Happy Friday. It's been a week. Hoo boy is been a week. Oddly enough I've been on vacation this past week. My sister, her kids and my mom also stayed with us. It's been fun, but a tiring week with four kids running around the house at all times. At
Happy Friday, hopefully not many of you are affected by Crowdstrike nuking the internet overnight. If you are, I hope the fallout is limited to not being able to work versus not being able to get on a plane and travel. Either way, at least I know if I have
Remember remember the checks calendar the 12th of July? Well I'm remembering the time I made the Remember the Maine. All the way back in the second post of this series back in 2019. Oh, the simpler times...

Hello once again and happy Friday. I trust everyone still has the requisite number of digits still attached to their hands after yesterday's festivities. I certainly do, and on top of that, in feeling much better after two week yous of antibiotics. I'm not 100% back yet, but that's no
Life pro tip. Avoid sinus infections. I'd rate them 0/10.
That's right. Due to this lingering infection, I've got nothing made this week, for the second week in a row in fact. I woke up on Fathers day to the room spinning like I was drunk, but minus all the fun

Hooray for Friday! I've had a surprisingly busy week and needed to pivot off what I was hoping to make this week. Turns out, I hit on an excellent middle ground. I went to the Martini book for a quick and easy variant to make, and found a strong sounding
Happy short week Friday! Just curious, did anything of significance happen yesterday that I might have missed? Nah, definitely not. This week I found an interesting twist on a daiquiri that I wanted to try. It adds a few dashes of absinthe to the sugar/lime juice rum mix. I've been
Hello long weekend! It's been a long, and unseasonably hot week and I need a nice drink for the upcoming weekend. I went into this week's drink looking for something light and refreshing since it's touched 90 degrees that last few days. I was in a little bit of a
...Don't nobody worry 'bout me. Thanks to Chris Kreider's third period hat trick to eliminate the Carolina Hurricanes Vichy Whalers, I am very much alright this evening. NHL playoffs are glorious and heart wrenching all at the same time. This week's drink was a last minute switch out, as the
Playoff overtime is awesome. Heart attack inducing if your team is involved, but extremely entertaining none the less. The intro here is being written after the second overtime game in a row with the Rangers being victorious in both games.
Back to back overtime winners and a 3-0 series lead means
Happy Derby and Cinco de Mayo Friday! Hopefully you've all got something lined up for this excellent weekend. Me? I'll be out of state at a friend's wedding that they are turning into a giant Kentucky Derby party. Unfortunately, the Cinco de Mayo portion of the weekend is travel for
