		<title>Bailey&#8217;s Irish Cream</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Lately we&#8217;ve been enjoying Bailey&#8217;s Irish Cream with a Hint of Mint. Very tasty. Like mint chocolate chip ice cream. Just be careful how much you drink.      ]]></description>

		<title>Inniskillin Icewine</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Tonight we opened a half-bottle of Inniskillin&#8217;s superb Icewine. It&#8217;s a 2006 Vidal. Very sweet and complex, yet smooth as silk. Excellent dessert wine.]]></description>

		<title>Margaritas with Jose Cuervo Citrico</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Tonight it was margaritas made with Jose Cuervo Citrico. I usually shy away from buying any high priced brand if I&#8217;m going to be making a mixed drink, but the JC Citrico was on sale for a really good price, so I gave it a shot. It does make a really smooth &#8216;rita with a little [...]]]></description>

		<title>Back to the Blog</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After a year and a half away, I&#8217;m back at it. I&#8217;ve decided  to take this blog in a slightly different direction. I&#8217;ll be talking about all drink recipes and reviewing some wines and beers. No sense painting with just one brush, eh? Tonight I made up some White Sangria. It&#8217;s a recipe told to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Grey Goose Vodka</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve finally gotten back to vodka. Aside from a few martinis while dining out, I&#8217;ve been drinking mostly wine or dark beer lately. But this past weekend I stopped in to Friar Tuck&#8217;s to grab some wine and picked up a bottle of Grey Goose vodka. Grey Goose is French vodka distilled from wheat and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Off track again.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ok, so maybe I should be back to martinis by now, but saw this Winterfest beer at Trader Joe&#8217;s and had to try it. I love dark beer and this is a true double bock. Very good indeed. Dark and fairly bitter, but surprisingly not too heavy. I had one with a cheeseburger for lunch [...]]]></description>

		<title>Costco and vodka</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While visiting Costco in Indianapolis today, I got the bright idea to check out their vodka prices, with the thought that I&#8217;d bring home a bottle or two. The good news is, top shelf vodka and gin are pretty darn cheap at Costco. The bads news is that they only sell 1.75l bottles. And they&#8217;re [...]]]></description>

		<title>Still alive and kickin&#8217;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sorry I haven&#8217;t posted in a while. I&#8217;ve been finishing the vodkas I had and also opting for Yellowtail Merlot on some weekends. I think henceforth I&#8217;ll buy pint bottles if they&#8217;re available so I can try more brands without filling up my freezer and cupboards. A couple of months ago we were in Schaumburg outside [...]]]></description>

		<title>Another departure from the theme.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After a walk tonite I was really in the mood for a tall, cold drink. I&#8217;ve always liked vodka tonics, so at the risk of offending any martini purist who may stumble upon this site, I decided to see if top shelf vodka (Level) can really make a difference in a mixed drink. The first thing I&#8217;ve noticed [...]]]></description>

		<title>Want some cheese with that wine?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I decided to take the weekend off and revert to an old favorite, Yellow Tail Merlot. I&#8217;ve tried pricier wines, but I always come back to Yellow Tail. I just like it best. After being a German white wine snob for decades, I stumbled upon Merlot, and specifically, Yellow Tail Merlot, and have never looked [...]]]></description>
