kinfolk + tiger in a jar.

i stumbled upon this short film a while back and fell in love with it. since then, i've been returning to the "tiger in a jar" vimeo page to pounce on any new videos that are uploaded. some of these videos started having text on them which said "kinfolk: a guide for small gatherings." well, i immediately googled that because i'm always looking for ideas for get-togethers and ways to throw a good party. what my search led me to was a fantastic magazine- published quarterly- which looks gorgeous and is chock full of delicious ideas for throwing a party. kinfolk magazine is DEFINITELY on my list of "must-haves" for 2012. hopefully i'll glean a little inspiration and throw some unforgettable parties! afterall, i do love entertaining.

(for a special treat, i've included one of my favorite "tiger in a jar" vids. enjoy!)

eames.

Fascinating and unexpected video celebrating the Eames with none other than Ice Cube. Watch it- it's pretty interesting.

it's the annual christmas cocktail party!

HUZZAH! it's finally time for my annual christmas cocktail party! chock full of delicious appetizers, festive decorations, jazzercising dancing and enough cocktails/boozey punch to last 20 people a lifetime. so with that, play this little tune and take a peak at these lovely retro pics to get excited.

Yes, there will be lil' smokies and no, there will be no 7UP. Sorry to disappoint, kiddos.


Hopefully the conversation is a little more stimulating than this picture may allude to- the punch is there to help.


Moral of this picture: Bringing gifts may yield stolen kisses. Just sayin'...


Mistletoe will be strategically placed. Don't be alarmed if that special someone mysteriously drags you to a corner of my apartment in flustered/nervous anticipation.

in memoriam.

Today is the 70th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. A heart-felt thanks to all those veterans (including both my grandpas!) who served and defended our country.
