National Bloody Mary Day

Happy New Year's Eve, and may it be joyful and safe.  Not much happening tonight in this house, but here's a holiday I could get into: Town and Country magazine reports that tomorrow is National Bloody Mary Day. In the January issue, they reprint the original recipe by Fernand Petiot created in 1934 for the "Red Snapper" at the King Cole Bar at the St. Regis Hotel in NYC. Far better to make at home, as the magazine reports they are $30 each at the St. Regis (when I had one there, it seemed the $20 they were back then was already pretty outrageous, but now that's sounding like a bargain).
