My New Bar Cart
Because of the state of the world, I decided I needed a bar cart. Ok, that’s not actually true. I actually decided I needed a bar cart because my friend Amy has an awesome bar cart and I was super jealous and also because I was sick of storing my booze in a broom closet. I’d been looking for one that would meet my needs1 for a while and finally found one that I liked, and then it went on sale for 50% off and so it was totally a sign that I needed to buy it.
Naturally, the kitties were very eager to help me build it:

Here are the kitties doing a thorough inspection to make sure all the parts were shipped to us:
It was a little complicated to put together – this is clearly not an IKEA piece, but hopefully that means it will actually last a long time! Thankfully, Scott came over to put it together with me!
And here it is in all its splendour:
The part at the bottom fits my wine collection as well as some short bottles of booze, like Cointreau and Chambord. The cart doesn’t actually even fit all my booze – well, it would if I put some bottles on the top, but I want to make sure that the cats don’t plan to go up there (so far, they haven’t). For the moment, my lesser used boozes are on the top shelf of my broom closest and the other shelves of the broom closest can now store other stuff. Hooray!
To celebrate, some wine may have been enjoyed:
- Translate: one where I am reasonably confident the cats will not knock over all the bottles. Not that my cats knock things over very often (certainly they break stuff much less often than I do), but I feel like if they were to knock anything over, I wouldn’t want it to be bottles of booze. [↩]

Wow that is great…..now you have to teach the cats to mix and you a drink
Great idea! You should come for a visit and they can mix a drink for you too!
Awesome! Coincidentally I am getting rid of a few cocktail books. I’ll email you a picture in case you’re interested in any of them. Let us know when we can come by and help put the new cart to work!
Very swanky!
i think your cat has a problem.
