hello. i am stopping in today to share these pretty bits from an antique store downtown. the life magazines were from the 40's-60's and so so cool. they were shrink wrapped, though, so i couldn't see all the pages of what i imagine to be amazing american lifestyle pictures.
tonight i was treated to drinks at tavern law a mock saloon/speakeasy with a historic and rich cocktail menu. their bent is that they want to make a cocktail that suits you exactly. the bartender even came over to ask a few questions about flavor preferences, which led to a cardamom-lime gimlet. floral, sour, spicy and delicious.
this weekend we biked to the edible plant sale and picked up heirloom hot weather plants: fish hot peppers, jaune flamme tomatoes, thai basil, broccoverde, the list goes on. i will be sure to have more garden details soon.
my goal this week is to catch up on everyone's blogs and say hello again.
oh, those time magazines! i love flicking through old magazines for the photography. so inspiring.
ReplyDeleteand i can't wait for your garden update! i wish i had a place to grow edible plants.
LOVE those keys! and can't wait to hear more about the hot crops!!
ReplyDeleteps: LOVED the post about the secret cafe :) what an amazing concept!!
Those old Life magazines are really great. Especially the ads!
ReplyDeleteTavern Law sounds like such a cool place. I tend to dislike cocktails so maybe I should give this place a try.. perhaps they'll make a convert of me. : )
