Jane in NC Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Oh, I am so sorry! I'm not quite as prepared as I should be either. I make this recipe and I am out of orange liqueur. Poor me... :nopity: Too bad you are not in the neighborhood. I have Grand Marnier in the cupboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparrow Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 You'll have to let me know when to drink because I'm clicking for my updates. Bellwether has fallen out of favor since the results are further along now. Sorry! I'll go ahead and say it, "bellwether". Drink! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawna in Texas Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 I might be happy, though. It probably won't be as interesting. I'll probably be obnoxious if I'm happy, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandelion Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 I'm drinking a nice merlot (and yes, I've seen the movie Sideways - but I refuse to let that ruin my enjoyment ;) ).14 Hands merlot - a great Columbia River Valley wine... I've got a bottle and a half - I should be good. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibraryLover Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 :001_smile: It is interesting because they are dosed heavily with a hop from New Zealand called Nelson Sauvin rather than the ubiquitous Cascade hops so common in west-coast brews. It is good. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sisyphus Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 I'm drinking Coors, and a while ago I found a chart online that shows your political party by the beer you drink. Mine was dead wrong, though. :lol: I don't think I can stay up much later though, a sad side effect of my Coors is I fall right to sleep. That's why I only drink at home!
