play (pin)ball!
We've been talking a lot about Halloween lately, and posts about Christmas presents and decorations are just around the corner. But before those two holidays hit us, we have something BIG to look forward to first--the World Series begins October 27th!
I know what you're thinking...The Afternoon cares about baseball? I know it might come as a surprise that the art, kitchen, and home goods store would even know what the World series was; but believe me, we have several unexpected enthusiasts on our staff and a number of books devoted to the trivia, stories, and rich history of America's Pastime. But if you aren't much of a reader (who has time when there's a game on?!) never fear, we have plenty of products for you, or the hard to shop for baseball lover in your life. We've already blogged about the King Pepper baseball shaped pepper mill, but if you want something REALLY spectacular, you can splurge on the new Classic Baseball "Under The Lights" game! Modeled after classic wooden pinball-style baseball game, players young and old launch the pinball and swing the bat to hit singles, doubles, triples and home runs--all under working stadium lights! This is an heirloom quality piece that you can display proudly in your living room or family room all year long.
