Me also.  I have a pet turtle that is always begging for it, but I demur.

summer......

I've never seen that brand in St. Louis. Is it better than regular Bombay?

Doesn't matter I guess, I've gone Japanese so I'll be having hot sake from now on.

It's nationally distributed and is extremely good. Strongly recommended.

I thought the only hot beverages you Gorn-types drank was blood, whilest pulsatile pumping from the carotid?

Hendrick's is fantastic for the classic Gin martini. Not cheap though.

They suggest sticking a slice of cucumber either on the side of the glass or skewered with a toothpick. Cool idea.

I wouldn't waste the stuff in a G&T though.

Poultry lad, I'm allergic to carrots and all its relatives in the carotid genus.

The best martinis are those prepared per the instructions of W. C. Fields, namely, add gin then pass the shadow of a vermouth bottle over it. If you're interested in something different, get some concentrated lime juice and add it to your gin, and then you have a Gimlet. In any case, do not shake or stir (or use vodka, bleahh) because there's not enough time for that.

Another nice one (for you Brits out there) is to take your favorite gin and add Schweppe's bitter lemon. Its fabulous in the summer. Do not use any other brand (you can't get Shweppe's in the US anymore), Canada Dry does not measure up. I can't use either as I'm allergic to quinine.

I've committed an unforgiveable sin. Mr. Field's instructions were to use an empty bottle of vermouth.

it used to be Pepsi, then a Doctor told me my Blood pressure was too high. So I started drinking caffeine free pepsi. Then a Doctor told me I was a diabetic. Then it was Diet Pepsi....took a while to get used to but it was giving my belly the bloats. Now it is Unsweetened Lipton Pureleaf Tea with large ammounts of Splenda to make it somewhat drinkable. And my wife says she doesn't want me using chemicals {splenda} because she's afraid of me getting cancer.

I've learned the following...
1. Stop listening to doctors!
2. Stop listening to my wife.....no, that'll never work. Maybe if I just don't bother her with the details of my drinking problem.

Seriously: no eat, nor drink and/or smoke. I need to be concentrated on my plans.

Have you tried wearing goggles when you swim then? That may help reduce the irritation a bit.

Your ancestors didn't fight their way to the top of the food chain so some kill-joy could tell you want to eat and drink. Live dangerously..., and enjoy what time you get. [;)]

Almost anything with alcohol in it.

The way it should be! [:D]

I always wondered about that. Who is it that tells you what you have to eat in order to be healthy? Doctors!

Don't they have a financial interest in you being unhealthy?

I prefer Hornitos or el Jimador, but it's your nickel. You are gonna want some bite-size finger food to go with, so how 'bout some empenadas?

geofflambert · Post by **geofflambert** » Mon Aug 12, 2013 5:18 pm

Toasted ravioli with meat sauce for dipping or if you prefer marinara sauce (pictured)

Ooooh I say, that looks nice [:)]

Saute a little garlic and add to the meat sauce. Use Italian bread crumbs only. If you can't get that locally order some on the internet. Buy a case and give your friends some, it's good for lots of stuff. I prefer meat filled raviolis but the meat must be extra lean. It doesn't have to be veal but it's a bit better if it is. Fine grated parmesan is appropriate for the finish. Use olive oil! Cheese filled ravioli is popular also but around here it's likely to be provel cheese and I'm not wild about that. Make them yourself with Monterey Jack with chopped jalepenos.

Don't eat anything bar maybe a snack.

Drink though quite often, coffee, wine, beer, or single malt scotch.

Okay, okay, so Euros got some decent finger food, but Duude !!! ...

Empanadas carnitas, empanadas con pollo, empenadas de verduras, and all with some serious different salsas. Salsa verde, salsa blanco, salsa con limon y cilantro, salsa cazador con guacamole, salsa Norte (comparatively tastless stuff for the Nortes out there who wannabe), salsa Veracruzana, and yep there's some TexMex salsas in the box, too (I wouldn't do them, but then again, some would).

Anyway, there's some righteous food in the Sud, that's as good, and maybe better, than the Euro standards.

A lot of people find that cilantro tastes like soap. Lifebuoy actually. The perfect substitute is Italian parsley. Not that other parsley, Italian. Basil Napolitano never hurts.
