I didn't get to the Eastern Empire, but did make it to Swanberg's on Sunday. SHAG shirts are 25% off, so I grabbed one. I also found a vintage sundress muumuu. Bought a tiki-replica of one in the Bishop Museum. Also bought a Trader Vic's squatting tiki by Tiki Farm. I donated a tiki bar sign I bought there to Tiki Bun's home bar-she was thrilled! I alos got a tiki party hat-crazy metallic green cardstock type hat with a cool tiki and tissue paper. Totally nutty.

At Swanberg's for Women (next door) I got a little zippered vinyl case that is yellow with a 3D type hula dancer on it that seems to hula when you tip the case back and forth.

At Wishing Well, a party store in the Sac area, I found lots of little tiki treasures, including tiki candles, picks, plastic wall tikis like the ones on Martin's bar, glass floats, tiki chip bowl, etc.

At Mervyn's (yes, Mervyn's!) I bought a pineapple candle (a large glass pineapple filled with a yellow candle), acrylic tiki mugs, a plastic bamboo cup, tablecloth weights with tikis and Hawaiian stuff, and acrylic bamboo stemmed goblets. Oh, and a Hawaiin print bathing suit....

It was a pretty good tiki weekend...

~Pancake Circus is great-met a patron who has been going there since the 50's and says the place hasn't changed a bit! Fantastic Googie architecture!
