You're invited to a cocktail party, mid-century style!

Hello and welcome to the Velveteen Lounge Kitsch-en! The lovely Vanessa asked us to

create some vintage appetizers and we love requests, so here are some straight out of

the Mad Men era, courtesy of the book Cocktails and Snacks, by Robert and Anne London! Grab

a cocktail and let's dive in!

Classic appetizers require classic cocktails and it doesn't get more classic than the

Algonquin! To make my favorite version, all you do is combine 2 oz of rye (I'm using

FEW Spirits Rye Whiskey), ½ oz dry vermouth and ½ oz pineapple juice. Shake with ice

and strain into a cocktail glass! Who's ready for appetizers?

We have four classic appetizers on our buffet: deviled eggs, shrimp dip, pigs in blankets

and bacon-wrapped dates, all of which are from 1962's Cocktails and Snacks! To make

the deviled eggs, all you do is begin with 6 hard boiled eggs that have been sliced in half, with the

yolks milled or mashed. To the yolks, add 1 TBSP mayonnaise, 1½ tsp vinegar, a dash

of pepper, ¾ tsp mustard, ½ tsp Worcestershire sauce and ¼ tsp salt. Combine and spoon into

eggs. I like to sprinkle mine with cayenne pepper.

Cottage cheese dips are straight out of the '50s and this one has my favorite, shrimp!

To make it, all you do is combine ½ lb of cooked, chopped shrimp, 1 cup cottage cheese,

3 TBSP chili sauce, ½ tsp vinegar or onion juice, ½ tsp lemon juice, ¼ tsp Worcestershire

sauce and 4 TBSP milk. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

It doesn't get more classic for a cocktail party than pigs in blankets! For this easy

favorite, all you do is slice pizza crust or crescent rolls from a tube into strips

sized to wrap around cocktail franks. Wrap and bake at 450 degrees for about 10 minutes

or until browned.

Finally, we have bacon-wrapped dates! To make these easy favorites, all you do is stuff

slices of parmesan cheese into pitted dates and wrap each with a half slice of bacon and

secure with a toothpick. Bake at 400 degrees for about 15 minutes, or until browned.

Some may scoff at this menu in 2017, but I think you'll find that these appetizers

will disappear at your party! They're classics for a reason and perfect for soaking up all

of the booze that will be flowing! Start sending those invitations - cocktail party season

is quickly approaching!

Which of these appetizers was your favorite? I like the dates!

I did, too, but that shrimp dip was oddly addictive!

There's not a loser in the lot!

That's true.

ESEE Junglas II Hard Use Knife Review. The Update to the classic chopper. - Duration: 8:18.

We all know that about 70% of all knife purchases nowdays, are social media knives.

Their mainly used for Instagram, Facebook groups, Reddit, Snapshat I recon.

Youre like Youtube isnt a social media.

Shut up.

And if youve been following me on Instagram you'll know that I've been working on a review

of the Esee Junglas II... sorry I mispronounced it, the JUNGLAS II BROTHER- for a few weeks

now.

I had a setback in my review and broke the knife while repeatedly pummeling through knotted

wood while camping.

Sounds smart.

I'm not going to dwell on that too much- other than say batoning happens and sometimes knives

break- but ESEE has a killer warranty and will swap out any of their knives at any time,

if they fail.

Are you the 8th owner?

They don't give a shit.

The 9th owner can suck it though.

ok just kidding.

They took care of me, and since I haven't learned my lesson- I'm back to repeatedly

pummel some more wood, and properly break in the Junglas II- the update to their classic

Junglas knife.

They made sequal smaller than the original, which might sound un-American, unless of course

you buy both.

So let's look at those dimensions, I'll put the Junglas figures in parenthesis, for your

pleasure- not mine because it takes longer.

Like the overall length and weight, with and without the sheath.

The blade length and the tree gutting edge- if I had it my way these videos would be 30

seconds.

The handle size and grip area, you're like who is forcing you to make them.

Spine thickness and handle thickness.

Helllppp....

Cool.

The Junglas II shortened up a bit, as to try and compete in the every day carry market-

I assume.

Next up the Junglas III which will be a folder, because they're trying to grab some of cold

steels... idiots... err customers.

You're like didn't you buy a cold steel.

The blade is made from 1095 carbon steel, with a textured power coat, to resist rust

and look tactical.

The powdercoat covers the tang and blade spine- and a similar thickness to other Esee Powdercoats.

The blade is a drop point shape, with a flat grind, so it works well as a slicer and for

food prep, provided your food had a beating heart 5 minutes prior.

The blade was super sharp right out of the box.

The handle is nice and big.

