UAB: Unsure about Alcohol Bottles

Really, we’re not alcoholics despite what these pictures might indicate.

I thought Sunday was as good of day as any other to talk about when the problems we are looking forward to fixing. At least a little.

We have many bottles of liquor. Many of them have been opened, and the lids have been lost to time. Having spent a little time bartending one summer, in college I acquired a collection of liquors for mixing drinks. I discarded many of the lids in favor of pouring spouts, which I’ve continued to do over the years.

I could be wrong, because I haven’t done all of my research, but I’m guessing there are probably rules against the government shipping opened (and unopened?) liquor bottles in our Unincluded: Alcohol Bottles (UAB) and/or Hauling Hindered Extralong (HHE).

But with only a couple of months until we leave, it looks as though we are going to be having a few cocktail parties to empty these bottles.










Starting at the top left, that is an image of the top of our refrigerator. To the right is the barboy, a wedding gift that pours the perfectly measured shot. On the bottom left and right are our ever ebbing and flowing collection of wine and beer.
