ION, how could I determine if a particular book is in any bookstore in the area? Call the publisher and ask if any area stores have bought the book?
Joyce: And what did you do tonight? Dawn: Irritated Giles. I'm beginning to get why Buffy likes it so much.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I love eating Kraft Mac N Cheese right out of the pot with a wooden spoon.
Well, *I* at least get a proper fork to eat my Mac n Cheese out of the pot with. t /snooty

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Gimlets need sugar, dammit!
That's why you have simple syrup. Rose's is yuck compared to real lime.
David, two ingredients does not make "a proper cocktail," no matter how you serve it, so why make dishes? Dishes suck.
Yeah, it does. A highball is just booze plus mixer. 7&7, Rum and coke, etc.

It's very satisfying to build a proper cocktail.
Especially because in our house, it usually involves antique implements, setting something on fire, or, on really good nights, both!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, it does. A highball is just booze plus mixer. 7&7, Rum and coke, etc.
But they aren't made better by being put in a glass! Rum and coke is made better by adding a lime, but then you have three ingredients! Is what I was getting at.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I think a cocktail needs a garnish. Twist of lemon for the 7&7 and a lime wedge for the rum & coke. Therefore if you take a swig of diet coke, add some vanilla vodka and squeeze a little lime before you swallow that'd be a cocktail.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Pete makes all the cocktails?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
That's why you have simple syrup. Rose's is yuck compared to real lime.
As a serious gimlet drinker, I respectfully dissent.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I will agree with Hec, though I'm likely biased since even at home, mine are made by a professional.

I avoid the problem by drinking beer or wine at home. Though wine involves a glass, which is a dish to wash. (I refuse to drink wine out of the bottle, because even though I can eat a whole family-size box of Oreos in one sitting, there's just something unseemly about drinking a nicely aged cabernet right out of its bottle.)
