We had Mike and Charisse over for dinner this past Saturday. For cocktail hour Mike had his usually vodka martini (I used Shaker's vodka) and I had my usual gin martini. Now, Mike likes his martinis dirty with olives and lots of olive juice. I was sure I had olives on hand but I didn't (D'oh!). Instead we substituted a lime wedge at Mike's suggestion. It worked! I had a lime wedge with my Tanqueray martini as well. Charisse drank Amstel Light beer and Dale didn't drink as he's been having some trouble with headaches lately. Mike picked out some Billie Holiday for music. When that was finished playing he picked Cocktail Mix Vol. 2: Martini Madness from the Cocktail Mix collection.
