Tis the season for the annual spate of articles about making ghoulish treats for Halloween, including tasty adult libations. I read one for a Blood Sipper cocktail that was a delicious-sounding vodka infusion of red fruits–frozen strawberries, raspberries, cranberries–and pomegranate juice, the latter of which, at a cup in the full recipe is a bit…

The recent global outbreak of covid-19 (aka Coronavirus) has the public on edge, and rightly so since at present there isn’t an effective vaccine available to prevent it or as yet an anti-viral medication to kill it, although the Coronavirus Task Force assures us those are being fast-tracked on the way. More than 80,000 people…
As I suggested in my last post, you should watch the embedded video to study up for this post. In case you didn’t watch the video, or if you came to this post without having seen the previous one, I’ll embed the video below. I hate to do so, because the way YouTube shows the…

I have been casting about trying to figure out how to start this blog post, the first in over two years. In the old days when I was blogging almost daily, I would wake up every morning thinking about what I was going to write about. I would get up, make a cup of Americano,…
