Love Christmas and our favorite Christmas movie is A Christmas Carol. So we knew we had to see The Imbible “Christmas Carol Cocktails”

1122c

“The Imbible: Christmas Carol Cocktails,” was created by world-renown mixologist, spirits educator, and author Anthony Caporale, picks up the morning after Scrooge’s spectral visits, with our hero determined to celebrate Christmas by throwing a party “just like old Fezziwig!”

The first drink Scrooge, Barly, Ghost of Christmas Past, Brandy and Ghost of Christmas Present, Islay serve is Brandy Syllabub – Eggnog to you and me made with Nahmias et Fils Mahia Fig Brandy  from Christmas Past

1122c2

The darling cast take you through history of spirits and cocktails while singing in acapella all your favorite Christmas songs.

The next cocktail is from Christmas Present “Drambuie Mocha” a hot chocolate coffee cocktail.

Then we were visited by the Ghost of Christmas Future and he made   Scientific Caviar  “Molecular Candy Cane Martini” in a very groovy lab.

1122c5

We really loved this one!!  Besides the songs and story telling, the  fun is the inter-active audience participation in all of the cocktails preparation.  Keeps you smiling and laughing the whole show through.

Birthday at Il Bambino

This week my sister celebrated another birthday which gave us an opportunity to get together and share a meal.  My sister picked Il Bambino a great panini place with the sweetest  staff, walking around with “my boyfriend is a pig”. This place has BACON people!!

We started with some red wine, Baby String Bean Salad and Bambino Antipasti . We loved everything, fresh,  delicious and so flavorful and tasty. Then we each got a Panini our way. Merci and Marlene got the roasted chicken, I got the prosciutto with fig and my sister ordered the avocado. We cut them all up and shared and had a mini tasting party. Love when that happenes 🙂

1122a

The tradition is one dessert and we all share. Marlene helped my sister blow out the candle on the hugh Red Velvet Cupcake. Make a wish.

Our birthday wish for you is that you continue to love life and never stop dreaming. May beauty and happiness surround you, not only on your special day, but always. Happy Birthday!

What She Wore Wednesday – #Crewblazer #CAbi

Autumn is a perfect time to wear this charcoal Crew Blazer from CAbiOnLine. We have been enjoying some mild weather in New York and I was on my way to a Baby Shower.  It was a mild day and the air-conditioning was a little high, but I had no problem wearing this jacket all afternoon enjoying family and friends. This jacket would be perfect office wear too. Love the versability!
