No, this isn't like signing up for one's week in the barrel. I am not much of a planner, but I wanted to take the group's temperature overall. Where: Baltimore, MD When: Friday, 15 July through Sunday, 17 July Why: Frank Lampard's Everton v. King's Afrikan Water Pistols (7p Saturday, 16 July, whatever the

Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: Merry Gin Day Eve

Sharkbait - June 10, 2022June 10, 2022

Happy Friday once again! This Friday is somewhat special since it is "World Gin Day" eve. Did you know that was a thing? I certainly didn't. I think that means I need to make and review a gin based drink right? I originally was going to make the Last Word

Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: It’s Pronounced Nuclear

Sharkbait - June 3, 2022June 3, 2022

Hello and happy Friday once again. I've cleared my 'rona quarantine at FOB: Cape Cod without any positive tests so I'm finally back home. The bachelor party which was the reason for going to Vegas in the first place was highly entertaining as most bachelor parties are. I enjoyed how we

Good evening. Had a bitch of a week and completely gapped on this. Don't say its the weed because I have cut way down. So much so that the company I order off of has recently sent me a "We miss you" email! I got to go to Decilitres new Kindergarten

Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: Punchout!

Sharkbait - May 27, 2022May 27, 2022

Hello and happy long weekend Friday everyone. I’m checking in from Forward Operating Base: Cape Cod this week. I’ve been isolating here since I went to Las Vegas for a bachelor party last week. Given that Sharkette isn’t vaccinated yet (looking at you FDA. You have Moderna data, review it!)

Oh boy! Sunday Night with Prairie Wino.

As you may have seen our friend BC Dick has labelled me the above and actually he isn't wrong. He's here visiting this weekend so I am taking him to the futbol, and full family trip to dinosaur country. First though this week I had to take part in a four

Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: Judgement Day

Sharkbait - May 20, 2022May 20, 2022

Happy cocktail Friday! I'm excited to bring a new spirit to the arsenal of booze I keep in the bar. But first a little bit of back story. I wanted to make a tropical drink this week (a mai tai specifically) but was lacking orgeat syrup. When discussing how to

tWBS died two years ago. The Covid lockdown took tWBS away, never to be seen or heard from again. More corona mutations and science deniers: THAT we get back from the freakin’ lockdown. Makes no sense! Sorry Christians, but “God” sucks. Everyone says that honesty and generosity are two of the

Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: Blondes Have More Fun

Sharkbait - May 13, 2022May 13, 2022

Happy Friday one and all. This week I've got a gin based cocktail I've been wanting to try. With it getting warmer finally, I'm once again looking for more seasonally appropriate drinks that are easy to make while spending time outside that are also refreshing. The Dirty Blonde recipe seems

Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: Minty Fresh

Sharkbait - May 6, 2022May 6, 2022

Happy Derby eve! I found it somewhat hard to believe in my couple years writing about drinks, I've yet to make a mint julep. This needs to be rectified immediately. Especially since I'm going to be serving them to a small gathering we're hosting for the Derby, so I should

Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: Margurites

Sharkbait - April 29, 2022April 29, 2022

Happy Friday and day 2 of the NFL draft. I missed the first round last night but it seems like I missed a decent amount: The Jets and Giants did a good?! AJ Brown to the Eagles! Hollywood Brown to the Cardinals in what I assume was some sort of mix-up where they

Sharkbait’s Cocktail Of The Week: Room For Improvement

Sharkbait - April 22, 2022April 22, 2022

Happy Friday everyone. For this week we're going a little old school. The Improved cocktail has been around since the 1870s when bartender Jerry Thomas created it, and then published it in his book "How To Mix Drinks: or the Bon-Vivant's Companion". What makes this improved is that it builds on
