How yinz all holding up? Have you lost your damn minds yet?
This morning I realized that I’ve been home for 6 weeks. I’m still deciding how to react to that.
What you been doing to fill the hours (aside from consuming copious amounts of streaming content)?
I’ve actually been doing a little bit of online shopping.
It has been very on-brand with the whole “I’m trapped in my house/working from home” vibe.
Since we have not yet moved into caftan season, I may have to update my wardrobe with some luxury lounge wear.
And what about the rest of my time?
I’m doing what all of us not in recovery are doing: drinking.
But I’m classy and doing fancy drinks!
Bronx No. 1–made with freshly squeezed orange juice:
A delightful little drink. Sweet, but not too sweet. Gin-forward but not too boozy. Probably because the OJ and gin were combined in equal amounts.
Bronx No. 2, also made with freshly squeezed orange juice:
This only had 1/3 a jigger of juice and one and a half jigger of assorted booze.
This, not so good. Too much liquor, not enough juice. And the two vermouths together…it ended up mostly tasting of vermouth. Not a fan.
But I have a fully-stocked bar, so I can, as they say, try, try again.

I like gin and orange juice, but these both sound a little too Vermouthy. The stuffed mushiroomirooms look pretty good, though.
Wish I could send you some of my oranges, or maybe one of my "Frankenlemons" that are the size of a large guinea pig (no fooling!).
Take care!
Did you add egg white to the drinks? I'm a sucker for a drink with egg white.
OH GROSS IT SAYS EGG YOLK I MISREAD IT
I'm definitely doing a lot of spirit imbibation. But, I have a schedule going. Bloodies with Price is Right, beer with Let's Make a Deal, and martinis with Family Feud! Luckily they all air about 3 hrs apart.
The wrist brace industry is probably getting a real boost! I felt like such like such an old lady ordering mine, but now I feel better knowing you had to get them too.
I AM an old lady -- already had my wrist braces. ;)
