At last! After many years of searching, I have finally acquired a delightful bottle of Blanton’s Single Barrel Bourbon.

We are spending the weekend on Whidbey Island. We are at one of favorite places, the Star Store and I was browsing for some bourbon. A guy asked me if I was looking for something specific. I said jokingly, “Happen to have a bottle of Blanton’s?” He said, “yes I do! I just don’t display it. We get 2-3 every few months.” He pulled the bottle out, and the skies opened!

The lesson learned? Always ask.. you just never know!

A special cocktail to celebrate my daughter on her 21st Birthday!

This is a riff on the Jungle Bird cocktail. I wanted to make a special drink that had the taste of Hawaii mixed with a little Italian flare since Ruthie is headed to
Florence Italy in the Fall. The Campari and adding delightful POG to this classic cocktail hit the mark!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RUTHIE!! I wish I could be with you on the special day!
