Saturday night, after seeing Zumanity, [livejournal.com profile] kittenpants and I went to Nine Fine Irishmen, which is an Irish pub in New York New York. They had a pretty solid pub band, extremely tasty food, and cute waitresses in itty-bitty tartan mini-skirts. Good times all around.

And we were in a drinking sort of town, so we were drinking. When the waitress came round for drinks orders, [livejournal.com profile] kittenpants orders a martini cocktail (served in a martini glass) that is composed of Bailey's, Kahlua, vanilla vodka, and butterscotch schnapps. I have noticed that they also have a pretty solid selection of Irish whiskeys (and no whiskys at all, so bonus points for that), and so I order a Black Bush, neat. As the waitress is walking away, [livejournal.com profile] kittenpants says, "Well, now she knows who's the butch and who's the femme in this arrangement..."

What makes this particularly funny is that on Saturday night, two time zones east of us, [livejournal.com profile] triadruid, allegedly the most masculine of our household, was in another Irish pub, drinking practically the same girly-girl drink as [livejournal.com profile] kittenpants. I love that.

And it probably says something about me that I'd have gone for the girly-girl drink as well. Not sure what, though. =)

Welcome back! Glad you two had a good time!

I'll certainly not attempt to assign any meaning to it for you ;)
And thank you for the good thoughts -- we're happy to be back.

(Also, have you sent [livejournal.com profile] kittenpants your flight info yet? She's practically expiring over the lack of it.)

GIGGLE!!!!

Omg, that martini sounds lovely though- what's it called?

I think they were calling it a Michael Collins, who was (I think) one of the pub's namesake Fine Irishmen. However, there is also an Irish whiskey called after him, so you might be a little wary ordering such a thing. :)

Whoops. The cut and paste is full of fail. Add end parenthesis.

The version at O'Malley's was called a "Bailey's Comet", which was very funny at the time, and continues to be quite funny now.

Same drink, sans butterschnapps and with regular vodka, over ice. Tastes like chocolate milk!
