WW PickBack Room: The Wife, the Mistress and the Prostitute

Nothing will get you articulating opinions you didn’t even know you had like good food and fancy folk. Hence a great reason to attend the multi-sensory pairing of local art mag PLAZM and the Back Room series. Join PLAZM founder Joshua Berger and the rest of the crew at 6:30 pm to discuss “The Wife, the Mistress and the Prostitute”—provocative, right?—as essential metaphors for the lives of writers, artists and otherwise creative professionals. Hosted by Cooley Gallery director Stephanie Snyder, with food by Tastebud Farms and music by Tara Jane ONeil. Reservations strongly encouraged (email thebackroompdx@gmail.com). Podkrepa Hall, 2116 N Killingsworth St., . 6:30 pm. $48 per person, includes a chapbook created for the occasion. Map

WW PickPix Birthday Weekend

The fixin's at my fifth birthday were pretty swell, but I’ll be honest—they didn’t include a three-day party, or champagne and French cheese. All the more reason to come celebrate five years of Pix Pâtisserie. On Friday, enjoy $5 glasses of bubbly and samples from Steve’s Cheese between 4-7 pm, or come later (11 pm-2 am) for live performances by Michael Rockstar, Quiet Countries, and CJ and the Dolls. Fabulous prizes and free coffee (in-house only) dished out all weekend. Pix Patisserie, 3402 SE Division St., 232-4407. 4-7 pm, 11 pm-2 am. Free. Map

WW PickPix Birthday Weekend, Part II

Again with the Pix. You know there isn’t enough butter in your life. Arteries be damned, there’s just no faking it. So start the day off with $1 brioche—60 percent butter, comme il faut—at Pix. Or stop by later for the ice cream social (2 pm), and win a fabulous secret prize by eating 22 scoops out of a hollowed-out watermelon. Email pix@pixpatisserie.com to register your team. As if that weren’t enough, stay for Dim Sum Desserts and Belgian Beer (5-7 pm), and then dance off your caloric excesses at the DJ Battle and Dance-a-thon. DJ Erick Beats vs. Dj Tan’t vs. DJ G.Dubya—and yes, Pix is clearing out the tables. Pix Patisserie, 3402 SE Division St., 232-4407. 2 pm, 5-7 pm, 11 pm-2 am. Free. Map

WW PickPix Birthday Weekend, Bingo Finale

Mais qu’est-ce qu’on va faire maintenant, ma foi? Free coffee and French bingo may sound low-key, but after the weekend you’ve been having we’re willing to bet it’s just the right speed. Stop by for a fabulous brunch featuring savory crepes and buttermilk biscuits (9 am-2 pm), or come back later for French bingo (7-9 pm): $1 per bingo card, which includes artisan chocolate space markers. Pix Patisserie, 3402 SE Division St., 232-4407. 9 am-2 pm, 7-9 pm. Free. Map
