Stinking Like Garlic

Steam Boat

I always forget when we go to Steamboat how much you stink like garlic. It was a bit cold but we don't mind all you can eat on a night like that.

 

We had sliced lamb, sliced beef, pork, fish balls and some greeneries. after about 2 hours of eating and 3 free ice creams( I need to start taking more pictures).  when we got home I got a Garlic headache.. or maybe it was from that glass of wine that was closer to half the bottle :P.

I am currently trying to redesign my image for my Blog. It is a lot harder than I thought. What sort of items do I want? Just coffee or with whisky. It has been a few years since I have let my creative side come out and I have really enjoyed doing this blog. I have found a new coffee maker I want, Is it my addiction or my passion.   http://www.kitchenwaredirect.com.au/Eva-Solo-Cafe-Solo-1L-Red Kim doesn't see it this way, oh well. I still have a few more things I need to post like my whisky rack BUT I need to paint it first, I really have way too much time at work.

Will post soon

Whisky Tasting

Whisky Tasting.

Last night my friend took me to my first whisky tasting as a birthday present. This was a different one to a normal whisky tasting as he said normally you sit around and the presenter will tell you about each whisky  and all the flavours. Last night you got a stamp card and could try 10 different single casks. Unfortunately they did forget to stamp them on the passport sometimes our 10 drink was closer to 14/15 drinks. 

    

 There was a mixture of them, one from Japan Kawasaki  and the rest from Scotland like Grants, Ardbeg.  It is always interesting trying so many types over a short period. We started at 4pm and finished at 8pm 

I ended up buying a bottle.

After the tasting we we thought we should go to some cocktail bars We went to Eau De Vie which is a 1950's style bar with the waiters in suits and the drinks are amazing (similar to the Rum house in New york).  I have no idea what I was drinking by that stage. Then we went to 1806 which has newer styles of cocktails.

After waking up this morning I needed my coffee.

 

We need to go buy coffee beans so we can make pour overs and my favorite Chemex.\

Kind Regards
