promoting dance dance dance

I love Upstairs on the Square, the food, drink, and space is mind blowing BUT i always forget its husband hunting territory (really?) The Weekly Dig sent me a nice little reminder...

HUSBANDRY

Summer Dinner Dance @ Upstairs on the Square My grandma cannot STOP griping about how hard it must be for me to find a date, now that dances have gone extinct and all. Silly grandma! Don't you know that on the fourth Thursday of every month, Upstairs on the Square hosts its Summer Dinner Dance where all ages are welcome to fox-trot and swing the night away to a full orchestra? Go for the free old-timey music and dancing ... or to find a husband! [91 Winthrop St., Cambridge. 617.864.1933. 9pm/free. upstairsonthesquare.com

cute and GREAT price!

Danish Modern Dresser - 7 Drawers - $30 (Arlington Center)
http://boston.craigslist.org/gbs/fuo/1191199584.html

Reside

sometimes...i cant wait for stuff to show up on CL. Or, I want something in pristine condition and I dont feel like hunting it down, hunting is tiring. Reside is a neat shop with furniture and accessories that makes me want to drop it like its hot (my credit card that is). I discovered Reside a few years ago while searching for a lucite vanity - they had the holy grail of lucite vanities on their web page. Alas...when I called to inquire about it, hot little card in hand I was denied. The vanity was sold and many dreams shattered. Why did Purple Rain just start playing on my ipod? ! Anyways, check out Reside. They are uber friendly and actually email/call you back.

Zweisel Martini glasses, set of 6. $38. I loveeeee these vintage glasses. I am rebuilding my collection after many unhappy breaks.
