Shaken OR Stirred: A New Spin on the Buffet
Tuesday, May 25, 2010
When I saw this martini bar on Sunday Suppers, I knew I had to post about it (despite the fact I rarely blog about others’ posts outside of our week in reviews). Beyond the fact it’s simple to replicate and really pretty, it struck me as a brilliant way to serve alcohol to your guests [...]

One of the highest compliments I can pay a store is that when I look through their product list, I feel like I’m raiding my favorite stylists’ prop closets.
