Getting Ready for Tales of the Cocktail 2012 – Happy 10 Year Anniversary!

Ticket booked - yes! Hotel confirmed - yes! Bags packed - almost! Sunscreen, Sunglasses, Advil? yes! Water - will buy upon arrival. It's time to head out for the Annual Tales of the Cocktail in New Orleans.  Yes, July in New Orleans is extremely hot and humid and the week is intense as it is filled with back to back to back seminars, tastings, dinners and parties to celebrate cocktails. But, this is an annual voyage for my cocktail pal and me and 2012 marks our 4th sojourn to this amazing event, as well as the 10th Anniversary of Tales of the Cocktail.
