The Depression Is In Style

I’m not so fond of this economic depression, but I’m loving the strides that people are making to make cultural reference to it.

For instance, one of my favorite spots in Los Angeles, The Edison, is toasting the financial meltdown with a melt-down of their own:

Soup Kitchen Fridays, with complimentary grilled-cheese sandwiches and tomato soup from 5-7PM

And on Thursdays, Depression-era cocktails are given Depression-era prices: 35¢!

Also, Friday December 5th, they’re going to be celebrating the 75th Anniversary of the repeal of the Prohibition!

I wish I could teleport myself there every week.
