The Mint Julep

Some people just love their work. While its hard to hide incompetence, a professional can never hide his light under a barrel.

Watch this pro, the barman at the NOLA Ritz Carlton at work. Being Cinco De Mayo the video has some excellent tips to improve your Mojito, as well.

Did you enjoy a julep as you watched the running of the Derby Saturday? Any excuse to break out a new hat and spectator pumps.

Saturday was cocoa and galoshes weather around here. Our ususal Derby crowd had scattered to the 4 winds so we were left at home attempting to keep warm.

There's an indestructable mint bush that grows between our house and the driveway. If it ever gets warm around here, I gotta get me some Bourbon, cigars, and a couple of other dudes willing to leave they're ladies fo an afternoon to listen to baseball on a.m. radio only to return home all smelly and a little sauced.

Ah, the simple pleasures...
