Greetings from Las Vegas


Random Chick is in Las Vegas for New Years and is currently involved in a bar brawl...but, she took the time to send everyone at the Wild Onion a post card. Can you guess which one she is?

The Wild Onion - Bemidji Style


This place has been way too quiet.
Do I need to be both bartender and party starter?
C'mon people... it's time to get off Facebook and celebrate.
Tonight I turn in my office keys and name badge
and won't look back for a second!!!

So raise a glass with me.... I'm ready to rejoice in my freedom!!!

The Wild Onion Costume Chest





I've decided we need a well-stocked costume chest here at the Wild Onion. This way, when you come here and want to cast off your everyday self, you can dress yourself up to suit the task.

I'm going to begin by tucking the leftover outfits from the Goth Ball in there.

And I assume we need a plastic fireman's helmet.

So, what else should go in our costume chest?

Goth Ball at the Wild Onion

Hestia my Inner Goth and I would like to extend a warm invitation to the first annual Wild Onion Halloween Goth Ball. We hope you can make it!

Let me offer you some sartorial possibilities for this occasion--

Ladies, the ever classic mixed metaphor late-Victorian-Goth-Lolita look:










And for the gents (I know, I know, Sarge cracked up when he saw this and my sister commented that it was "Cinnabon Goth"--a reference to Azrael Abyss and Circe Nightshade)--but humor me, won't you:








If you don't care for the Cinnabon Goth look, feel free to break out your black jeans and cloaks...

We'll snack on these:







And of course partake of the lovely absinthe ritual!





And when we're very well oiled, and possibly hallucinating, we'll dance



To this!





But it's pot-luck, so what music, snacks, entertainment, or drinks will you bring along to the Goth Ball?
