This has been a long week what with the car woes and other annoying and expensive things happening. But today to celebrate installing memory in my laptop (sssh. to me it was a real feat because the electrical things have not been liking me lately) I am trying to see what drinks I can make out of my, er, rather extensive array of liquors and such.

I've been really wondering what to do with a bottle of Midori, because it's not a terribly useful drink to just chuck in things. However, a friend suggested mixing with equal parts fresh lemon juice and vodka, which makes a very lovely, refreshing beverage. Mind you, it looks like the sort of thing that a witch would hand you to wipe out your memories forever, but that only adds to the charm. I recommend it highly. Yum!

Tomorrow evening I have a few friends coming over to try and drink some more of the stuff because it can't be shipped to Canada (cruel, cruel country!). If anybody has any suggestions on how to make Drambuie palatable beyond mixing it with perfectly good and innocent whisky I would be grateful.

And if you're ever in Los Angeles this place makes the most amazing cocktails I've ever imbibed: http://www.thehungrycat.com/. They don't make a massive range but everything I've drunk there has been wonderful. Also, they have *amazing* cheese.

I like cheese.


ETA: I am currently watching a Korean film (Seducing Mr. Perfect) with an actor I have never seen before by the name of Daniel Henney. It shouldn't be possible for people to be as goodlooking as him. Seriously, he's like some perfect genetic freak he is so handsome. This picspam, marvellous though it is, still doesn't quite get across how, well, wow, he is on screen.

ETA 2: Is it a bad or a good sign when you watch so many Korean dramas that you start understanding simple conversations in the language?

Interesting. I've heard of wine and cheese, but cocktails and cheese? No so much.

CHEESE GOES WITH EVERYTHING. Especially after a few drinks... :)

Easy there. I'm not knocking it, I'm just saying I've never tried it. Guess I'll have to give it a whirl.

Hee! Sorry to be so protective of the cheese consumption. Blue cheese and any grapefruit cocktail is quite amazing. Really!
