Answer them critics with silence and indifference. It works better, I assure you, than anger and argument. - Rossini

I will have guests the whole afternoon so I will not be able to watch any match today but I have no doubt France will win.

A friend regifted me a bottle of fermented citrus wine. I mix it with a really cheap plum liquor (I live in Japan), and add some generic 70 proof white alcohol, a shot of Canadian club and a splash of red wine. I mix it (and drink it) in a big fruit jar. It won't win any awards, but it's pleasant to drink and does the trick.
It's all good...

Haven't tried that before.  How have you been using it?

I'd be interested to see the recipe if you wouldn't mind?

Off to fix my morning coffee (with whole milk).

San Antone

About once a year I'll stop off at one of the larger liquor stores in Cookeville and ask if they have any Blanton's.  Yesterday, they did, but the only way they'd sell a bottle was as part of a bundle, with two other "store picks".  But the per bottle price was lower than the last time I bought some, so I went for it.

One of the store picks was a single barrel bourbon from Bob Dylan's brand, Heaven's Door. Apparently, the Bard of My Generation is something of a connoisseur of fine whiskeys, and his bottle was a nice sipping bourbon.  ;)
