More Martini Madness

Martini Madness continues, as photos pour in from around the country- well, Indianapolis and San Diego anyway. Few can resist the temptation...the call of the refreshing and sophisticated cocktail that embodies "hip and cool". Pictured here is The Duchess of Windsor, reincarnated. Doesn't she look elegant and regal? Kind of like a Duchess I think. The next photo below is a gentleman at work who I refer to as "Toddington", the martini mate of The Duchess. Along with me, Toddington was one-third of the now defunct morning ritual "Tea Toddling Trio" at the office (the other third moved to Indianapolis). So now, it's just the "Two For Tea Party" every morning at work (me and Toddington).

above: Toddington, so sophisticated, so debonair. How fortunate he is to have The Duchess as his martini mate.

above: BenWu, the former "Tea Toddling Trio" member who defected when he moved away to be with his ever-lovely wife. We miss Ben at the office. He sends this photo to join in the fun.
Well Happy Friday to you! I have a fun-filled busy social calendar ahead of me this weekend, so stay tuned! What are your weekend plans? Is a festive martini on the cards???
