Friday Night Vodka Buzz. Ask me anything.

Two shots of Smirnoff, and now, a New York Sour.

Took a testing sip of the rye. Let’s just say I’ve seen two-handed lumberjack saws with a smoother edge…

But it goes well in a cocktail…

Happy Friday Night, everybody.

I love you all…

Well, I finished them off last night and don't have any for after dinner tonight.
Should I continue pacing back and forth? It's a long ways to the store. Hurry sunrise.
Any recommendations?

Note: buy a bigger box or bag of cookies. Or keep the ready-to-bakes in your freezer.

You can sprinkle some chococlate chips on top, and it is a passable sweet treat.

Or dunk a graham cracker into cool whip. Very passable If you do pb, choc and cool whip, you won't care you ran out of cookies!

If you start getting short again, try breaking the cookies in half. You might think you're getting the proper dose

That’s your best bet.
