Yay Me. I just found out I made  the news. OK, not really the news but my picture did make it into  the lovely N. Jayne Seward's  post  about Fashion Night Out  for  Apparel News. Wahoo!!!  I was wearing  my vintage blue dress I got from Jet Rag with a black belt, silver necklace that my friend Casey told me to wear( thanks), and my make-up was flawless. I had to admit that I looked good and so did others as I got many complements thought out the night. And all that attention to detail paid off.
The only thing I would do different next time is to put that jacket down and wear better shoes. Yes, I know they are ugly, but my feet were hurting and I choose comfort over style. Oh well we all make some fashion faux pas sometimes and those shoes were mine

Introducing the Yolie Smash

So after many years of begging and pleading many bartenders around town and elsewhere, I finally got a drink created for me. David Kupchinsky a.k.a. Ol' Man Winter from The Eveleigh created the Yolie Smash for me on my birthday last night. Talk about an honor. It was the best gift a girl could get. OK, I might have asked him to make a drink named after me, but seeing that I never manage to get anyone to do one, I wasn't really expecting it.  Made of mezcal, Serrano pepper, heirloom tomatoes, cucumber, Pimm's and lime juice, it's a smokey, spicy drink ( just like me) and I love it. It taste so good that I had 5 last night and I'm still alive. I must get the recipe so I can make it myself at home and get it made at other bars. I'm so going to get the word out because everyone should be drinking the Yolie Smash.


Number of drinks consumed on my birthday- too many
Number of friends that were late- shit load of them
Number of bars I went to-4

Update.
I guess God was listening or read my blog because few days later, The Yolie Smash made it on the menu for the Eveleigh New Farmer Market Sundays. I can finally check off get a drink named after me on a menu off my list now.
