Beverages and Blades - Traditional of Course

Made some pickletini's...but I didn't get a pic. I will try and get a picture next time! I need a fancy martini glass...

You martini lovers gotta try the garlic stuffed olives--they're GREAT!
 
I prefer Noilly Prat, but couldn't find a small bottle.

So do I, but can't get ANY bottle here :thumbsdown: Noilly is a fine drink on its own too with crushed iced, lemon for an aperitif especially if a seafood/fish supper is on the cards :cool: Dolin is another nice very dry Frenchie but not available...:rolleyes:
 
I'm trying to remember what my phonetics professor, the great Ian Catford, said about "wee heavies". Was it that it's another name for porter?
 
I had a nip of that very tipple last night.

Not a bourbon guy myself (don't really go for any distilled spirits), but Calvin & Hobbes was probably my favorite comic strip of all time, and that black folder at the bottom of the picture issues a siren call to me! What IS that knife??
(I think "wee heavy" is another name for "Scotch Ale", with lots of malt, not many hops, and high ABV. Now that's a beverage I'm happy to quaff!)
