If you like Jenny’s work as much as we do, swing by Jenny’s show, Show Me Your TIFFS, this Thursday featuring some clever specialty cocktails for those of us with the right initials: Double D (i.e. Dorcas Doolittle), Double J (i.e. Jenny Jiménez!), and Double You (i.e. Barbie Babbit or MitcheLL, KnoxviLLe.) Identification courteously requested. Oh, and there’s also gonna be a wet t-shirt contest. Yeeeeeeeeah!

Check out the rest of Jenny’s excellent portfolio on her website and keep up with her comings and goings on her blog.