My hand is a little bit dwarfed by the size, and I could even crowd two hands on there

if I got especially mad at that log.

Believe me my hands arent small.

There's no jimping and the micarta scales are smooth, but fabricy feeling- because that's

what micarta is.

The micarta scales hide a full solid tang with no skeletonization.

Again solid tang, not a compliment outside of knives.

The back of the knife has some metal sticking out, called a pommel for people who like accurately

describing the parts of their knives- you know I dont give a shit.

You can even fit a paracord sculpture in there, cause the hole.

The deep grip of the handle is nice and the quillons on the front and rear keep your hand

from slipping whilst a chopping.

The sheath.

the sheath is kydex and cordura, and molle compatible.

Or you can hang it off your belt like some sort of savage.

It's got snaps and plenty of loops and seems pretty durable, and flexible in how you mount

it.

Just make sure your trenchcoat is molle compatible, like subscriber Remove Kebeb.

It also has a snapping loop that keeps it secure when you're hanging from the monkey

bars

Let's do a quick chopper size comparison.

Go ahead say it get to the choppa I saw on knifecenter they sort of compared the ESEE-6

size to this.

Well this is quite a bit bigger.

I would call the ESEE 6 a large bushcraft knife whatever that means, and this is a chopper.

Which is in my head in order of size from the smallest, a big bushcraft knife, a chopper,

and a machete.

I tend to think the ESEE 6 is a little too large for regular boring knife stuff, but

not as good for chopping.

Then let's look at my $25 Bud K Kukri... which is a cheap chopper made in india that was

dull out of the box, but is easy to sharpen and chop with.

It's a little bigger and slightly heavier.

And shinier

Ok let's beat it up.

Now again, I did break my first Junglas II, so I am prepared to try and break this one.

Spoiler alert I won't.

Esee's customer service was great... they even slid into a DM with me via Instagram...

made sure I sent it back to them, and told me this isn't a common occurrence.

And they didn't even call me a dumbass YouTuber- at least to my face.

I have many many large trees in my yard and always have to break apart large limbs that

fall from trees.

Plus wearing this around the yard a lot will keep the neighbors from wanting to talk to

me.

YEAH I THINK HES MAKING THOSE YOUTUBE VIDEOS AGAIN HONEY.

I THINK HES GONNA HURT HIMSELF ONE OF THESE DAYS.

It seems a much more useful blade than my Yoshimi

Machete, although that one really helps me look cool for m'lady.

Ok so the chopping goes well I guess.

I know it sounds weird but I didnt have my camera rolling while I broke my last Junglas

II which is weird, because theres usually a camera rolling most of the time I'm using

a knife or flashlight- like Tom Brown intended.

Speaking of.

By the way, whats your Instagram face look like.

Does it look like youre pooping too?

I experienced no blisters or discomfort from the handle, and no real hot spots neither.

The Junglas II is a bit less fatiguing than my other choppers, I guess mainly because

it's lighter.

So I'm sure some of you here might be getting Esee fatigue, after my recent ESEE rection

and I do have the PR4 review coming up soon... a week or two away at worst.

Or never at best.

Which looks like it's the perfect size I've been wanting to use portrait mode and the

gingham filter on.

Ok... so the blade didn't break... and it was still pretty sharp after the video shoot-

which is all you can ask for these daysAnd this morning I learned that Going Gear owner

Marshall Hoots died at the age of 37.

Thats my age.

I have worked with him on videos for a few years now, and he was always a nice person

to talk to even though are correspondence was just email.

Anyway, in the description theres a link to a Go Fund Me account for his kids college

funds.

If you can throw a few bucks his way that would be awesome.

Go check out Going Gear.com if you havent before.

RIP dude, youll be missed by a lot of us internet dudes, as well as everyone who knew you.

Thanks for watching.

'Blade Runner 2049' Review: Sequel to Sci-Fi Landmark Is an Instant Classic - Duration: 5:29.

'Blade Runner 2049' Review: Sequel to Sci-Fi Landmark Is an Instant Classic

So what I can tell you about Blade Runner 2049 without having the spoiler police on my ass? Elvis is in it; ditto Sinatra.

(I wont say how for fear of reprisals.) I can reveal that the sequel runs 2 hours and 43 minutes – thats 45 minutes longer than the 1982 original, based on Philip K.

Dicks Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? For Blade Runner junkies like myself, whove mainlined five different versions of Ridley Scotts now iconic sci-fi film noir – from the release print to the Directors Cut and the Final Cut (the last two minus that voiceover Scott and Ford hated) – every minute of this mesmerizing mindbender is a visual feast to gorge on.Harrison Ford, at his hard-case best, comes roaring back as Rick Deckard, long past his days as blade runner in a relentlessly rainy Los Angeles circa 2019, when his job was to retire replicants.

