If you see our drink cabinet ( well you can't call a cabinet as all the drinks are kept inside a big shelf) one would think we are the biggest boosers, which is far from true, we do love a glass of wine on weekend ok couple of glasses of wine then :-) and now and then we make a cocktail, aslo we make always cocktails when we have friends over.

And one game we play with one of our good friends is they have to guess what all drinks are in the cocktail and it is so funny , they will be smelling, tasting just to find what all drinks are in the drink and by the time they almost got all the drinks in it , it will b efinished so mostly we go for second :-)

So we have so much drinks and liqueurs because every time we take the cocktail book we end up buying something new as we alwasy seems to need some new drink when we make a new one.

I am sending this to Aparna's monthly photography challenge this month, which is Less is more, So let's keep it simple

I do agree to it as if there is no props etc.... you really see the food than getting diverted to what all is surrounding the main ingridients.
But said that I do love my props, and I am coninuously buying props when ever I see something which I like.
There are shops in my town I go at least once a week, well just say more than once sometimes thrice, not tha tI buy every time props, I just go and check if they have something special and then sometimes I buy them if my budget allows me that month :-) ir I wait and buy another time .
