Girls Killing Trees

Apple Hill

For at least 15 years, we have had a tradition of the lady drunks killing our Christmas trees. The recipe is simple.

1) Pile lady drunks into cars
2) Travel to Placerville for brekkie (this year was Sweetie Pie's)
3) Try to remember how to get to Robert's Christmas Tree Farm (the further away one), miss the road then finally find it.
4) Wander about, finally cutting down adorably unique trees
5) Hit Jack Russell Brewery (this time for cider)
6) Apple donuts
7) Wine tasting
8) Z-Pies

It's a solid tradition even in the rain & cold.

Drink With Your Family Day

If you can't drink with the drunks on one Thursday a year (Thanksgiving) then I guest you have to drink with your family!

Hideaway

2565 Franklin Boulevard
Sacramento, CA 95818
(916) 455-1331

We fall in love with this place each time we go here. A really solid bar, arguably the best burgers in town and easy to make a group of tables for over a dozen drunks. Delicious, easy, divey and so close to our hearts.

Iron Grill Korean BBQ

2030 Douglas Boulevard
Roseville, CA 95661
(916) 899-5448

We've never done a Korean BBQ place for a Thursday so this was a fun one! If you order the all-you-can-eat grill, you sit by an open grill and they bring you the huge assortment of pickled veggies and then piles of seasoned meats. They are surprisingly flavorful and much more tasty than I expected. They have individual items as well, but it's an all-or-nothing system so your whole party has to either do the do-it-yourself grill or you sit at a regular table and order your own dishes.

Full disclosure that I wasn't there (again) but I did just eat there for the first time last week.

Meanwhile, I was in Kauai.

Monk's Cellar

240 Vernon Street
Roseville, CA 95678
(916) 786-6665

All the Roseville drunks have been waiting patiently for the Monk's Cellar to open. Right on Vernon Street close to Nela's Mexican, it's a great little addition. It's also the closest bar in walking distance to The Jenny & Naked Bob, so you know...that doesn't suck.

Again, I wasn't there so I can't speak much more about it other than everyone loves it. I'll need to hit it up soon to make peace with my drinky soul.
