Simple Sunday – You Are Only as Old as Your Shot Glass Says You Are

I would like to believe the saying that you are only as old as you think you are but then I take a look at the shot glass on my dining room table and realize that, no, I am just old.

No longer do we use our shot glasses to drink liquids that burn holes in our stomach lining and make us light and happy.  Nope.  Now our shot glasses are used to make little carrot stick bouquets.  The boys insist that the carrots taste better served this way (and secretly I agree.)

Shots anyone

At least I can still say truthfully that our shot glasses get a lot of use.

  1. ha ha ha -have not had a shot of tequila for ever so long – remember the routine – salt, shot, lemon–now it is lime I guess

  2. Great title and a head shaking agreement conclusion.

  4. Ours neatly line a shelf…my youngest stepson and his friends don’t live here anymore 😉

  5. HAHAHAHA!!!! I had some BEAUTIFUL shot glasses from my YOUNGER TEQUILA DAYS!!! I now serve single serve deserts out of them!!! HA HA HA LAME!!!

  6. Hmmm….I am inspired to serve food in creative ways! Perhaps it will get my little girl eating better – or at least with less stress! Thanks a million! Love it!

  7. hahaha…in my house, the only one that uses martini glasses in our house is my 6 year-old daughter, who, like your boys, thinks milk tastes better in a martini glass.
    The only shot glasses left are the ones my husband buys in each city we visit, and those are on display on a book shelf….sigh…

    How creative, I would have never thought to use my shot glasses in that fashion. BTW, I’m not too old for shots, although I need to keep the count to one, but at my age I prefer it strait from the bottle….pirate style. 🙂 ARGGGGGHHHHH

  9. hahaha that is a very neat idea though on how to use the shot glasses! We have a mixology cup that the kiddos use as a regular drinking cup which is fine until I catch them reading it and learning how to mix up a cran and vodka….
