Before we begin, don't worry. This "bar" isn't going anywhere. This is a tribute of sorts to a great bar that is no longer. Up until late last month, there was a bar in the Seaport area of Boston that was called Drink. What made it great was that it
It's no secret here that I am an avid Jimmy Buffett fan. Even more so now that I can listen to his album Volcano on my turntable I got up and running last year. On that album is one of my favorite songs: Boat Drinks. I love the theme of
Happy Friday! This week was certainly different for me. It was the first week back at work after having 20 weeks of paternity leave. It's been an adjustment for sure, but the fact I had that much time is almost unheard of, so I made sure to take advantage of
Help and welcome to 2024. Hopefully your holidays were relatively drama and conflict free. Thankfully mine were, and as much as I like the holiday season, by the 4th iteration of Christmas my family had to attend, we were pretty done with running around. Such tiredness is usually cured with
Happy Friday! Hopefully this week hasn't dragged on too long for you. I'm in the last weeks of parental leave and I already am dreading going back to the hundreds of unread emails and other white collar work horrors await me upon my return.
Ignoring that nonsense, I've had a productive
Happy Friday! This post kind of snuck up on me to be honest. The family has done a lot of travel over the past few weeks. Hawaii and California a couple weeks ago and last week into this week was a trip to Maine and down to the Cape. All
Happy Friday! This week I'm happy to finally make a drink I've had on my list to make for a long time: a Paper Plane! I was in New Hampshire earlier this week and I stopped into the liquor store to re-fill some bar essentials since New Hampshire is the
Happy December, and welcome to the "garbage time" portion of 2023. To me Thanksgiving is like the two minute warning in a blowout game. It's a formality marking the end of the game, but we're all forced to finish out the string.
Anyway, On return from my vacation to Honolulu (of
Oh man did that last 10 days fly by. Thanks Balls for filling in while I was in Hawaii drinking Mai Tai's like it was my job. Alas, all good vacations must come to an end, and after a brief stop in LA on the way back, I am back
Hello and happy Friday once again. I've been wanting to use the newly acquired Applejack, and went looking for something unique and creative I could use it in. That didn't take very long, as I remembered the Please Don't Tell book has more than a few recipes that require Applejack.The
When the hell did Autumn get switched on? Just last week it was 80 degrees and now it's (literally) freezing outside. I sure as shit didn't ask for this rapid seasonal transition, but such is the the way it is. Given that it's now officially sweater weather, I couldn't pass
Happy false Fall! At least up in my neck of the woods it is. We're looking at an 80 degree couple of days the weekend before Halloween because climate change obviously isn't real.
Anyway, might as well enjoy the second round of summer with a tropical drink right? Exactly. Plus the
