Andrew Cuomo, Semi-homemaker

My respect for New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo dropped a bit after revelations that he's dating food network tablescaper Sandra Lee. I was thinking about leaving this subject alone, until Lee, on a recent episode of her show "Semi-homemade with Sandra Lee," directed her viewers to make a drink out of 2 shots of gin, 1 shot of sweet vermouth, and 2 shots of blue curacao. That makes Lee the only person over the age of 22 to own a bottle of blue curacao.

See the video below where Lee extolls the joys of Hypnotiq:

Two observations:

The house in Georgetown with the bar full of like 20 different McCormick brand liquors had blue Curacao.

Finding out that Cuomo is dating second-hottest Food Network personality Sandra Lee increases my respect for him greatly.

Adjusted the age at which people should abandon blue curacao to 22 to comply with the above comment... I believe I was 21 at that point. Also, in Georgetown we never made drinks that were 2/5 blue curacao. That stuff exists only to make frozen drinks more festive, not as a base spirit for rocks drinks.
