Cocktail Recipes

Goddess of Nuts (PBUH) asked:


I drink about 2 glasses of red wine each week night with dinner. No other cocktails, spirits or blah blah blah. Then on weekends I have off, I tend to have about the norm (2 glasses of wine) and either 2 extra glasses or a few brews with hubby (he’s a brew man) and call it quits. Is this bad? My prudish aunt says I am a bad influence for kids. But…we pay all our bills, have a nice home, we both work good jobs, and we never get drunk. Do I need to start AA or something?
Buster B…a spectacular red I had lately was Beringer Knights valley (2000) cabernet sauvignon. Mellow, smooth as silk (at room temp) and full bodied. Nice price at about 14 bucks. It’s worth a try.

I haven’t been to a wedding since I was a kid, so I’m unsure what to wear. I have a lot of cocktail dresses, but I’m not sure if they are appropriate. I’m 23, medium build and height.

It’s a midday Sunday wedding on a Royal Carribean ship. Not sure if it will be indoor or part outdoors. The reception will also be on the ship. I expect the weather will be around 70 degrees and sunny.

Links with pictures would be awesome! However, any advise will do.

Ok, we were at a relative’s Christmas party this afternoon and of course my uncle, who’s the world’s biggest jackass, has to be invited to spread his usual lame hijinks. Alright, so the adults were having cocktails and talking while the kids opened their presents. Nothing weird there, right? Then my 3 year old daughter opens his present to her - A LARGE CAN OF LEAD PAINT. what the hell?!?! He starts to laugh like a hysterical hyena as everyone else is just really silent and not knowing what to do. my daughter burst into tears and ran out of the room when my wife took it away and explained that it wasn’t a big bucket of fingerpaint (WHICH SHE LOVES). It took forever for her to calm down. I am so angry
This isn’t the first time he’s done this. at my son’s birthday he gave him a pair of adult XXL pants. He thought it was the funniest thing ever.

My husband and I are having a black and white cocktail night at our house for about 20 of our close friends. I’m making invitations just for the fun of it. One thing, though, we don’t want any kids around. How should I word it on the invite without hurting anyone’s feelings? I was thinking something like: Find a sitter for your little ones and come join us for a Black and White cocktail night…etc, etc. But idk…does that sound kind of rude? Any ideas?
I thought about adult party too…BUT…I don’t want anyone to think it’s the other kind of adult party if you know what I mean…so no on that one.

The song plays at the fight scene at the fort when one of the little kids starts throwing molotov cocktails at the fort. I am sorry I can’t describe it any further.

I mean SIMPLE. Very few ingerdients, simple preperstion,something the kids can help with too.

Here are a couple of my favs:
Celery stuffed with cream cheese & shreddedcarrot. Or Cream cheese & diced ham.

Tiny cocktail bread with cashew butter & a slice of a strawberry.

Veggie dip: low fat sour cream, a pinch of salt, and a packet of Good Seasons Dressing mix. With baby carrots & pretzles.

Izzy asked:


My friend’s cousin had a baby 3 months ago. The poor, poor child is named Tia Maria. Both names are quite nice on there own…but together? Woah, no. Why would these people name their poor kid after a cocktail?

What do you think of this?
My friend said perhaps it’s what they were drinking before she was concieved!!

Does make me question it…
Phat T - You have a point there.

For our reception they serve coffee with the meal, enough for everyone to have a cup. But how much more will we need for after the meal with cake? I’m assuming only about half the people will really drink coffee after the meal, the rest will probably have cocktails…and we have around 10 kids coming but its at the end of June…so hot out. They sell coffee and punch by the gallon…16 cups a gallon. I have no clue!
