Well, I suppose it's time to bring everyone up to date on my recent Tiki- and Cocktail-related acquisitions. At the top of the page is the Trader Vic's Honi Honi mug that my buddette Kathryn [Link] scored for me at this year's San Francisco Tiki Crawl. The mug is adorned with mildly risque scenes of Polynesian islanders doin' the pre-Nasty, so we've dubbed it the Tiki Pr0n Mug. Thanks, K!

On the bottom left is an early Christmas present for me that just arrived from Reggae Treats [Link] in Jamaica: a bottle of Wray & Nephew's Berry Hill Pimento Liqueur. In case you didn't know, pimentos are not those red things they stuff in the middle of olives, they're Allspice berries, and Pimento liqueur is a essential ingredient in several classic cocktails such as Don the Beachcomber's Nui Nui, and the Trader Vic's Navy Grog. As a matter of fact, I'm enjoying a delicious, fattening (and drunkening) Nui Nui even as I'm typing this. It's even good straight up.



Finally, you can see the meager fruits of my scouring more than 25 thrift and antique stores in the Denver and Colorado Springs area last month: one measly Tiki oil lamp. It was a lot of work finding that baby, but I must say it does cast a nice, warm glow down in the Hai'deaway during these cold, Midwestern winter evenings.



Alohaderci!
