We have had a really good schedule this week. We go paint after work for a couple hours every afternoon, and then run home. I mix the martinis while Pat gets dressed down, and then while they are chilling in the freezer, I run up to get dressed down and Pat fixes the garnish and appetizers.
Here's a good martini named for our favorite son-in law from Gretna Va.
Gretna Gimlet
3 parts Bombay Gin (not sapphire)
1 part Martini& Rossi Vermouth
Shake in a ice filled shaker, pour into glasses and set in Freezer until ready to imbibe.
Garnish with a nicely pickled OKRA pod....(this is the south y'all)
