Ritual: Cocktails

When Boyfriend comes home from work, one of the things he likes to do - not every night, but from time to time - is to mix himself a classic cocktail.

Over the past several years, your MatchGirl has acquired a fun bunch of bar paraphernalia and we have a small bar set up in a tiny alcove in the corner of our living room. It's kind of old school and charming to mix up a classic drink and sip it as we chat about our days.



Like having dinner together nearly every evening, this is a chance for us to stay in touch with each other, and our relationship, as we power through the rest of the craziness of life.
