My dad liked martinis and tended to have one or two every day around 6:00 p.m. just before dinner.

I never much cared for them but I liked eating an olive that had been in a martini. Whenever my dad was coming to visit, I always made sure I had plenty of gin, vermouth and a jar of olives on hand.

Great memories! My Dad liked beer - nothing fancy.

We both grew up in Milwaukee and all of my Uncles were Cops, Firemen or worked for Miller Brewing.

Now THOSE guys could DRINK! Like, at a professional level! ;)
