To celebrate National Grammar Day I will be perusing the Web site, http://nationalgrammarday.com/, in order to look at their Top 10 Grammar Tips.
It is the morning as I post this, but for those already looking forward to Happy Hour may appreciate their recipe for the Grammartini:
How to Mix a Perfect Grammartini
Pour two-and-a-half ounces of gin, a half-ounce of dry vermouth and several ice cubes into a martini shaker.
Shake. (The shaker—not your body or your dog’s paw.)
Strain into a chilled martini glass and garnish with an olive. If you must, use a lemon twist instead. The Society for the Promotion of Good Grammar likes olives, however. When life hands us lemons, we make lemonade.
