I so want a vodka gimlet with ginger syrup. Or to find a local bar that will make that for me.
Javachik, let's find a local bar who will do that.
Except not tonight, because I just had a homemade Pisco sour, and I clearly make them too strong.
Also, why isn't Falling Skies a better show?

Try the Hotsy Totsy in Albany. That might not be particularly local for you.
Or the Alembic in the Haight?
Still not very close.
Downtown Oakland has some cocktailian bars...
Oh, god, that sounds amazing.
It is SO good. I make my own syrup, then strain out the slices of ginger, sprinkle them with sugar and use them to garnish the glass (homemade candied ginger, basically). A little extra effort, but I'm worth it.
While there had been strain on the marriage, the final straw was finding out he had been molesting their daughter.
How truly awful. I am sorry.
"No--the carnitas burrito, but no meat no beef no chicken."
He's aware that this is NOT carnitas, no? I mean, clearly not. But wow. He's not bright and I am shocked he can function in a real job.
I would like all of the cocktails tonight. Preferably the delicious ones. But I am not going to be picky right now.
I'm thinking of breaking into my stash of Fernet.
when I don't feel like the effort, my quick cocktail is bourbon and San Pelligrino lemon soda. The tanginess of the lemon and the sweetness of the bourbon are lovely.
Suzi, that's horrific. I wish strength and healing to your friend and her daughter. Also, I hope that man's balls fall off.
Oh, Suzi, how awful. I hope you get to see your friend soon, somehow

I bet Juliana can tell us where to get one...
I am totally craving a vodka gimlet right now.
