Food & Drink
I'm Chris - or Christopher - or Mr. Dean - or Master Christopher - or just plain Sir. I'm a self-professed foodie. I love to cook and I take great pleasure in all things edible. My husband and I are relatively new to Portland, Oregon and are enjoying our culinary explorations of the area!

Celebratory Cocktail: Cherry Smack
In addition to the watermelon, I also juiced about 2 pounds of cherries. Note to self - never again until you buy a damn cherry pitter! I sliced each cherry in half, and pried out the pit with my fingers. It took forever! YET - the juice was delicious. And I had inspiration from some place deep in my soul...a voice kept saying "whiskey, whiskey"...so I listened. And the created drink officially became my celebratory drink for the end of graduate school, and I call it a Cherry Smack! And keith snapped a photo of me enjoying my Cherry Smack while sitting in the window. :)
Cherry Smack
3 parts Makers Mark Whisky
2 parts fresh Cherry juice
Combine in a glass with ice and stir vigorously. Don't shake this drink as it might alter the color of the cherry juice.
