Garçon Model selfie underwear contest

underwear, handsome, hunkAre you aware of the Garçon Model underwear selfie contest? I have no idea how this escaped my attention for so long. The contest is fairly straight forward, take a selfie wearing your favorite Garçon Model underwear and upload it with the hashtag #GarconModel to your Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram account for your chance to win a free pair of underwear.

Garçon Model underwear is giving away one pair of underwear to 3 lucky guys every month. Check out some of the Garçon Selfie Contest Submissions.

Boston Ballet: The Nutcracker

Boston Ballet The Nutcracker at the Opera HouseThis past weekend I attended the Boston Ballet’s annual production of The Nutcracker at the Boston Opera House theater.

Attending The Nutcracker Thanksgiving weekend is quickly becoming one of my favorite holiday traditions, because the Opera House is richly decorated, the music is beautiful and the ballet is a feast for the eyes – just look at the handsome Nutcracker Prince to see what I mean.  Even Ebenezer Scrooge would leave the Boston Ballet production with a smile on his face.

The Nutcracker is a great date night suggestion or fun night out with friends. Even if you don’t always appreciate or understand ballet, I’m willing to bet more than a few of you will leave with a bit of a crush on the Boston Ballet’s principal dancer, Paulo Arrais, who plays the Nutcracker Prince.

Performances run through the end of the year. Tickets for The Nutcracker start at $35.00 and can be purchased online here, bostonballet.org/nutcracker.
