Happy New Year!
May 2013 treat us all well.
Yes, I finally changed the look of my blog. It has been a few years and I felt that with this new year, maybe a change was in order. Let me know if you have serious problems with it.
Now, on to my post for today.
Since the Tiki Ti opens for New Year's Eve, I thought I would honor that fact with a post that happened during the Holiday Season...the week before Christmas, to be exact.
The Tiki Ti bar does a Colonial American tradition, it serves Hot Buttered Rum.
I was reading up on the tradition HERE.
The recipe that the Tiki Ti uses, is their secret alone, of course.
All I can tell you is that they definitely had a container with the butter mixture, which he took two spoons of. He added the hot water and the rum and topped it with whipped cream.
It was truly delicious and I thanked my son for coming along with me to keep me company. There is nothing quite as bad as drinking alone.
Since the day we came to the Tiki was a Wednesday, my son decided to try Ray's Mistake.
A signature drink that is on special on Wednesday.
Only $6, til the toast to Ray at 9PM. It comes in a very slim glass, but it carries quite a punch.
The third photo gives you just a quick look at the atmosphere of the Tiki. Stuff hanging all over the place.
It is also is very tiny. The bar and about 7 tables for guests and that is it.
The place was packed and we considered ourselves quite lucky to snag the last table, by the door.
Maybe I have started a new tradition. :-)
It is very nice, my only problem was being able to leave a comment, but once I got out then got back in, I got the comment part. It is interesting, if nothing else. I love it.
ReplyDeleteLooks good. As long as Barney's still there, I'm happy! :-)
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! Best wishes to the Angels for 2013!
Thanks to you both. Even though technically there is a mountain top back there, I like the water drops. I felt it went with the spirit of this blog and how it has evolved...eg: Water Post Mondays.
ReplyDeleteDim Skip: I looked at Barney and I thought about moving him and I decided that he is so much a part of my blog. So he stays and again, he works with the water post Monday theme. I love him and thank you so much for introducing us. :-)
BTW: As I was asking advice from my husband, he decided he liked a different set up and so now his is changed, too. You can see his on the blogs I read, over on the "right" side of my blog.
