Thoughts, stories, ideas, recipes, cheers, and more... What else did you think you would get for a $1 tip?

For those of you looking for something on the more sophisticated side you have my apologies. This blog unfortunately mirrors the author (yours truly.) Some of the humor is not for everyone but I liked it and it's my blog so there! My patrons sometimes ask me where I come up with some of this stuff. I am glad to tell them my mind is a lot like Canada. It is sometimes a bit cold, there are a few dark corners, some of it down right confusing and even a bit dirty but there is also a lot of neat stuff up there. So I hope you all enjoy this blog! ... Cheers!

A Few Fun and Flirty Martinis

Tonight Northern New England is going to get pounded by another good snow storm. Now I love this area I really do but seriously this snow gives me the blues and makes me wish for the islands and sun. So here are a couple fun and flirty martinis to match that spirit.

Flirt-Tini
2 Chunks - Fresh Pineapple
1/2 oz. - Cointreau
Muddle these in the bottom of a tin
1 oz. - Vodka
1 oz. - Pineapple juice
Splash of Chambord
Shake this all over ice and strain
Fill Martini glass with Champagne

Couples Retreat Martini
2 oz. - Coconut Rum
2 oz. - Coconut cream
2 oz. - Pineapple juice
Shake and strain over ice
Top with a Splash of Melon Liqueur
