Hosting An Oscar-Worthy Party

2012 Academy Awards

by: Gav Martell

Anyone can invite over some friends, bake some cookies, turn on the TV and call it an Oscars party.  But if you're gonna do it—you might as well do it right. Throw a party they'll be talking about from now until next year's awards.

By honouring each of this year's Best Picture nominations with a pizza pie you'll bowl over your party guests. The wonderful thing with pizza is you can make it as simple or complex as you'd like. Order the whole thing from a delivery joint, or make it from scratch at home—the choice is yours.

However, as you move on into the normalcy of everyday life it gets harder and harder to rekindle that passion that was once so abound.

The Face, The Voice, The Blog!

By day, Gav is VP at a software company. By night he is busy cooking up a storm, exploring culinary adventures, watching copious amounts of Food Network, drinking a nice red wine, training for half-marathons, playing endless amounts of hockey, and being a dad to three awesome taste-testers—not necessarily in that order.

You can find Gav on his food blog—Grill Interrupted—where he takes a break from the busy to jot down some recipes. He is always on the lookout for new foods to experiment with and new ways to get the kids helping out behind the counter.
