I’m hosting a swank Martini Party tomorrow night for a couple of friends and I get to bar-tend. Seems like word of my martini makin’ skills is getting around town. Should be a spanking-ly good time. The bad thing though is just how damn expensive it can get when you make those flavored concoctions. Pictured over is over $80 worth of liqueurs. Yow. But I guess that what happens when you wanna be hip and serve tasty drinks. The martini glasses are chilling. The jazz music is ready to spin on the cd player. My fancy duds are ready to be worn. It’s almost time to shake ’em and drink ’em.
