stores, including iTunes. So I take a spin through each week's iTunes music releases and pick out some albums and tracks worthy of a download. Here are today's selections:
All the indie buzz: The first album from the much-hyped band (Spin called them "the most buzzed-about new band since Vampire Weekend") Black Kids is probably a must-have for anyone trying to keep their iTunes loaded with the latest and greatest.
Jess Takes the CMA Festival Stage With Fellow Country Stars
Jessica Simpson stepped up to the mic along with some of country music's biggest names to help kick off the 2008 CMA Music Festival in Nashville last night. Of course, Jess is no stranger to the stage, but there have to be some big-time nerves showcasing her new material to an audience who already has lots of preconceived notions about her. Considering the warm reception you all gave "Come on Over," hopefully it all went over great.
Beyoncé Gets Countrified
Perhaps it's just me, but Sugarland's cover of Beyoncé's "Irreplaceable" is down home hilarious. They gave it their best shot at last night's American Music Awards show, but I don't think "ya got me twisted" has the same appeal when sung with a southern accent. Beyoncé eventually stepped on stage to show us how it should done, but her voice couldn't make amends for the accordions in the background.

Noteworthy Nibbles — Apr. 21-28, 2009
If you thought last week was jam-packed with food events, then get excited for this week, as the festivals just get better. If I could teleport myself around the world, there's no question I'd hit up the nation's celebrations, from pickles to pie to asparagus to spam.
We will, however, be supporting the cause to end childhood hunger at Share Our Strength's Taste of the Nation series (if you're signed up to go to the San Francisco event, perhaps we'll see you there!).

Fab Finding Follow-Up: Love Me Down Under
It's honeymoon week in Sugarland so I told you to make believe you're going down under to Australia with your new hubby. You'll be doing a little bit of everything — hiking, clubbing, shopping, sightseeing — so you'll need a well-rounded collection of clothes. But don't forget it's Winter there now so try to stay away from hot-weather items.

Sugar's Sex and the City Movie Premiere Party!
Last night was a night to remember in Sugarland. Not only did we get to see the Sex and the City movie, but we were also treated to a fabulous afterparty, complete with yummy cosmos, mini appetizers, and sprinkle cupcakes! The food and decor were awesome (thanks, PartySugar!) but you know what I was most excited about .

Kidoodles: Felt Gingerbread House
We're having a gingerbread house contest at Sugarland, and I planned on building one with the usual supplies, but changed my mind and decided to go another route after considering the time and effort that goes into making a cookie house.
I've seen the great felt kits from Twinkle Kids that you can order for $55, but it was too late to order one so I improvised. Rather than waiting for pre–cut felt shapes and candy bits to show up at my door, I went out and bought a few pieces of felt and made my own.
