2011 marked the year that TJ moved into our neighborhood, a few houses down from Rob and me. Well, we knew we had to act quickly for our Northwest house crawl.
This year was going to be a bit more intimate, and we decided to run a theme. So, we crawled just like Mad Men would do. We only crawled to our three houses, and each house had a Mad Men drink and appetizer. Our house consisted of chex mix, stuffed olives, and Maker’s Mark on ice.
And yes, that would carry out as a theme to the other houses. We ended at TJ’s where Tyler created a drink from the bartender gods where he used the smoke from a burning vanilla stick to hint the glasses. He then used a blue corn mash with some fruit concoction to make a very memorable drink.
Either way, it was a good time.
