Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse, along comes ...

Jawbreaker

We aim to please.

Here's one I might actually try:
Title: Allspiced Cider
1 tb Whole allspice
1 Cinnamon stick (3 inch)
3 c Apple cider
1 c Orange juice
1/2 Lemon, sliced
1 ts Honey
1/4 c Brandy

Looks okay, but that much allspice risks
being bitter. I'd consider using maybe a
teaspoon of it and half of peppercorns.

From McCormick/Schilling and American Spice Trade Association.
Printed in the December 27, 1992, Los Angeles Daily News.

There are good things that come from
corporate America, then, maybe.

On the other hand, it might not have been a
great idea to volunteer, because the need for
volunteers may have evaporated, and there he
would be at the gate and forced to fly, in
which case faking illness or emergency would
be the only way to get out of trouble.

Until I did some reading last night I didn't realize it was illegal
to not use a ticket. That seems ridiculous.

Not exactly illegal, but civilly
actionable as breach of contract; but
practically speaking, what the airlines
do is confiscate your airline miles.

Title: Aviation
1 1/2 oz Gin
1/2 oz Lemon Juice
1/2 oz Maraschino liqueur

This cocktail is supposed to contain
parfait amour and be of a pale purple
because of that.

All of your miles, or just those which would have been earned on the
unused leg of the flight? For someone like you, that could be a very
serious penalty if the former.

BTW, we happened to score a couple of briskets on sale from Giant today.
I plan on smoking them in the next week. Just saying, in case you
and/or Lili might have some free time to head east :-}}

In keeping with my theme of supplying at least a little pork for you
with my monthly theme, I give you the following.
