I suspect that if you surveyed random Americans, less than 20% would name hamburgers as being “the most American food”.

Really. I would think it be much much higher than that.

Manolo is an excellent drink mixer, so whenever he's at a party and we've had our coffee, someone brings him some glasses, a bowl of ice (see yellow bowl above), lemons, and all the fixin's. He made me two gin & tonics since I wasn't driving anywhere. Mmmmm....saphirey goodness. That’s Bailey’s behind a french press coffee maker.

Is that Bailey's Irish in a cooling container? Did you spend the day making ice? I think I spot rum, Scotch, and Bombay Sapphire gin on that table. Is that Bailey’s Irish in a cooling container?

I regret not photographing an actual burger like I did last year, but I was so busy serving that I barely had time to snarf mine down. I'll do better next year.
