Mid-Day Cocktails

After enjoying our first lunch out of Christmas break 2014 at Violino, Ann wanted to have a cocktail. That's something we never get to do: go to a nice bar and have a decent drink. And there's something to be said for sitting, talking, and relaxing over a cocktail. So we stopped in at V2 where Ann had her usual, a dirty martini with blue cheese-stuffed olives. Me, I'm not a cocktail guy but I do like whisky, so I ordered an Aberlour malt.

Back at home, some rocket scientist decided that if a couple of martinis out was good, another monster one at home would be better still. If you see her, ask her how that worked out for her!
