It's The WEEKEEeeennnNNDD Baby! Howz-about A Shot Of So-Co To Celebrate?! Status: More Bar Ware!
Steamboats...St. Louis. I get it. Of course there's a ton of this Southern Comfort bar ware around here. It still seems a little freaky (and fortuitous since I totally dig it!) that I find SO much So-Co bar ware at the thrift stores!
I found these last week during a quick little trip over to the Goodwill on N. Lindbergh
here in Florissant. Nice little set of 6 rocks glasses and a pair of measuring glasses all
had at fifty cents each! Not to shabby a score.
I know...if you've been reading Mr. Modtomic for any time at all you've seen So-Co
glassware about a THOUSAND times! But look how pretty when reflected off the
glass table and lit by colored candles! Yep...I've finally figured out how to take decent
pics without sunlight! This means I can sleep right up until I HAVE to get up for work
now!!! For real though, it's going to be so nice since the daylight is so limited after this
weekend (daylight savings). And really...bar ware in the day time? How uncouth.
Oh, and as an aside...THIS is how cool Southern Comfort is! No...that's not Mr. Mod
modeling there. He wishes he were the Modtomic Man! That is the grin of the bemused
acceptance of second fiddle status. "Grow some chops buddy!"
