Bloody Mary Bonanza.

I've always wanted to host a party with a Bloody Mary bar.

New Year's Eve morning ... a perfect time for my Bloody Mary bar.

I don't even really like Bloody Marys. But I like all the accoutrements that you can include in a bloody mar. Olives. Crisp celery. Pickles. Skip the drink and go right for the mini-salad that comes along with a fancy bloody mary.

Plus, it makes for a cute photo. And really that, along with a nice, fresh salad, is a little slice of heaven.
