Alright, so I didn’t get the best night’s sleep, but I’m slowly recovering. I wanted to give y’all the rest of the story from yesterday. You’ll get the jalapeño shot later, but I did want to send a shout-out to the folks out at Ranch 616 in Austin, Texas for introducing this unique imbibation. (Woot! New word!) Anyone in the area should go check out the bar.
Moving right along, after this it was time for the Beefeater Welcome Reception. Dan, in all of his glory, neglected to secure a ticket, which meant I got to escort his lovely with Carine to the party. After last year’s soirée, I knew it was killing Dan that he couldn’t go, so I made sure to take pictures.
The bar set up at the Beefeater Reception.
Last year’s party was very good, so my expectations were high, and Desmond’s people did not disappoint. They even gave us all these really cool bowlers, which you can see if you look very closely at this picture:
The LOFT mistresses with a lovely model (who is a sophomore in college. I pay attention to these things...) Sorry you missed it, Dan.
I finished up at the reception and headed over to the Burlesque show, but it wasn’t for me and I split pretty quickly for the Mixo House with Craig of Dr. Bamboo. For those who aren’t here, this house is full of cocktail bloggers and has been well…sponsored. A screaming liver and too much good food prevented me from staying too long, but I hope to hop over there again before I leave NOLA.
I did run over to the TotC tweet-up arraigned by @livethelushlife before I collapsed for the night. I wish I could give some more info on the evening, but I was fried by then. I’m told it was a wonderful event, mostly by the hostess, but she’s got a trustworthy face, so I’ll recommend going to it again next year.
Gotta fly, more later.
