Gin, Burgers and Zin

My loving spouse thoughtfully made me a dee-lightful cocktail...

...and thoroughly enjoyed his Beefeater 'tini, prior to his whipping up a classic Casa de Major Dad fiesta feast.

Tonight's menu includes a Caesar salad, lovelybloodypremium grass fed chuck lovingly transformed into "Major Dad's World Famous Cheeseburgers ®". He is making me a 'Black and Blue' ~ Prudhomme's 'Blackened Redfish' seasoning sprinkled on the outside and crumbled Maytag blue cheese added at the very last second while still on the grill. major dad is having Vermont Cheddar ~ a masterpiece of simplicity.

We'll be imbibing a lucious Bourassa Vineyards 2004 Odyssey³ Zin with our burgers and fries. After Bingley's magnificent gesture for major dad's retirement (a wine shipment of EPIC proportions), we found ourselves emotionally attached to the Terrazas Malbec. Imagine our delight as we stumbled over the Reserva today. It will be a divine accompaniment to the tiramisu and black raspberry/white chocolate cheesecake on tap for dessert.


Nums.

I am a lucky girl, n'est pas?

Gin, burgers, and zin. That sounds like one hell of a cocktail. How many did you have before it became delightful?

Hot diggety, that sounds great!

Sounds like the Major has invented a very interesting twist on this cocktail. Who needs consomme when you can use real beef, right?

Yum..Hendrick's Gin. It's like drinking fresh cucumbers in a glass, only except the cucumbers are in a liquid state and contain alcohol.
