Anyone for a nightcap?

Unfortunately JM, this thread leans a little on the side of alcohol. We only do coffee on weekend mornings.

Speak for yourself, young lady! We do coffee on the weekdays too, though we don't announce and discuss it quite as regularly as we dish on the sauce.

Word up, my caffeinated brotha.

So sorry...I didn't mean to imply that we didn't drink coffee on weekdays. I should have been more clear. My head is still a little fuzzy from my weekend of over-indulging. And I even had coffee this morning.

Not to disappoint, I hope, but I generally drink the decaf - but I make it as strong as my coffeemaker's innards can stand.

I'm glad you had your coffee today, LB. It's the first refuge of the over-indulgent, and the best one, too.

Actually, V-8 juice is best cure. But I didn't have any.
Really, I suppose the best cure is not to over-indulge in the first place. I need to get back to having some discipline around that. I like my liver, anyway.

I want the hangover cure made by Bertie Wooster's valet Jeeves:

In P. G. Wodehouse’s Jeeves and Wooster series, a hangover is the occasion of a happy event, Bertie’s hiring of Jeeves. Bertie, after “a late evening,” is lying on the couch in agony when Jeeves rings his doorbell. “ ‘I was sent by the agency, sir,’ he said. ‘I was given to understand that you required a valet.’ ” Bertie says he would have preferred a mortician. Jeeves takes one look at Bertie, brushes past him, and vanishes into the kitchen, from which he emerges a moment later with a glass on a tray. It contains a prairie oyster. Bertie continues, “I would have clutched at anything that looked like a life-line that morning. I swallowed the stuff. For a moment I felt as if somebody . . . was strolling down my throat with a lighted torch, and then everything seemed suddenly to get all right. The sun shone in through the window; birds twittered in the tree-tops; and, generally speaking, hope dawned once more.​

I just want Jeeves.

There's actually no way to be a weak, cowardly drunkard with style.

Get a grip on yourself, man. Find some French roast, or something.

*giggles* I thought that said ''french toast'' a la eggy bread

I'm ok........I'm aiming to do it with no style whatsoever

 

[minx1]

Not you. Not a chance.

Mmmm.....Gnarley Head Zin.

 

[LilyBart]

So I picked up Juno Chard on my way home from work today.

The label is really pretty.

The wine is ~eh.

I really hoped not to drink anything tonight...but such is life.

(I did keep it down tonight. Not in that way. I have a strong stomach.)

I don't think I've ever seen this in the stores.

That said, when I picked up the Gnarley Head today, I thought of CutieMouse because I seem to recall that she'd posted about sipping on some G Head recently.

Really, we need a space...just for us...on this forum to post fabulous wines. A little database maybe....

I'm in bed. Like so hawt. No literally. Flannel sheets, bitches.

 

[intothewoods]

I can't believe no one commented on my flannel sheets.

Anyway. Fuck preschool. That's what I have to say. Fuck it.

Flannel sheets are too hot for me. I tend to sleep under just a cotton sheet in the winter.

These are t-shirt sheets actually. I'm such a liar! But they feel like flannel to me. Very toasty.

I love ice cold cotton sheets. Even in the winter. One of the best feelings in the world is that half-asleep moment when I move my leg from a warm spot to an icy spot on the sheets. Bliss.

And what's the deal with preschool?

Same here: I crave the feel of a cold place on the sheet most nights.
