    On a relaxed Sunday, putting the woes of the world aside, I thought that
    Coins And Spirits go together. In honor of that and my recent normal Liver Tests, I propose a drink to my friends at Coin Talk. “ Here’s looking up your old Address”. My favorite toast….

    That’s a Good Bloody Mary with Garden Veggies. My little World to escape to.

    A Bloody Mary a day keeps a swollen liver at bay…….Words to live by, told to me by a old Doctor…

    You see more old drunks than you do Doctors…Something to think about.

    Nice train layout. I’m working on an n-gauge.

    I have N gauge too. Put it on folding banquet table, 4 x 8 piece of Styrene about 1 inch thick..The Pink stuff. Then use the water mixed fluffy stuff for scenery. I forget the name of it.

    Love me some Bloody Mary's!! Don't even need the alcohol, just the
    flavored, spiced up tomato juice is fine with me. When ever my wife
    and I go out of the area, I always ask for their local version of the drink. Yours with the added veggies looks great. The model railroad looks like fun.

    M.tooth, I like your Ptolemy Tet & model train setup :happy:. Is that a Ford Edsel in the 2nd to last photo :jawdrop:? Wow, a martini, bloody marry, & a beer looks like some serious drinking, enough to put me under the table :wacky:. I just finished a glass of Merlot with a large portion of pork fried rice (home-made with brown rice :D).

    Sounds like you're having a good Sunday! I've collected ancients for 30+ years and recently acquired my first ancient from Apullia. The same week I purchased an Italian red wine and to my surprise it was also from Apullia and very good I may add.
