i think chris was a bartender in another life.
or maybe he is just turning into his grandfather.

lately he has been making manhattans. he likes his with irish whiskey.
and his new found favorite is a full sour dirty gin martini made with the juice of the full sour pickles from the farmers market.
olives are good but the full sour requires two slices of pickle.

we need another pantry just for his cocktail accoutrements and the many different glasses he has accumulated.
you can’t drink a cocktail in the wrong glass!

i like his G&Ts(gin and tonics) and his T&Ts(tanqueray and tonics) heavy on the lemon and lime.
a nice clean refreshing summer drink.

last night he had an impromptu card night with the guys.
back porch, booze, some vinyl and one long game of spades.

    We’ve been having fun with cocktails lately. We’ve always been T&T fans with lime, but lately have been making sidecars and grayhounds…and well then there are summer mojitos 🙂
