It’s the Mo-st wonderful time of the year
November is the best time of year what with the dark and cold nights giving you even more of an excuse to sit and drink bourbon all day long. But in recent years there has been an even better reason to get excited about November and that is for all the cool guys and dolls […]
Its like Tapas: But with Pies
Pies are great. Meat Pie. Apple Pie. Veggie Pie. Even the loveable Pork Pie be it the one filled with jelly and meat, the one that’s a hat, or the loveable rogue from Desmond’s Barber Shop.

I frickin’ love Kentucky. I cant even decide what my favourite part is – the great bourbon, the great beer, the food (oh my GOD the food) or the even better people. For those who don’t know Lexington is the capital of Kentucky and there are more barrels of Bourbon ageing here than people. And […]
