Party Time: Jello

This weekend I am going to a "1960's beach party" themed party (whatever will I wear!?), and while dreaming up what retro food to bring, jello immediately came to mind.  So for today's Party Time, I'm going to focus on the delightful & mysterious creations of Jello.  More importantly, the Jello Shot. Here's what I'm about to tackle today:
So cool! Plus, instead of trying to squeeze the jello out of some soggy paper cup, we can just take a slice, on a plate, and actually get some of this in our mouth.  Why has this not always been the case?? I've always liked jello shots at parties, but let's face it - it's not a clean experience.  All these, can of course, be made without alcohol.  Jello for all!

Spotlight: Catnip Alley Studio

I was browsing around etsy the other night, and these beautiful paintings caught my eye.  I'm in love with the bold colors, and all the modern geometric shapes!  Dayna Stedry, of Catnip Alley Studio has some amazing geometric paintings that would look fantastic in any home, especially mid century modern ones!  These bright & colorful pieces are eye catching and have a special place on my wish list.  I've gathered a few of my favorites, the picture itself is a link to that item in her shop, so get your clicking finger ready.  See them all after the break...
