Drinks!

I turned 23 this weekend and it was wonderful. When I got back to Chicago, my mom handed me a big Crate & Barrel box holding 4 martini glasses, a nice shaker, olives, an olive pick and of course, some vodka. I've decided it is now necessary for me to master the art of a martini and have been browsing the interwebs for books that could help.  Look at these pretty ones I've come across:

And of course they all have nice inside pages. I love that so many illustrations are involved instead of just ingredient/fixed drink photos.
