Home safe and sound from Tales of the Cocktail, and I’m still nowhere near caught up in all of my writing…or my detox. It was a dizzyingly enjoyable trip that included a lot of different cocktails that are special to the city that calls itself “The Birthplace of the Cocktail”. I sat in bars with [...]
Mixology Monday
My how the months do fly by. It seems like I can’t go a week without it being a month later these days. It seems it was only yesterday that I was writing my rum entry for Mixology Monday…but maybe that’s just because I write about rum all the time. Nah, that can’t be it.This [...]
