Yes, a Sidecar is a type of Sour, but a Sour is usually served in a Rocks glass and garnished with a cherry, while a Sidecar is properly served in a sugar-rimmed Martini glass (and contains triple sec), as I recall from my relief bar-tending days. Face it; there are many cocktails that are basically the same except for their presentation and a single ingredient. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many differently named cocktails.
Hey, a new topic…booze.
I was tasting with my mental palate, Ghost. I remembered what the pan sauce tasted like (made by roasting a chicken stuffed with diced celery, carrots, and onions and sliced lemons; basting with butter and lemon juice and chicken stock, I thought of adding tomatoes and my mind went “ew!” but I might try tomatoes next time if I just poach a chicken or use a rotisserie bird from the deli (lemon pepper only).
Charlotte, I will definitely try the sweet red pepper next time!

If you have not yet read it, I can highly recommend “A Brief History of God.”
Superb book, for believers and non-believers alike.
I have other pressing commitments, incl. a presentation this summer on implications of recent science for theology. I thought I’d heard of the book, but a search didn’t yield that exact title. Did you mean ‘God, a Brief History’ by John Bowker? emb
Less reverent, and incorporating several world religions – “Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ’s Childhood Pal” by Christopher Moore
Debbe 😉 Pour vous, ma cheri…

Good morning Villagers……
I see one poster gets bored easily 🙂
GR 😉 speak English, now I have to look up pour (which I am, but rich with emotions), but what is vous? Or did you mean to says poor yous “) Ah, loved the video will come home and play it louder then…..
Did someone mention booze as a new subject? I use to be a bartender in my way younger days in Homestead FL….just one of my many travel ventures…..oh, the stories I could tell….but mass Alzheimer’s has blocked some of my memories…..or was it a plague….or is it all those U tube videos….I don’t know….in the words of Bugs Bunny…”I don’t ask questions, I just have fun”.
Jean…yes, RDJ is a good one to look at in the video. I enjoy watching his Sherlock Holmes movies. I love his eccentric dress style at, outlandish bow ties and sneakers…only he could pull that off.
Jerry….you still with us? Pray so.
later…….
ya’ll have a blessed day
For those who are easily bored:

Partially bad memory on my part – it’s been a couple of decades since I read it.
The title is “A History of God,” by Karen Armstrong.
Here’s the url:

Debbe, I don’t know why, but I haven’t watched RDJ’s Sherlock. I have really enjoyed him as Tony Stark in the Iron Man and Avenger movies, though.
Lily, don’t let Ghost pick on you. My daughter doesn’t like Rotel, either.
Still here Debbe in spite of continuous non-stop lightning and heavy rain and winds all night long. Many roads closed we hear although we don’t plan on going anywhere. We hear that there were deaths in the area.
when we melt the Velveeta with the Rotel for nachos, it really gets my nose running, but I still love it. There used to be just one Rotel period, then they came out with different flavors, like Mexican. I thought Mexican was what it was to begin with.
I had to google Rotel because I had no idea what you guys were talking about. Now I see … hot chili peppers are just too powerful for me so I don’t use them. The stuff looks good if you are accustomed to the heat.
