Can't tell you how long I laughed at this.

The Carnegie Club is an upscale cigar and cocktail bar in NYC that I recently visited since they were gracious enough to air the Mad Men series finale.
And honestly, this was absolutely the most fitting place in New York City to watch that show end. I had to dry clean the dress I wore that night due to the cigar stink that I brought home with me, but it was totally worth it.
They have their own cigar menu (which doesn't really affect me) and they allow you to smoke these cigars indoors. I may be wrong, but this has to be one of the last few places in this city where that's allowed.
If you know anyone who's into cigars, this is definitely the main place to take him/her to in Manhattan.
Baked Apple Roses
Do I have to express to you HOW HARD I would make these if/when I ever have a dinner party? Do I really have to inform you of such an obvious thought? The only thing that could make this gorgeous little dessert better would be vanilla ice cream served alongside it.
Someone give me a beautiful kitchen with a fully functioning oven so I can make these dreams happen.

To Catch A Predator IS RETURNING

The last original episode of the best reality show of all-time was filmed in December of 2008 and since then I have waited with bated breath for news of its resurrection.
A Kickstarter emerged for the new show (entitled Hansen vs. Predator), and the team ultimately raised $89,068, which was well above their initial goal. Hansen has stated that the new show will be similar to To Catch A Predator.
"We'll be having decoys come into different areas where predators may exist to conduct our investigations," he said. "That will be similar. We'll set up a house or a public place."
The biggest difference is their partnership with LexisNexis — the company that specializes in legal and business research will allow them to "find out more about a person before they actually show up at the location to be interviewed." He adds, "So, I can envision a scenario where we could show somebody's life—they're a teacher or a doctor—so you have a fuller picture and a better investigation."
I've read that Hansen vs. Predator will be underway before the end of the year and that the team is already meeting with distributors and law enforcement agencies across the country. Hansen also said that while the show will continue to focus on adult predators going after children, they may expand into other types of predators, including financial scammers and other online bad guys.

The only thing I have to say about this recent news is the following.

Wedding Dress Frame
I think everyone I know who's gotten married keeps their wedding dress in the same place - nestled in a high quality dry cleaning bag in the back of her closet. What the hell else are you supposed to do with it?
Here's an idea. THIS. DO THIS.

If this isn't the most perfect way to display it, then I don't know what is. Especially if you paid a ton for yours.
God, I love this idea.
