Butter dances. She has since the first second we got her. Mr. Kallisti made her this hoola skirt ages ago, and while Harry was over he snapped a picture of her doin' her thang.
So. Much. Love.
Harry came over Saturday for a much needed absinthe tasting & red meat eating fest! He showed up with a half dozen (at least) little neatly labeled samples of vintage absinthes for us to taste and rate. I was the silent partner, did all the typing, and added my 2 cents when I had it "slight latex after-taste like a flavored condom." Yeah, that was me... Harry and Mr. Kallisti are off the hook for that one :p And that was just the Serpis 65!
The vintage line-up:
- Pernod S. A. Tarragona C. 1935
- E. Albado, Habana C. 1935
- Edouard Pernod C. 1914
- Three different samples from a 1914 Pernod cache
- H. Bazinet C. 1910
In between all that we went to Skates on the Bay and totally feasted on the red meat. Mwowr. And shrimp. And lavender cocktails. A rare treat indeed. It is crab season here and I think we're going to make a trip up the coast (read: cheaper) for Valentines Day and whole crab and oysters. I'm thinking Tomales Bay.
