I did not, bon, but it's back in the fridge and sitting now. I will check for deliciousness tomorrow.
And we live to fight another day.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
I don't think I even knew that show existed.
ION, the job I was interviewed for on Monday and expected to start on today was first postponed until tomorrow and I just noticed an email from the temp company that they won't be ready for me til Monday.
It's actually ok, I seem to have come down with a cold and an upset stomach, so I will lie low and watch Microsoft Office training videos to get ready.

but I love me some Hendrick's
I second this! I didn't think I liked gin but I love Hendrick's. Especially with St. Germaine. Yum!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I have to strain out my lime cordial tonight, too, as well as my attempt at kumquat cordial/syrup.

Kumquat, eh? That sounds like a good idea.
Two strong endorsements for Hendrick's! I think I can swing by BevMo tomorrow and see if they have any.

I couldn't make the NYT recipe using kumquats since they don't provide enough juice. But I combined peels and some flesh (for the bitterness) in a light syrup, macerated for a day, strained it and it's pretty good. Very noticeable kumquatty-bitter aftertaste, though.
ETA: I just combined it with some marginally drinkable wine for a sangria experience. It's, shall we say, too drinkable.

I've strained my lime cordial
And being right after the medical discussion, I read that and thought "What part of the body is the lime cordial in, how do you strain it, and does it hurt?"

That's good to know, bon. I was thinking of trying a kumquat cordial, and it sounds like it turned out pretty well. Def trying out some homemade lime cordial once my cough is contained.

Oh and I was going to say:
At least a diagnosis is validating?
Yes and no, only because I went in to the first doctor basically saying "hmm, think my viral cold turned into a bad cough that won't go away, what can I do?" And he was kinda dismissive, suggesting OTC cough syrup. annoying. I much prefer my PCP.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
What did your PCP suggest? I'm in week 6 of a cough that won't quit.
