Cheers?

"Hurricane"

1 oz vodka
1/4 oz grenadine syrup
1 oz gin
1 oz light rum
1/2 oz Bacardi® 151 rum
1 oz amaretto almond liqueur
1 oz triple sec
grapefruit juice
pineapple juice

Pour all but the juices, in order listed, into a hurricane glass three-quarters filled with ice. Fill with equal parts of grapefruit and pineapple juice, and serve.


That much alcohol might take the edge off.

yeah, but this one tastes better:

Chocolate Martini
1/2 shot of Vodka (pref vanilla or carmel)
1 1/2 shots of Creme de Cacao
1 1/2 shots of Chocolate Liqueur (Godiva is good)
2 1/2 shots of Half-n-Half

Pour into a shaker with ice, shake and then pour liquid mix (sans ice)
into a martini glass. Ice cream can be used in place of the half-n-
half. Not sure how much, just add and blend until the consistency you
want.

I dunno, I'm partial to a well-mixed bloody mary. Absolut Peppar (a spicy vodka goes well with a spicy drink after all), tomato juice, splashes of A1 and Worcestershire, a tad of horseradish, peppar and topped off with a couple of olives and a celery stick. Mmmm. I could go for a bloody mary right now as a matter of fact...

So, I Changed My Mind

More than four years ago, the blog and I parted ways. I needed a change. A whole lot happened in my world since then. I switched jobs a couple times. My kid went from an elementary school tween to a teenage high schooler. We built a new house and moved. Both my parents and my sister have passed. The world around me changed as well. Mass shootings, racism, the #metoo movement, a misogynistic bigoted narcissist in the White House ... go ahead, add to the list. Toss your woes into this dumpster fire we call 2019.  I appreciate my previous sentiment, that I was no longer wandering. But let's be honest, we're all trying to find our way through this mess. I decided to reboot the blog to give myself a creative outlet, a way to sort through the confusion and frustration and attempt to make sense of it all. I have a voice, and I'm not keen to silence it anymore. Guess what? I'm back, bitches.

In memoriam...

I remember the first time I heard the name "Les Anderson." A bunch of Wichita State University communication majors were sitting around on campus, talking about classes they planned to take. Several people warned me: watch out for Les Anderson. He was tough. He had a murderous grading scale. It was nearly impossible to get an A. They weren't kidding. But he wasn't tough just to be a tyrant. From his teaching sprang a fleet of incredible, successful journalists, writers, editors, broadcasters, public relations experts, advertisers, non-profit professionals...I could go on and on. Most importantly, he created a legion of people who wanted to make a difference in the world. The greatest gift Les gave to them all? He believed in them, cared about them for their own personal stories as well as the stories they told for class assignments or in the pages of his hometown newspaper. Les was my teacher. My boss. My mentor. My conscience. My champion. My friend. When I started c...
