Spritzer bar is an excellent idea! As is tiny liquor store. Be sure and get something you like in case you end up with a lot leftover.

Health~ma for your grandmother, askye.
I'm glad the fundraiser did well, amyth!
A spritzer bar sounds fun. And for hot weather, I think the extra hydration's a good idea.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I just randomly scored a ticket to see Cecile Richards talk tomorrow. Within walking distance from home, even. What are the chances that luck will carry over to the Hamilton lottery for the Sunday matinee?

So hive mind, I am in charge of wine and champagne for the wedding in July. Should I do this with a local booze place, or mail order? Costco? Any suggestions welcome. I think there are going to be a lot more beer drinkers than wine and the kids are getting a keg, but champagne should happen for toasts. Her parents already arranged the food. I'm thinking the day will be here sooner than anticipated.
I like to buy local. If you are buying for a wedding, you are probably buying in bulk, and your local guys can get you a good deal. That said, don't sleep on Kirkland brand booze. Always acceptable quality, and often better than your average name brand.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Yeah, we're using the Kirkland bubbly for our post-ceremony toast

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Beloveds, sending all the hair pats, hugs, ~ma I can. You are precious to my heart. I love your successes and the weird things you think about.
My anxiety has ramped up over the last few weeks, culminating in having an anxiety attack at work, aimed at employee and in front of people supported. So I emailed my primary care NP to discuss upping the Lexapro dose.

I *love* my tiny local liquor store, so heartily second/third/fourth that recommendation if you can swing it. You can probably even just call them and have a couple of cases ready to be picked up.

It's an aggressively spring morning, super happy people breaking out shorts and sundresses and happily greeting total strangers....and having morning sex in front of newly opened windows as neighbors sit on their porches & exchange sheepish glances.

Our wings are not tired.
Thank you for the suggestions. I am investigating a couple paths. One of the places I found from -t's link was a West Palm Beach brewery that had a news article yesterday supporting Dreamers and DACA. Supporting companies that speak up is on my list too. [link]
The more I think about the spritzer bar the more I love it. July in FL is stupid hot and hydration can be an issue.
