Not too much going on in our lives, or anyone else’s life I assume. The lizard is taking the stay in place business to heart. He’s spent the past two days under a nightstand, doing his part to fight the COVID 19 virus.

AT least things in the cocktail world are picking up. Some of my syrups and liqueurs are becoming ready so I’ve made my first cocktails with my own ingredients. Moscow Mules and Black Russians. Kind of a Cold War theme. The Moscow Mules use a homemade ginger syrup made with raw ginger root. I didn’t have copper mugs handy, but a Collin’s glass is perfectly acceptable. The Black Russians are not your typical bar drink with vodka, Kahlua, and a dash of cola for color and sweetness. I use a homemade coffee liqueur with vodka and no cola. Potent and potable.
Moscow Mules.
Black Russians.
The ant wars turned ugly. I thought we had them beaten back. Then they launched a feint on our flanks in the garage, hitting the recyclables. I fell for the feint and then they went with a full tilt boogie frontal assault back on the kitchen counters. We finally slowed their assault but now we’re stuck in a trench warfare stalemate situation with no end in sight. I’m starting to think about a peace with honor exit now.
