I don't drink ... wine... and I know sweet F.A. about it.

But, I needed a relatively inexpensive red wine to make the gravy for my Prime Rib roast tomorrow night. So, I browsed around the liquor store and fell in love with this piratey-looking bottle:

Wonder if my dinner guest will try a glass with the roast?

Well I a little bit under the weather today. So my father-in-law made what he called a hot tottie, coffee and alcohol and honey.

Git up of your asses, set up those glasses I'm drinking this place dry.

Before bed, I had rum-laced eggnog. [but obviously the effects of my nightcap have worn off, or else I wouldn't be wide awake at this ungoddessly hour!]

And I used Appleton Estates Reserve rum in the eggnog. As I opened the bottle, I noticed it had a strong scent of butterscotch. Mmmmm!

Whooo Hester that sounds good!

Well being off fer once yesterday found me befriending some Cap'n n diet coke, a tot of Courvoussier and later a Bailey's rocks while I trimmed the tree.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help....

My wont? A delicious rip in time...

A Coke...trying to ease the queasiness of bad food from last night and to burn out the "pipes" with some good old fashioned phosphoric acid.

Due to unforseen circumstances, I'm going to be cooling my heels at home on New Year's Eve, instead of tripping the light fantastic under the fairy lights. Bugger!

So, now, as a consolation prize, I'm looking for the perfect champagne cocktail with which to ring in the New Year dulce domum.

Here's a good collection of champagne cocktail recipes that I've been browsing for ideas:

... Still haven't picked the winner yet, though.

Okay, I have a winner in my 2008 New Year's Eve chez moi Champagne Cocktail contest:

Champagne & Litchi juice

my hubby makes a champagne cocktail he calls a Chrispy of course he named it after himself, he's so humble, but to be honest it actually suits the drink its 60% Moet and 40% RedBull. It's actually a great New Years drink, you'll stay up till the ball drops.

what I'm drinking now, a tall glass of cold milk right before bed, old habits die hard.

I recently bought a bottle of rum, and it came with a little 'bonus' bottle of liqueur attached to it:

Sour Puss Apple

I've been wondering what the hell to do with it. So, I started Googling cocktails recipes, and I came up with this page of really cool Postmodern Martini recipes:

http://www.statlersonchurch.com/index.php?...6&Itemid=29

I'm thinking I'll go with the "Candy Apple", since I just happen to have a large bottle of Phillips Butter Ripple liqueur in the pantry. :rolleyes: Might swap Appleton Estate amber rum for the apple vodka, though. (And that makes sense, since that's what the mini Sour Puss bottle was originally attached to.)

I'll let you know how it turns out. I might even take pictures.
