It started a very long time ago, in high school one year on the last day of school someone had a bottle of gin. I would guess it was stolen from a parent and was probably junk ? They passed the bottle around and everyone took a shot, like a dummy I took a big shot, it was terrible, really bad and i never forgot it. Now i realize at 18 years old and stupid, and drinking something like gin from a bottle is not really a good way to understand the flavor to judge it for the next 41 years. But that taste must have made a big impression on me, I have tried many things since but never gin. I have only had two different kinds of martinis, a few chocolate martinis at different times with dinner on ships, and Carl's martinis in Hope. That's my only experience with martinis. As i remember my Gin drinkin way back in my "Sampling" days, someone bought me a Tangeray. I was NOT ready for the taste, some people think this stuff is the cats meow, me, the smell makes me wretch. 4 Quote

That's true, but it was really good. when Carl asked me if I wanted to try one while we were in hope I explained to him my only martini experiences, chocolate. He then knew I had never really tried a martini and went to work, I was quite shocked at the taste. Watching this you think OK if you only mix alcohol and shake it up it has got to be strong, as far as taste, it's taste like water with a slight flavor, but as far as strength it's what you watched go in it, they could be dangerous. But I do like the thousands of tiny ice pieces, they lasted to the last drop, it's really is a good drink. 5 Quote

I thought it was maby my bookmarked link but no after a few tries it worked. I have no idea, it's above my pay grade, which fortunately covers everything, i'm barely expected to pay attention, hardly even do that. 5 Quote

I went to another doctor today, she agreed with my niece, go see a cardiologist and have an "event monitor" hooked up. I think it's a little sad that I have more confidence in a 36 year old nurse than most of the doctors I've seen. She does have a masters degree and just added a business degree. Smart girl. 6 Quote

Tarheel Posted January 17, 2017 Author Posted January 17, 2017 Talking Gin huh? Was in a barber shop 20 years ago reading a Playboy where the discussion was Martinis. The Martini du jour was Bombay, stirred with vermouth, served at 38 degrees, with a twist of lemon. Had to try it....did...went back to Vodka. Prednisone and cough syrup kicking in. Feeling 82%. Mark should be getting his goobers very soon. Eat the ghost pepper chocolate nuts with caution. Planning a small party at a wing place for the presidential inauguration Friday. Mostly my high school breakfast club gang. Anyone in the neighborhood please stop by. 6 Quote

Tarheel Posted January 17, 2017 Author Posted January 17, 2017 Ordered a bunch of "super foods" from Amazon. Making smoothies to see if I gain energy this year.
