Since this weekend is a national drinking holiday, the Austin Police Department would like for you to know that it’s perfectly okay for you to get totally trashed on booze and then drive and/or boat.
Can someone explain to me why you’d ever purchase a personal watercraft, at least if you live in Austin? It seems that personal watercraft are banned on the lakes every single damn holiday: if you do own one, when can you use it?
Ah, what the heck, I’ve been meaning to link this for a while, and the national drinking holiday makes it relevant: bonus Negroni related content just for Glen. I may have to pick up a bottle of Campari and some sweet vermouth this weekend.
Gary Regan’s whole philosophy of drink mixing is captured there at the end of that article where she invites you to consider that a Negroni is 1 part base, 1 part bitter, and 1 part sweetener. I’ve found Campari quite a strong flavor in the past, although I’ve warmed up to it. Changing the recipe around would be fun. Unfortunately, I don’t currently have a stocked bar to try this from as we are in temporary housing.
[…] That’s a negroni… […]
