Ohhhh.....O.J and champagne.... A mimosa sounds good right about now (a Bellini would be good too) See Anita, it's your fault, you're the one who keeps bringing up alcohol!

What's really good is Rossini. Bellini is bubbly + peach puree(better w/ white peach!) whereas Rossini is bubbly + strawberry puree. My favourate at an Italian Restaurant called Santini's in London, oh I miss the restaurants there....

Yes, it's truly devine! I had a similar thing here at La Terrasse in Presidio for brunch, but they called it "Strawberry Mimosa"... That doesn't quite have the same ring as "Rossini".. And I bet that was "only" a sparkling wine as opposed to the real mackoy....
Aslan, my motto is "Why do it yourself when you can flex your plastic". Lot's of plastic flexing needed to fly the drinks over to SF from Santini's in London.... We'll think about it...
Is it me, or are cocktails turning up in more & more threads? Ever since a trip to Cuba I've been a big fan of a Mojito Diabilo (tequila, creme de cassis, lime wedges, fresh mint leaves, brown sugar & lemonade). My 'other' favourite is a Kir Royale
I miss those London resturants as well..... cocktails in the bar at the Oxo Tower was a favourite date
Did I hear London? Being European myself, this is my favourite town in Europe. I've been there about three times and loved those pubs and underground night clubs. Oh and I loved the crazy squirrels in the parks and Apple flavoured Tango...mmm do they still sell it?

See, Roxana is right, I was fishing for a bartender in the house and it appears we have some!!! Now we can start that drinks named after their dogs thread. Zoomie shot anyone?? I am just not that knowledgable about alcohol. Roxana? Chris? Leo's mum? And I have some deep suspicions about Jake's Dad.... We could call his "Jake's Early Morning," a remedy for hangovers. Or "Jake's Thrashing," a real killer like a Long Island Tea.
I just read all the posts about drinks... On my last trip to Mexico I tasted this drink called a "Miami Vice".. It was half Pena Collada and half Strawberry Daiquiri. YUMMY!! It was at an all inclusive resort so I had a LOT of them! They look pretty too, like a volcano!!
Here is where I started out, and where I ended up so far
I basically ended up non-photogenic with a funny look on my face and skinny, white legs. I know that ladies here are gonna LOVE me now though, cause I have a chow.

You can't tell what I look like because I have a hat on? The hat covers maybe 3% of my body. Why not ask me to take my shirt off? You are *Censored Word*!
Do you have a crush on me?
Maybe you think I am bald because of the hat? Either way, I am a *Censored Word* guy, great looking and modest about myself. I am a great human!
