Rum, Straight

Cigar this afternoon.

And some straight rum for happy hour. This is Plantation. 

It's Been Awhile

Saturday, April 2, 2022

The last couple years have been challenging to say the least and the last month has been a whirlwind. Three weeks of being on strike followed by one week back in school has been rewarding but exhausting. Finally on spring break and celebrated with a mini Macanudo this afternoon. 

We had Warren over for dinner tonight. He brought tacos and we watched Who Slew Auntie Roo with Shelley Winters which was a TRIP.

Made some Joey's Orange Speedos for Warren and myself. It's been ages and they turned out quite well. Warren really loves 'em. 

Today was the first day of Spring Break 2022 and I'm so looking forward to resting. 

We'll be headed to Arizona soon to visit Brenda, Irv, Dianne, and John. Looking forward to some tropical cocktails. 

Feeling' Fall - Cigars, Cocktails, Playlists

Sunday, September 22, 2019

Fall is on the way. Astrological fall starts tomorrow but today we just came off a run of hot, sticky July-like weather. Today however was mid-60s, cloudy, and rainy in the afternoon. I set up for a cigar in the garage and lit up after making a hula-hula cocktail. I also worked on one of my tiki themed playlists.

Cigar Time

The glorious weather of MEA weekend continues! Although a little cooler today, it was still pleasant enough to sit outside with a cigar in the backyard. The tiki pictured was a bargain I picked up at Bachman's yesterday.

Shag knows a thing or two about tiki. Enjoying his recent book Shag: The collected works. 

Psycho Suzy's - Perfecto

Friday, January 27, 2017

A good time was had by all tonight. I only wish we could have stopped in to see the house band Exotica-Go-Go. Sadly, the upstairs lounge where they play was closed for a private event.

In other news, three people tonight complimented my Schott Perfecto Biker Jacket. 

Tiki Tuesday

Mai Kai

Today I finished Mai-Kai: History and Mystery of The Iconic Tiki Restaurant by Tim "Swanky" Glazner. Well worth the read. 

Cigar Time

Sunday, October 23, 2016

The weather isn't very "tiki-like" although it's never to cold to use a tiki mug or, in this case, a cat-tiki mug. Not filled with a tiki drink unless a grapefruit juice with vodka qualifies as that.

According to the box, this one's name is Ruby.
