Holiday

Quite frankly, I hope it's me. Yeah, I'll be that person that brings the gift they want to leave with but last year I brought a bottle of Patron and somehow snagged that by the end of the night.

Pretty embarrassing for a Political Science graduate, but as I was searching the studio calendar for our next holiday it dawned on me that I didn't really know my history. Never too late to learn!

You could check Pinterest, SOAR, Facebook or your functioning alcoholic friend for the best holiday cocktail ideas but we found a quick video from a cool restaurant in the Napa Valley called Goose & Gander. When in doubt, I recommend Mimosas. Can't go wrong.

Get the holidays SLAMin with gifts from local artists on December 6th and 7th. It's the 2013 SLAM Winter Showcase, this year to be held at the "ballroom" of the Rug Gallery in downtown. Cool venue for a cool event! Details here:
