I Have Risen, Hallelujah
Well, a boring Easter Sunday seems to have kicked my enthusiasm for blogging up a few notches, so I'm going to post a few things before I crawl back into my dark hole and resume biting the heads off of chocolate bunnies.
First off, I've added permanent links to my sidebar for the Trader Vic's Cookbook and Havana Club Rum pages. If I get even more bored today, I may add a few new scans and recipes to the cookbook page.
I've also published the umpteenth revision of my history of Flipside Magazine. Since I originally posted it, I've heard from a lot of the folks mentioned in the narrative, who've offered me additional information and corrections, so in the interest of accuracy, I've revised the story accordingly.
Finally, I've pruned the blogroll a bit by removing a few sites that have gone inactive, and adding a couple of new ones in their place. I highly recommend The Planet of Sardines and The Groovy Age of Horror for their exemplary coverage of all things obscure and pop-culty.
Mas Adelante...

Speaking of Rum I have been trying to ride out this rather cold Easter with a bottle of Goslings
Bermuda Rum. I'm mixing it with ginger beer to make a Dark and Stormy.

I mixed up my first Rum drink in quite a while last night, using Trader Vic's Spiced Rum and Ron Matuselem Platino mixed with pineapple juice, lime, Cointreau, and Macadamia Nut liqueur.
Knocked me right out.

I like the sound of that recipe but I do not come across Trader Vic's rum very often I wonder if that is a west coast only rum?

My local supermarket here in Wisconsin carries a full line of Vic's rums and liqueurs.
