sometimes, you just need a stiff drink. something that tastes delicious, warms you a bit from the inside out and instantly relaxes you. you know, makes your shoulders fall aways from your ears as you breath a sigh of relief after a long day or even a long week. 

i had a VERY interesting week. and after much cooking, negotiating and planning, i have something EXCITING in the works. we are not quite at a point where all can be revealed but it is all REALLY GOOD news. but good news or not, i've been on an emotional roller coaster and i've never needed a stiff drink more. 

a TASTY stiff drink. that makes me happy when i look at it.
