Drink Up

My new project is building up a well-stocked liquor cabinet in my apartment (what can I say, it's been a long winter, and there is no immediate end in sight). While I don't plan on storing my bottles in anything this fancy - I already have a shelf picked out in my kitchen - I thought this old card catalog was a cute idea. I kind of like the look of bottles lined up, staring back at me from behind the glass of the cabinet, though. Call me old-fashioned.

How about you? Do you have a liquor cabinet in your home?





::Update::
What more could I ask for than *expert* advice on which bottles to fill my shelves with? Daniel B. has graciously agreed to offer his recommendations for what should (and decidedly, what should not) make its way into my cocktail shaker at the end of a long workday. Hey, I'll take advice from one of Albany's most discerning palates anytime! Thanks Daniel.

Disconnected

Just finished watching this documentary about the prevalence of computers in today's society, which I found relatively interesting.

Thanks Jess for including my Roses print in your Etsy Treasury! It's so nice to be included among so many beautiful items. I'm definitely feeling the wintertime blues and looking to get to spring as fast as possible, too. Keep warm!

Have a Great Weekend!

Well, readers, I've about had it with winter. I'm locking myself away until spring. What about you? How are you all coping with these dark, cold days?

Get Inspired: Cooking

I thought to look for one of my favorite cooking shows online - and there it was! Actually, Nigella Lawson has done a few, slightly different-themed shows over the years, but they're all relatively the same and I've been watching all of them one by one for the past week.

Ika Bags

I'm in love with the purses and messenger bags from Ika Bags. The bags are handmade in Paris, and you can even request a custom order. I love them all so much, it will take me until the weather turns warmer to decide which one to order to be my new spring/summer bag!
