Friday Night Whiskey Buzz. Ask me anything.

Tonight, a Derby. Blended whiskey, sweet vermouth, Cointreau, and lime juice. Yummy! Nice and citrusy.

Looking forward to a relaxing weekend.

I love you all…

Instead of the red states, where their problems originate. It’s easier that way. The problems never got solved, but at least they always have someone else to blame them on.

When you have had a really stressful day and need to chill out with a stiff drink, what would you recommend?

Waiting on a veggie pizza.
My question is what beer should I get to go with my pizza when it gets here?

It’s smooth and rich and warm. Really wonderful. IMO. No one I know has ever heard of it, and we have to cross into Canada to find it.

What do you think of it?

with friends at a local brewpub. Enjoying a nightcap now. Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend!

If my mother-in-law was still with us, she'd be 100 years old today. Cheers!
