Cocktail Shakers Ready ~ Mad Men Season Premier

We are getting our cocktail shakers ready for Sunday night's season premier of

Mad Men.  I even made an avatar of me (courtesy of AMC) so that I 

can be with the guys of Sterling, Cooper, Draper and Pryce.

Love that show.  Although I am a professional interior designer, I have also

worked at a couple of advertising agencies in both New York and Houston.

Let me tell you, it's a wild and crazy business.  One guy wanted a job

at an ad agency in Houston.  He wrapped his resume around a rock and

threw it through the agency's window.  He got the job because of his

ingenuity, but the cost of the window came out of his paycheck.  

As fun and creative as the ad world is, you better be able to soar like an

eagle to keep up.  Sixteen hour days are not uncommon.  No wonder the guys

at Sterling, Cooper, Draper and Pryce need a cocktail.

So we will be glued to the television on Sunday night.  I will be watching to 

see what everyone is wearing.  I love the fashion on that show!

Oh ~ and the music too.  In case you have not noticed (perhaps you always

have the sound turned down on your computer) I am a huge music lover.

All kinds ~ jazz, pop, classical, even some country.  Just can't live without it.

This was my mother-in-law's favorite cocktail recipe book.  It came from the

Mad Men era.  Oh and these cute little cocktail napkins too.

I did some research about popular appetizers from the 1960's.  Oysters Rockefeller,

Chex Mix and of course, deviled eggs.  

So before the season premier begins, let's go visit ~

No Bentley ~ I don't think you should have oysters, but you can have a

deviled egg!
