Forget “Under the Tree”
January, 2012 - Issue #87
Let’s start off the new year with a new car. Some shoppers treat a latte purchase like a time share commitment - but interest rates are low and showrooms are full of shiny vehicles just waiting to grace your driveway. Won’t you adopt one now? After years of ordering the tall drip coffee when you really wanted the venti mocha, it’s time to splurge with a Lexus.

photography by William Innes
Until recently, round banquet tables have been the traditional, and - often - only choice for wedding receptions and celebrations. Today, brides and event planners can better coordinate rentals to their theme with bench seating, half circles and a variety of other tabletop sizes and shapes.

What we Love
March, 2011 - Issue #77
We’ll never forget Tess’s* wedding reception. All was going pretty well until we heard this over the sound system: “My humps, my humps, my lovely lady lumps… Check it out…” Some people love Fergie’s music. Those people were not at Tess’s wedding. But you know who was? Her uncle, the Catholic priest; her best friend (who teaches Feminist Theory at a local university); and her hyper-conservative grandparents, who - thank goodness - had no idea what, in this context, a “hump” is.

Though our selection was broad, each had one thing in common. Our Guide is filled with the kinds of gifts that say, “I know you. I know your style, I know what you like, I know what you need. And I know you’re going to love this!” We hope you feel the same way after checking out our picks.

A Little Advice for a Wayward Santa Clarita Lover during the Holidays
December, 2009 - Issue #62
Q: I’ve got a problem. I need to buy something for a special someone, and I don’t know what to get her. She’s a big fan of parks (Even the skateboard kind!) and spends a whole lotta money making sure the kids have the very best of everything. Fitness is her thing; she’s into bike trails, equestrian trails, marathons and Olympic-style swimming. She’s a do-gooder, too. My gal actively supports literacy, farmers’ markets, and going green.

240 the average number of minutes you’ve booked for your reception site
90 the average number of minutes a discount tea light burns
Your centerpiece candles shouldn’t flicker out before the real magic even starts. Pick up 100-percent soy tea lights made by Beanpod. They’ll cleanly burn for at least four hours and are available in a variety of fashion colors to better coordinate with your event.

'Twas the week before Christmas
And all through the town
Cash registers were slowing
The economy’s down.
But box stores were booming
Their sales were sure;
Lots of junk from China
They used as a lure.

Center of Attention
January, 2009 - Issue #51
This might be the first golf tournament I have ever wanted to attend.
When describing my skills on the links, the word would be “miniature,” which is good - because the only golf game I’ve ever won involved a course that featured big windmills and lots of Astroturf.

To ring in 2009, guests will again enjoy delicious food, including hand-passed hors d’oeuvres, a four-course dinner and a scrumptious dessert bar. Swinging music provided by the Bump City Band will encourage party goers to dance all night long.
