The ivy cuttings...
The spider plant that was a few dying leaves pinned with a tent peg in March...
The snake plant pot I need to divide, but can't pull the rootball out of...
Ah, the "Comfort Station"... I never used to drink cocktails until Dad moved in with me in 2012. He loved Martinis. I could never stand such pure stuff. But I found fruit-based drinks to accompany him.
My favorite is a "Gin Buck". Sling glass with 4 ice cubes. 1 oz gin, 1/2 oz of lemon juice, fill with ginger ale. 2nd is what I call a "Peach Comfort". Sling glass, 4 ice cubes, 1 oz Southern Comfort and 1/2 oz Peach liquer, filled with ginger ale. 3rd is what I call a Cavebear Sling. Same glass and ice, 1 oz of gin and 1/2 oz of Pomerganate juice. Tart. I drink them all with a straw. Purists would wince. I like it because I drink it slower. I can't just "sip"...
There is bourbon and vodka in the back for odd variations, but I seldom go there. Vodka is just for getting drunk and that's not my interest. Bourbon is for visitors who like it.
And I have 2 glasses of Zinfandel wine with dinner. The White wine is for spicy chinese dinners. And I eat dinner slowly, so the wine goes slowly. I'm retired, who cares? LOL!
