• Iranian Film and Food at Downtown Library Tonight

  Given the outpouring of love for House of Kabob in a recent Bites thread, here's an event that might be of interest: The downtown public library tonight hosts a preview screening of Arusi Persian Wedding, a documentary by Iranian-American director Marjan Tehrani. The film from PBS' Independent Lens chronicles the return of the filmmaker's brother to Iran with his new American wife for a traditional Persian wedding ceremony that brings him face-to-face with cultural differences and his lost herit

• The Virgin Lips Movement: For Those Who Find Abstinence Pledgers a Bit Too Lascivious

  On Fox TV's Red Eye, Greg Gutfeld discusses The Tennessean's story on the Virgin Lips Movement--with the utmost deference, of course Southern Baptist Theological Seminary President R. Albert Mohler Jr. is at it again. In a story posted yesterday on the Baptist Press website, Mohler (the man who even Bill O'Reilly thinks is a Bible-thumping crackpot) discusses last week's Tennessean article about the Virgin Lips Movement (no, it's not an indie-rock band), and points out that Nashville's daily

• They're Hip, They're Cool, They're 35: The New Wedding Band

  Via NYT.​When I saw that the NYT had a story over the weekend about a new breed of wedding band, I expected that the piece would look into the trend of hiring a new breed of original (probably indie) bands for your wedding--"Lambchop plays original set for wedding, makes $10,000" sort of thing. But this story wasn't about that: It was about ex-traditional musicians who'd gone on to families and careers, and were playing in wedding bands on the side, one of whom--The Dexter Lake Club Band--is

• Thank You for the Memories

  ​ Digging around in one of the many, many boxes in our basement saved by Big Fella, I came across a box of wedding invitations and thank-you notes from the 1950s. These little notes are tiny -- just three and a half inches across. Both are regret notes ("Miss Cathryn Collins regrets that she is unable...."), the kind that mom would be proud to know you wrote. The kind people wrote for a century. But we don't send them anymore because every paper invitation except wedding invitations inc
