Doing the Derby in Style with a Bourbon Buck

A few years ago I wrote a blog titled A Stash of Sugar Cookies explaining how my friend Megan and I did not understand the mustache craze. Much to our surprise the craze had intensified! You couldn't  go anywhere without seeing a mustache. There were large pink mustaches on  NYC car services, mustache clothing for all ages, mustache party plates, and even mustache cocktail glasses! Megan surprised me with a mustache cocktail glass. Although the mustache crazy is over, I still watch the Kentucky Derby while sipping on a delicious Bourbon Buck in my stylish mustache glass. Cheers Megan!
