3. Looks great!
Is that a bag of pistachios or peanuts?

The only thing I could raise both eyebrows at is the 'Jägermeister.' Ewwww ...

Happy Holidays to you and yours! :hug:

23. He certainly was!
We did get to celebrate our good fortune. Not just material things of course - we are fortunate in many ways, and it was good to have some time to ourselves and with our families.

38. Nice!
I don't drink vodka though, owing to bad experiences when younger. Maybe I should try better stuff - what I had was rotgut.

40. Vodka is my mainstay....
Just about every mixed drink in my approved list is vodka-based.

Ketel One and Grey Goose are good for making cocktails or just over rocks with a twist of lime (maybe a splash of tonic). I'll use Absolut, Skyy, Svedka, Fris, or Six only for cocktails (they're just not quite good enough to drink straight, in my opinion). Taaka, Popov, Smirnoff, etc... are used strictly as solvents, or in rare occaisions for Jello shots.

My current favorite for drinking straight is Ciroc- a French Vodka made from grapes. It has a very slight sweet taste to it, and it's good for sipping!
