I'm a devoted beer drinker, but things didn't start out that way. When I initially began uncorking, I devoted myself to the art of mixology. And boy did I give a lot of parties back then. Perhaps I will again when this house remodel ever gets finished?
Anyway, I was playing around last night with iDRINK's cool functionality that allows a person to enter in all of one's available household liquor. Once an inventory is completed, out pops a list of cocktails that can be prepared with them. When my list done, I of course had no choice but to make this particular cocktail based on its name alone.
Bald Woman Cocktail
0.25 shot Grapefruit Juice
0.75 shot 151-proof rum Rum
Combine with ice and shake.
To all the bald women out there (and their admirers), this one is for you -- cheers.

Tasty! And I don't really like rum!

Would you please come over to my house and drink some of that Heineken I keep for you??
I'm awash in the stuff and no one else likes it!
Can't you beg off the Museum thing and come to MovieNight?? TrainerBoy will be there! Come on!!

Homer: I knew you harbored something for bald women... your secret is out.
TIL: I promise I will come and drink every last drop of that beer! Just not that night -- I have to show up to the museum event in a tie and stand around looking smart. I do clean up pretty well when I put some effort into it. ;-)

I have got to tell Karen about that site. She is the queen of 50s cocktails.

Jeff: yeah, I have some trouble remember those days too. And if I remember them, sometimes I deny them. :-) Thanks, these pics are often pretty difficult to obtain if the subject matter isn't dark in color. Sometimes it takes 20-30 pics before I get a really clear one.
Sithi: Karen can come over time -- my bar is always open. By the way does your little one like cocktails? I figure if she can wear a big red wig, anything goes.

She got to have a tiny sip of champers on New Years Eve. She liked it. :)
We were raising a toast to my uncle who passed away in October. When I was little my parents had a New Years party and I couldn't go. I was all put out. So my uncle brought his shortwave radio and a tiny airplane champagne. We celebrated with London. I felt so special. Since he had treated me, it seemed wrong not to let her have a tiny sip.
