Soooooooooooooooo... don't know what y'all did for T-Day, but we have been CRAFTIIIIING!!! Move over, Martha! We're spending this year prepping for our wedding by returning to simpler times. We sew now. We suddenly enjoy things like rubber stamps and embroidered lace. Middlebar has shifted from its local gastropub vibe to Santa's Workshop. There really is nothing finer than listening to wwoz, thinking of all the ones we love throughout the country, gettin a little lifted, and etching some glassware.
Speaking of lifted, we are enjoying a very special bottle of wine that we purchased a few years ago in Los Olivos, CA. (Think "Sideways" the movie). It's called "The Alchemist." We kept saving it "for a special occasion," but then we realized this is a special occasion: It's an entire day devoted to a nuveau alchemy, seeking out and finding our gratitude! And we get to craft! And listen to Dylan records! Its basically the best day of our young lives. Plus we get to drink ridiculous wine. C'mon, life doesn't get much better than these moments. But it wouldn't be complete without blogging to you all about it. We love you and miss you. Can't wait to see you in April .
Dinner tonight?? Corrie's grandpa's meatballs and marinara! Thanks for the visit, Pa. (And thanks Christopher for passing down the family secrets)
Where were you? Tell us, send us pics. Post a comment and say HI.
In the meantime, feast your eyes on these puppies!
And stay tuned for more fun from the frozen tundra of Santa's Mid-Wilshire Workshop, aka Middlebar.
