ephemera My Name Is Mr. Bali Hai, and I Am An Ephemeraholic. As I mentioned previously, I'm planning to adorn the top of my new bar with a decoupage of Tiki and lounge imagery. To that end, Mrs. Bali Hai and I spent several hours at our local antique mall this morning digging through massive folders of ephemera, looking for ads, postcards, cocktail napkins, drink menus, coasters...anything with a tropical, stylish flair. It was hard work, but we came away with a whole bunch of really cool stuff. I thought it would be a good idea to scan some of the groovier items before they wind up under a thick layer of clear epoxy, so I'm proud to present a new feature here on the Goof, Ephemeraholic, a collection of classic drinking-related images for the nostalgic barfly. Enjoy [hic!] [Eye of the Goof] 9:14:21 AM

Jeremy Pepper on Daily Eats Heaven is Pizza and Wine. My cousin Neil - a great cousin, a great painter - has a theory on heaven. When he was in college, heaven was pizza and beer. Now as he's older, it's pizza and wine. I have to agree, although I'm not a beer drinker, and not much of a wine drinker. Last time I was in New York, my cousin took me to heaven on Earth: Otto Pizzeria. Part of the Mario Batali empire, Otto has an amazing wine list, some By (Jeremy).
