Whats Everyone Drinking Tonight!?!?

[Johnny West]

John A brought the wine to go with last night's steaks. Back in 2013 he and Meg stopped at the winery and bought three bottles. He is going to serve the other two at Meg’s celebration of life in May. All my boys are Tool fans.

Margaritas

I'm a firm believer that a great cocktail deserves the right glass.

Margarita’s tonight… Again.

 

[Sass Muffin]

I'm still drinking coffee since 8am this morning

 

[Johnny West]

Last night I had two Grey Goose martinis and a glass of Willamette Valley Pinot noir.

 

[Sass Muffin]

That would have blown my head off

 

[Johnny West]

I slept well….

 

[QSis]

I would have been incoherent. I imagine, anyway. Have never had more than one martini in a sitting.

No, but three’s my limit. I over indulged with gin on NYE 1969 and lost my taste for gin, except in a G&T.

And I don’t drink and drive. Nancy quit drinking and does the driving…

Oh, right. I forgot that you have vodka "martinis". Yeah, I might be able to drink two of those. But I'd miss the gin.

Wonder if it works for limes, too?

Dunno. That lemonade was good….

I’m thinking a margarita tonight…

 

[Johnny West]

I forgot we had this, got buried in the garage. I’m almost afraid to try it… any ideas on how to mix this?

I brought a jar of moonshine to a friends' house for us to try. See photos below, LOL! (these were candid shots, not posed)

It’s been a long day - got an oil change, went to commissary to get a few things, then drove cross country back to church in Puyallup to leave off boxes of chips for sack lunches for the homeless or less fortunate. The G&T is my first of the warm season and hit the spot after nothing to drink all day save a cuppa coffee this morning.

 

[Sass Muffin]

Coffee.
I will be all night at work too. Lol

Last night’s beverages at Toscano’s… Grey Goose and Pinot Noir.

 

[QSis]

Today is "a scotcha!" as (some) Bostonians would say (not me!)

Anyway, tonight I decided to have a shot of gin with my usual raspberry/lime seltzer (I usually have a shot of raspberry vodka). Wedge of lime, fresh garden mint.

Refreshing, but I prefer my raspberry vodka in this cocktail.

[Sass Muffin]

Water and iced tea since 10am this morning.
I did have coffee of course - before that.

 

[Johnny West]

I had one large G&T.

 

[Johnny West]

Tonight was a Ste. Chapelle Petit Verdot and was excellent. I’d love to go back to this winery but won’t happen.

Why is that? Where is it?

[Johnny West]

Nancy quit drinking and we have hundreds of bottles of wine I’m drinking and occasionally give away. Ste. Chapelle is a very nice winery close to the Snake River outside of Nampa, Idaho where we used to overnight on trips to Park City. We don’t stop there anymore and been taking different routes through Oregon.