When four of these off-world androids escaped and wound up in the City of Angels, he was the assassin assigned to waste the quartet before they could pass as one of us.

But then Deckard ran off with a repli-cutie named Rachael to do.

what? Marriage, kids, the whole nine yards? Is that even possible? The first film left us hanging.

Scott went on record saying that Deckard was himself a replicant – an idea which horrified Ford who argued for his humanity.

Cut to 2049: Deckard is still missing 30 years later, and Officer K (a superb, soulful Ryan Gosling) is the young blade runner on his tail.

His combative boss (Robin Wright) thinks the M.I.A.

detective is the key to something that could break the world. Shes not kidding, and that prospect intensifies once Jared Leto shows up as Wallace, a replicant designer and demigod who cant keep up with the demand for his product.

As for Ks personal life, he lives with Joi (Ana de Armas), a virtual companion who can morph from homemaker to hottie in a nanosecond.

But on those cold winter nights, how do you snuggle up to something transparent? Besides, K is haunted by something in his own past? An implanted memory or the real thing?.

Am I being vague enough? I can reveal that French-Canadian director Denis Villeneuve (Arrival, Sicario), taking over for Scott – on board as an executive producer – shows a poets eye for details that reveal emotion.

The Blade Runner mythos could not be in better hands.

And its good to have the first films screenwriter Hampton Fancher return, joined this time by Michael Green, to keep that philosophical Philip K.

Dick spirit alive.

And camera genius Roger Deakins (give this man an Oscar already!) creates a look that both salutes and moves on from the original, forging its own dazzling identity.

When K and Deckard finally meet – Gosling and Ford are double dynamite together – the film takes on a resonance that is both tragic and hopeful.

It turns out that the theme of what it means to be human hasnt lost its punch, certainly not in a Trumpian era when demands are made on dreamers to prove their human worth.

Blade Runner 2049, on its own march to screen legend, delivers answers – and just as many new questions meant to tantalize, provoke and keep us up nights.

Would you have it any other way?.

Tom Petty Dead: Classic Rock Icon Dies At 66 After Full Cardiac Arrest - Duration: 4:46.

Tom Petty Dead: Classic Rock Icon Dies At 66 After Full Cardiac Arrest

Our hearts are broken. After suffering from full cardiac arrest, rock legend Tom Petty has died, a family spokeswoman confirms. Get all the gut-wrenching details here.

Tom Petty is dead, less than 24 hours after he was rushed to UCLA Santa Monica Hospital on Oct. 1 — due to experiencing full cardiac arrest, a family spokeswoman confirmed to the LA Times.

"On behalf of the Tom Petty family, we are devastated to announce the untimely death of our father, husband, brother, leader and friend Tom Petty.

He suffered cardiac arrest at his home in Malibu in the early hours of this morning and was taken to UCLA Medical Center but could not be revived. He died peacefully at 8:40 p.m.

PT surrounded by family, his bandmates and friends.— Tony Dimitriades, longtime manager of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers on behalf of the family.".

The rock legend previously regained his pulse after EMTs raced to his Malibu home, found him unconscious, and transported him to the hospital, but sadly, his condition never improved, according to TMZ.

He was allegedly put on life support, but when no brain activity was detected, a decision was made to pull the plug.

Tom, who became famous with Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers in 1978 with Breakdown, was only 66 years old at the time of his death. Before his passing, Tom continued to tour around the world Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.

In fact, the band, who hit their prime in the 70s and 80s, just wrapped a tour at the end of September, closing out with a string of shows at the Hollywood Bowl in honor of the group's 40th anniversary.

"They were some of his best shows ever," a concertgoer told HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. "I've seen him tons of times. He was great, sounded good and was running around stage like usual. He was telling funny stories to the audience.

He always fully connects with the crowd and makes it very intimate. There was no sense that anything was wrong with him at all." So sad. Click here to see more pics of Tom Petty!.

Following his hospitalization and reported death, the LA County Fire Department released the following statement to HollywoodLife.com, We received a call at 10:45 PM for an older man in cardiac arrest.

When EMTs arrived at the residence they immediately began life-saving procedures and the patient was transported to a local hospital.

At the moment we cant confirm the age of the man or that it is Tom Petty as much of those determinations will be made by the hospital medical staff..

Tom is survived by his second wife, Dana York Epperson. Thet met in 1991 when she attended one of his concerts, but he was still married to Jane Benyo at the time. Tom has two kids, whom he shares with Jane — Adria Petty and Kimberly Violette Petty.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Tom Pettys family and friends during this difficult time in his life.
