Alright, we know my love of What’s Gaby Cooking – I don’t try to hide it. And pretty much, whatever recipe she puts out there, I am usually up to try.

I feel like Greg and I have become adult-adults lately. After my experimentation with the Whiskey Sours, we have found a liking for a little after dinner drink some nights. So, I recently took stock of the booze I had on hand and started researching what I could make with what I had on hand. … More Happy Hour: White Russians
