Inconceivable! Somehow we missed the 25th anniversary of our favorite late-80s classic, The Princess Bride, a couple of weeks ago. Here are a few ways, both subtle and overt, that you can pay homage to one of the most quotable movies of all time.
“Farmboy, fetch me that pitcher.”
Here’s a terra-cotta pitcher for the modern princess. The graphic treatment of the glaze lends a more contemporary edge to the classic vessel.
“I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.”
Wine from Alamo Drafthouse’s “The Bottle of Wits” collection is a must for any The Princess Bride viewing party. We recommend pairing it with some peanuts.
“I’m not saying I’d like to build a summer home here, but the trees are actually quite lovely.”
Light a little fire-swamp flame atop these twig candles. Display them in containers of sand, and you’ll have two of the dangers of the fire-swamp. As for the R.O.U.S.’s, we don’t think they exist.
“I shall marry a lady who was once a commoner like yourselves … My people, the Princess Buttercup.”
This Corelle buttercup pattern is the perfect choice for serving a nice MLT sandwich. (Just make sure the mutton is nice and lean.)
“As you wish.”
This tea towel reminds you and your sweetheart that when one of you agrees to do the cleaning up, what you really mean is I love you.
“Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father; prepare to die.”
We know you’ve all been tempted to write that on your name tags, too.
