    Red face I'm lost with the lingo...

    Ok, some of it I get. Dh: that's quite easy... maybe I've had one too many chocolate martinis tonight but I have no idea what everything else is.

    Could someone help me out?

    Some of those I haven't encountered yet, but thank you for clarifying.

    As for the martinis I'm going to have to get the recipe from my friend who was just over here earlier. My drink skills went as far as a "pocket digital bartender" that ran on a hearing aid battery. It's much more fun to invite people over to bartend for you. But I'll get the recipe, I promise.

    Ok cool thanks. I had a neighbor that made the best shots. Every weekend we were over there to sample his latest creation. I also am not that great at making drinks, i made a white russian waay to strong for me last night. I wish i was better at it. If you cant get the recipe its ok, it just sounded soo good.
