The only suggestion I can offer is this:

If you get stuffed olives of any sort, pay attention to what they're packed in. My wife got feta stuffed olives for her martinis one weekend and they were packed in *oil* instead of brine. Needless to say, these didn't work well in the drinks.

Not sure if it was Food Riot or HT, but these are the ones you want.

The question back to you is... Goose or Kettle?

if you order a martini at my house you're getting gin.

unless you ask for a vodka martini, in which case I'm sending you across the street to drink with the ladies. Kim makes a mean cosmo you're gonna wanna try too.

Yes! Now we're talking! The chief libationist is pleased!

You bring the gin, I'll make you a martini so cold it'll give you an ice cream headache!
