Retro/Tiki Artist Has The Right Moves
Written by SurfWriter Girls Sunny Magdaug and Patti Kishel
With the holidays here, it’s time for parties.
To keep the good times rolling and jazz things up, all it takes is a little help from renowned 60’s retro and tiki artist Josh Agle (AKA “Shag“).
SurfWriter Girls Sunny Magdaug and Patti Kishel recently came across the ultimate party book SHAG Party – Cocktails and Appetizers to Seduce and Entertain.
Written by tiki and mixology expert Adam Rocke and illustrated by Shag, it has everything you need to host a cool party.
Whether it’s a Bongo Beat Bash you’re after, South of the Border shindig or Seduction for Two evening, this little gem of a book has you covered.
For your Bongo Beat Bash
why not start the festivities off with a Kool Kat Cooler or shake up the perfect Mondo Martini?
That’s sure to put your guests in a party mood.
Follow it with Crab Bake de Beauvoir and some Hot Dates appetizers and you will be ready to light the tiki torches.
On South of the Border night
there’s nothing like a pitcher of Sangria to get the joint jumping or a classic Margarita.
Then heat things up with Old Baja Guacamole and Jalapeno Poppers.
To liven things up even more SurfWriter Girl Patti’s husband Greg Kishel makes his special quick and easy tostadas.
Just top a warm tortilla with heated refried beans and diced onions, shredded lettuce, sliced tomatoes, salsa and cheddar cheese. Olé! It’s a fiesta! Perfect for one or big enough to share.
For your Seduction for Two evening
Rocke and Shag have pulled out the stops with an array of cocktails – Love, Affair to Remember, and more.
The menu is perfect for a battle (and truce) of the sexes – Hot Brie from Mars and Caviar from Venus.
And that’s not all, as they say in TV commercials. The SHAG Party book includes drinks and appetizers for five other parties to keep you going through the holidays and well beyond.
Plus, if this isn’t enough, check out the duo’s other retro/tiki party books. In no time at all, you’ll be the “host with the most.”
