Hi, all. And thanks for all the fine information and chat. I'm happy to announce our new holiday cocktail booklet, Hark! The Radio Bartender Brings, is out. It contains drink recipes from annual “Bartender of the Airwaves” appearances on WFMU’s “Fool’s Paradise with Rex,” plus other assorted...

Never heard that one before!

Deadpandiva, did you ever order this dress? I did -- this may actually be mine in the pic. We had some problems with color/fabric representation, the colors of the swatches and the online pix did not look anything like the actual dress. That may be due to monitors but I don't know. I would...

Ha! Same thing happened to me years ago, I can't believe Muffy's is still in business.

This is brilliant! Thank you. Now I can buy those old tubes I was lusting after without thinking, "oh, no, I'm buying more crap that's gonna sit around and get dusty." Thank you!

Oh, it has taken me so long to post. My apologies. There's never enough time.... This is more a magazine than a blog, fully laid out and all. Grade "A" Fancy is about NYC, cocktails, old-fashioned bars, non-trendy restaurants and that sort of thing. - K

Looks great -- I've "favorites"'d auburnsvintage.

Glass Nail Files! Also, I think I am having success with a glass nail file. It's quicker and easier, too. Do NOT buy the Revlon, it stops working after the first session. I like the La Cross. (Another great find thanks to Makeup Alley!)
