DEL REY—Any shopping party that involves free Kogi tacos is alright with us. Wall graphic company Blik is throwing a tenth birthday party for itself tonight and they'll be offering real food. In addition to tacos, there will be cupcakes, plus beer and wine. The invite's above; no RSVP is necessary. [Racked Inbox]
