Been a long time for me...if Vodka was Kale, I'm in. It is not, unfortunately.

Sorry about your day in another thread. I had a tractor f'ups Sunday for the record book...then I saw your thread.

Good. And thank you for posting. Boz: "Nothing you can't handle, nothing you ain't got..."

How many drops of gin do you use per drink?
OK here's the math. I get the 1.75L bottle. My SS ramekin is 50ml so you can get 35 gin & tonics out of a bottle. So cut that in half for weeks but some weeks I would have just 1 or even none so the math works pretty well.

Just got a 2018 Bordeaux for spaghetti all'assassina tonight. It drinks well right out of the bottle but am looking forward to it opening up a bit.

Always thought a couple drinks per day was good for the heart but I am pretty sure the Diet Coke is just awful health wise.
You're good until you use Red Bull for your mixer.

Glad you are still here today with us Scott. So many Pelicans are no longer. I've also been lucky that Darwin is a bad shot.
There are no "do-overs" on that side..
The mind plays such cruel tricks over insignificant things. The price for all the good things not yet noticed. We do what we can.

Truth in that. Alcohol, drugs, sex, food, social interaction - whatever makes you feel good is naturally addictive. I'll confess to all but the drugs and socializing at one point or another in my life. I have a friend who will not shut up. I think he's addicted to the sound of his own voice. Or the fear that his existence doesn't matter - or something.
