neptunesmoon: April 2007
http://neptunesmoon.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 14, 2007. Something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue. April 12, 2007. Handkerchief crocheted by my mother's father's mother; a shiny new 2007 penny my dad gave me for this purpose; the pearls my mother wore at her wedding; turquoise earrings purchased from an artist in NYC. Posted by Larissa @ 4:21 PM. Monday, April 09, 2007. 1) Sewing in ends and kitchner stitching toes isn't knitting. 2) Both of my couin's feet are the same size. Parent #1 received his in perso...

Better Than Free | my cocktail journey
https://cocktailjourney.wordpress.com/2013/04/17/better-than-free
Ask people what’s better than buying something and you may hear getting it for free. I’ve found something better than that. Getting it in trade. I’ve been trading booze for years. A few months ago my friend Julie looked in my cabinet and asked “Why do you have a lab sample bottle? 8221; I replied that I used it to trade whiskey samples with Doug and Rich at work. That pretty much ended the questions. It made perfect sense. Bottle Up and Go. Bottle Up and Go. 25 oz Dry Fly Gin. 05 oz lime juice. But the b...

Little Things | my cocktail journey
https://cocktailjourney.wordpress.com/2012/01/16/little-things
Who brought these glasses? Joe, January 8, 2012. If you get into cocktails, sooner rather than later you get into glassware. Cocktails and glassware are Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. Form follows function but perception follows form. To step up my game for the game, I decided to bring a bottle of Johnnie Walker Black. The dilemma here though is in the glassware. Tailgating, like football, is frenzied. I went through my mental Rolodex. Flask? Sometimes the little things really do mean a lot. You are com...

8230;the experience that comes with age seems less important than the intuition and daring of youth. Fermat’s Enigma: The Epic Quest to Solve the World’s Greatest Mathematical Problem. I was at dinner at the Ropa Vieja. 8221; He plunked his ID down on the table and waited for responses. I took a glance at his card and realized I had the nuts. No way were Sarah and J’nate older than me. I showed my ID and won the imaginary pot. Old Dog but I Got New Tricks. 05 oz Domaine de Canton. Enter your comment here.

Bull;January 1, 2012 • Leave a Comment. Derived from the “Spidey sense” of the comic book superhero Spiderman, it is generally used to mean a vague but strong sense of something being wrong, dangerous, suspicious, a security situation.

I asked him for Automatic Midnight, He brought me Hanky Panky | my cocktail journey
https://cocktailjourney.wordpress.com/2012/05/27/i-asked-him-for-automatic-midnight-he-brought-me-hanky-panky
I asked him for Automatic Midnight, He brought me Hanky Panky. I had the wonderful opportunity this past Monday to make a quick trip to The Franklin Mortgage and Investment Co. For a couple of cocktails with Jan. She had just finished the 2012 Blue Cross Broad Street run the day before. That’s an accomplishment worth toasting. In a more sobering outcome to her feat, she posted a picture of her blistered foot on her facebook page. Any foot fetish I may have held has evaporated. 1 1/2 oz. sweet vermout...

neptunesmoon: June 2007
http://neptunesmoon.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 27, 2007. The eight day baby sweater. I've had this yarn sitting around since Christmas (it was a gift), and I've been going back and forth about how to use it. It's incredibly soft, but a bit frustrating to knit with. I experimented with a baby hat:. After much searching on-line, I was unable to find a simple, straightforward baby sweater that called for yarn at my gauge (seriously - is everyone knitting baby sweaters from fingering weight yarn? Again - a very simple baby sweater with se...

neptunesmoon: January 2007
http://neptunesmoon.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 29, 2007. Sock knitting continues apace, the blue sock and the tan sock competing for my affections. One sock of each is finished up to the heel, and the blue sock is taking the lead (alpaca feels so much nicer in the hand than cotton! Another fun-filled home improvement weekend, and another set of learning points to add to the growing list. 1) When someone suggests you should rent an apartment, gut the house, and fix it all at the same time, don't completely laugh them off. 3) Similarly,...

Vertigo | my cocktail journey
https://cocktailjourney.wordpress.com/2009/08/02/vertigo
I just realized that I’ve been away for a while. There’s been quite a clamor for another post, so here we go. I first had this drink on July 4 at Stage Left Restaurant. Website. I’m not sure why Stage Left renamed their drink from one Hitchcock movie to another. I’m also not sure why we didn’t sneak a fifth of Jack into the Bridgewater fireworks later that night, we could have used it while waiting to leave the parking lot, but that’s another story. Add four ice cubes to a collins glass. 05 oz lemon juice.
