June 9, 2012 [b] - Cocktail Anyone?

Okay, all done with the Queen. On to celebrating the weekend with, what else? The cocktail.

Any great cocktail needs a great appetizer.

Any great appetizer needs a fancy toothpick.

Yes, this is headed somewhere.

Look at this lovely Cocktail Carpet and then scroll down to see how it is made.

Now do you see the point of the post? Quite clever, really.

Don't think I'd want to 'do it' on that carpet.

It's ugly, and stupid.

But thanks for your work with the image of the day, cali. No reflection on you... I just think the putz that wasted 4 hours making that shit should go back to his/her coloring books.

When you can walk across this carpet and leave no trace, you will have learned Grasshopper.

I bet it looks better having earned each of those picks by drinking the cocktail it came with.

You guys crack me up!

It reminds me of the Guatemalan alfombra carpets that they make at Easter time.

I am a big fan of the traditional, American frilly toothpick. Those things are just wrong. I mean, they might look nice in a drink or something, but not in a club sandwich. Too Disco.

For the record ... I like the "rug."
