On Sunday a fabulous new cocktail recipe arrived from my lovely chum in Athens, Georgia – fellow film archivist Margie Clark. It was superb timing as Mr R was hot footing it over for Vincent Price Toad in the Hole after doing his radio show so I rustled up a pair of these to whet the appetite upon his arrival.
Margie found the recipe here – Forgotten Bookmarks – which is an absolutely fantastic website which I heartily recommend. It was a double joy to get this link as I remember looking at that website many moons ago and then couldn’t remember what it was called. Many a happy moment has been spent perusing the lovely things discovered that have been tucked into second hand books and forgotten about….
On further research Margie found the recipe here too – Charlie Chaplin Cocktail – which seems as though it might be truer to the original as the bookmark version seems to have been passed on by Art Rose’s Father-in-Law whoever he might be…
Will report on the Toad in the Hole and the rest of Vincent’s birthday celebration dishes when I have a moment. Life is super busy but all in the very best ways…
