Our liquor cabinet is bursting -and- we're about to pack up 90% of our kitchen/dining stuff for the remodel. No more new liquor (beyond replacement bottles of the basics) until Spring '07. Ha! Let's see how long that lasts. Tempt me not!! Our liquor cabinet is bursting -and- we’re about to pack up 90% of our kitchen/dining stuff for the remodel.

If you're looking to spend some money, the rest of the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection is also out and about, including a new unfiltered, cask strength rye.

Remind me next time I see you to give you a bottle of the cherries we use. They're maraska cherries that we get at PFI. Yum.

Figures. Did I mention that I was lit up like a freight train? Nevertheless, I take heart in the fact that the Manhattan recipe from the venerable "Burke's Complete Cocktail and Tastybite Recipes" (1936), as quoted on cocktail.com and elsewhere, calls for "rye or Irish whiskey". I'll be making my next Manhattan with Jameson's and I'll let you know how it goes. Bushmills. Figures. Did I mention that I was lit up like a freight train?
