He's built like a sh*t brickhouse! I mean a sh*t . . . I mean a brick . . . whoops

Out of the contents of derspatchel's drinks cabinet and in honor of Mordecai Heller, I finally made and drank a Bunny Hug.

It didn't put me under the table (and we didn't pour it down the sink, as advised by The Savoy Cocktail Book), but I think it reintroduced Rob to his sinuses. I should probably fudge the proportions next time and use less absinthe, since the whisky and gin mostly serve as backup when equally distributed. It would all have come out of somebody's bathtub originally.

Cardullo's now carries the full range of Fentiman's, shandy and rose lemonade included. I have a bottle of the latter in the refrigerator. I plan to go back for the tonic water.

There are no words to describe Brian Blessed on QI.

Knock wood. This week didn't suck, either.

Ye gods, I love Fentiman's! My favorite flavor is Dandelion & Burdock, but I also love their ginger beer and even cola. They were a favorite of mine The Time I Was In England, so nostalgia value too. Didn't know they did a rose lemonade, that sounds wonderful.

I congratulate you on your Bunny Hug. skogkatt and M. gave me absinthe once. The aniseed was like a kick in the chest, but in a good way.

The logical next step is absinthe, whiskey and gin shaken with a tablespoon of wasabi: the Myxomatosis Hug.

sporffle. Tho' I'm alarmed enough by the idea of the basic version.

I'm really looking forward to it.

I hate liquorice, but I like absinthe. Maybe it's the wormwood. Go know.

God, that sounds of a pair with rushthatspeaks' plan to set absinthe on fire and put it out with champagne: Who Killed Hemingway?
