    C'mon down!

    You shoulda been here an hour ago. We took her over to the neighbor's house so she could play with his dog in a fenced yard.

    She is a real little bully. She plays with his Pit / Lab mix and another neighbor's, (a brewer no less), Rhodesian Ridgeback and lays down the law with both of 'em. Too funny...and she's the much smaller dog at 55 lbs.

    There are two traditional methods to fix absinthe, Parisian and Bavarian.
    Parisian is pouring ice water over a sugar cube.
    Bavarian sets the sugar cube on fire, first.
    I have never tried the Bavarian method, but the Méthode Parisienne can be pretty darned tasty, and is excellent on a hot muggy afternoon/evening.

    Note that absinthe is a bitters, which is an herbal infusion, and can vary greatly, maker to maker.

    I like Girly Drinks.

    At this stage in my life, I have no manhood left that I feel needs proving. ;-)
