Setting the table for a romantic dinner can be intimidating. However, with a little creativity, you can easily create a dreamy setup that is sure to impress any guest. From the lighting to the centerpieces, this post will help guide you through the process.
With St. Patrick’s Day right around the corner, you better be upgrading your drinkware collection to match the spirit. With thousands crawling the bars to celebrate the Irish festival with a bang, you better deliver in style. Yes, decorating items, green party accessories are huge, but upgrading your St. Patty’s Day bar with silver drinkware will take you even to the next level.
The end to a year that will forever be etched into the soul of the entire world requires remembrance. Even small New Year’s Eve (NYE) rituals at home can still be fully decked out with stunning tableware that pays homage to the end of a tumultuous year.
The time for giving has once again arrived, with Thanksgiving leading the charge for a holiday season that could (possibly) help us forget the woes of 2020.
Who doesn’t love a good cocktail? Unfortunately, due to the ongoing pandemic, the pleasure of enjoying a craft cocktail at a bar or restaurant with friends is either limited or impossible.
The weather is getting warmer, the days are getting longer, and there’s a hint of Spring in the air. Unfortunately, in light of the recent “shelter in place” orders sweeping the nation, the chances of you celebrating the shift in seasons with your friends in-person are very low. In these unprecedented times, we have to do what we must to stay healthy… and SANE!

On the first Saturday in May, Louisville is besieged with
visitors that have come to witness the most prestigious thoroughbred horse race
in America. From a birds-eye view, Churchill Downs Race Track becomes a moving
flotilla of expressive hats showing a flash of silver cups.
Surrounding a dirt race track are stands full of race
enthusiasts, socializing as they wait to see who is going to become the winner
of the first leg of the Triple Crown trifecta.
This “Run for the Roses” race is full of
traditions that date back to 1875. It has run every year since. Three-year-old
papered thoroughbreds gather to race a mile and a quarter for the most exciting
two minutes in American sports.
Crowds fill the infield singing “My Old Kentucky Home”
by Stephen Foster during the post parade, then toast the winner with the
traditional Mint Julep libation. The late afternoon sun sparkles on the specially
designed silver Mint Julep cups as race traditions are upheld.
Since 1875, the Kentucky Derby has enthralled spectators from around the world, making it the oldest continuous sporting event in America. You needn’t have a stake in the outcome or even know much about thoroughbred horse racing to get swept up in the excitement. An appreciation for boozy Southern drinks and outrageous hats will suffice.
The big event is all over in a couple of minutes, so start your celebration early.
