One of the things we don't need to look back and wish we'd done is use blueberry juice, even (or especially) unfiltered organic blueberry juice, as a vodka mixer. Pttoooey.

Pretty sure that's not a "named" drink in any bar in America.

Well, probably. There are a lot of bars in America. But, we'd also have to find someone as stoopid as me.

Problem is, once you get the alcohol in there, you can't strain it back out.

Too, too true....
And that's a lovely cane you have there.
I just had this vision---I am sitting in a rocking chair on the porch of a nursing home, laptop open, orthopedic shoes on my little scrawny chicken legs, a pink bow in the delicate if meager, white wisps of hair on my pink scalp. I am drooling adorably as I chortle over my post. An aide stops with my afternoon drink of Ensure, but I impatiently knock the glass to the floor and tell her to get the hell out; I am writing a charming piece that seems to involve black lace lingerie, a platinum card, a bottle of champagne and Beethoven.

I wrote the same one yesterday, but it doesn't matter: you never remember.
