January 19, 2011 (Day 354) — Ginger Cognac I’ve only got a little bit of my cognac left, so I figured this evening I’d finish off the bottle and make another cognac-based cocktail.

January 4, 2010 (Day 339) — Snowstorm Coffee Just in time for the weather to start warming up around southwest Kansas, I decided to make a warmer for the evening to get me perked up for an evening of complex character development set in Victorian England. Not only that, we all need a jolt of […]
