Friday Night Vodka Buzz. Ask me anything.

[Aristus]

Two shots to get the party started. Now, a Saketini. A Martini made with sake, plus gin, and a dribble of dry vermouth. Yummy!

I’ve been drinking sake wrong all these years. I ordered it warmed in restaurants. I didn’t know it could be served chilled. It’s great. Nice and plummy.

Looking forward to a relaxing weekend.

I love you all…

4. Marthe,

you're sleep-writing! It's like sleepwalking, but less vigorous.

Do an hour of reading. Then lights out.

Looking forward to it.

3. Never going to be a sake fan

But Japanese sweet plum wine has a nostalgic place in my heart.

Do you listen to music when you are partying? If so, whose?

[Aristus]

7. Concrete Blonde, Metallica, Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers,

Fastball, Evanescence, David Bowie, etc.

5. Oh, for

Christ's sake!

Is that pronounced differently?



Have a wonderful night, Aristus!

[Aristus]

8. Christ's sake is what Christians drink in Japan.

I like sake both hot and cold.
