Kahlua Scented Perfume Could Be The Hot Holiday Gift
Kahlúa scented perfume is now a thing. It was inspired by the smell of an espresso martini. If you've ever smelled them, they have a lovely coffee, chocolate - and vodka, scent. You can pre-order 'Blend No. 38' for $105 dollars a bottle, at Imaginary Authors.
And how about a fish flavored brandy? Market Watch has all the info on Tamworth Distilling in New Hampshire which has a lovely new brandy that tastes like trout. Is this something we were actually missing at the bar? Tamworth Distilling likes to honor all things New England. They also had a crab flavored bourbon at one time.
Bad News: American Women Have A Binge Drinking Problem
A new report on binge drinking found that American men are not the biggest binge-drinkers in the world. Hallelujah! Definitely NOT what we really want to be at the top of the list for. The Daily Mail report describes binge drinking as six or more drinks in one drinking "session."
Denmark ranks first. Danes admit they like their booze. Then Romania. The U.K. comes in at number three. The United States landed at number ten. If you look at just stats for women, they rank higher-fourth in the world. American women have a binge drinking problem. But for American women, this is not something to be proud of. According to the fourth place number, it means twenty one percent of American women have gotten hammered in the past month.
The Daily Mail stated, U.K. ranked first at nearly 26% when it comes to females and binge drinking. The CDC reports that excessive alcohol use is a leading preventable cause of death in the United States. It can shorten lives by an average of 26 years. So next time you reach for drink number five, or six, in one sitting, maybe take a step back.

Dream Big At Fantasy Lab Las Vegas
Fantasy Lab Is about Seven Dreams:
The Fantasy Lab concept revolves around seven rooms, representing dreams, in which you spend about ten minutes each: Labyrinth, circus, stars, insomnia, nightmare, kaleidoscope, enlightenment.
Oh, It's Immersive:
Cocktails and Great Service:
Life is full of dreams
One of the neon signs that welcomes you to Fantasy Lab in Las Vegas' Fashion show Mall. Seven rooms demonstrate dreams - good and odd - that we have when we sleep.

Fantasy Lab in Las Vegas has all sorts of cool neon signs, reminding us to be ourselves. Everyone is a little weird, so why not embrace it, and let your freak flag fly.
Carla Rea via BMG Las VegasInsomnia
Fantasy Lab in Las Vegas has a room that represents insomnia, and how you might feel if you're an insomniac. It's full of color, clocks that you are probably either trying to beat, and constant movement.

Why a giraffe? I don't really know. But again, it's all a part of the insomnia room. If you've dealt with lack of sleep, you see a lot of things that aren't necessarily there. Perhaps even giraffes.
Carla Rea via BMG Las VegasDream time
Shhh... it's time. We all dream in very different ways. Funny, strange, colorful, fuzzy, good - and sometimes bad. So lay your head down, and dream. Don't be afraid.
Dripping clock
The artwork at Fantasy Lab Las Vegas is different and colorful, everywhere you turn. From sculptures, to furniture, to video pictures that change after every glance.

"Do one thing everyday that scares you." Something to try, but something that is also hard to do. So don't be afraid, to be afraid! Be comfortable with the uncomfortable.
Carla Rea via BMG Las VegasThe future...
"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." As you walk through this room, the colors are constantly changing on the etched glass. It a really cool feeling, and very motivating to read these quotes.
Carla Rea via BMG Las VegasIt might not be easy...
"It might not be easy, but it will be worth it." As you turn every corner there is a new and different saying at Fantasy Lab in Las Vegas. It's truly a room full of colorful inspiration. And who isn't in need of that?
Carla Rea via BMG Las VegasWocka, Wocka, Wocka...
As you begin your dream adventure, there is a Pac-Man wall. It's awesome! Along the wall are modern vintage games: Galaga, video pinball, and more.
Dripping lights
Probably my favorite room at Fantasy Lab - the Kaleidoscope room. Color, and motion, and music like you have never seen, or heard. It completely engulfs you, and it's a really cool feeling.

There is a lot of art hanging at Fantasy Lab - but it's never the same because much of it is video, and it changes every couple minutes. So you're constantly saying, "wait a minute..."
Carla Rea via BMG Las VegasShot out of a cannon
In the Circus Room at Fantasy Lab you can play with light up hula hoops, carousel horses, (fake) barbells, and be shot from a (fake) cannon. Probably my least favorite room - might have something to with clowns - but a lot of fun nonetheless.
