  1. CW: Booze

    Not that I haven't had a daiquiri for long but I usually make one with syrup - this way with powdered sugar in lime juice is a variant I haven't tried in a while. Sugar is powdered now, I will have more!

  2. For #WorldGinDay, finishing off with a White Lady after reading @libationlegacy’s posts earlier.
    For some reason the egg whites never stay very stiff in these.
    Is it because the 80 proof Cointreau and a properly high proof London dry gin (like Tanqueray) make for an ABV that the proteins in the egg white just can’t stand up to?🤷‍♂️
    Even with less than perfect texture it’s still a delicious drink.

  3. It’s great to see more advocacy for proper #Daiquiri construction with granulated sugar. Personally I always keep a blend of super fine (white) sugar and Demerara sugar (that I’ve Vitamixed to the same superfine consistency) on hand for Daiquiris. Dissolves much more quickly.

    I may or may not have had a couple of these while watching My Man Godfrey.
    Hadn’t seen it in ages, and it’s as fantastic as ever. Really glad not to have watched anything Oscar nominated tonight.

  11. Nightcap is a #Stinger tonight. This one with Pierre Ferrand 1840, and a mix of Get 31 and Branca Menta.

    Good, but I think I prefer just the Get 31 if the ratios are right.

  12. A Manhattan sort of night… started off with John deBary’s Shark, half of which ended up in my lap after tangling with my winter sofa blanket, then another Shark, perhaps better than the first, PDT style tots and a 2Pok, finishing with Max Green’s Freeride. #PDT #AmorYAmargo #Cocktail #Cocktails #Rum #Tiki #HotDogs #AreNotSandwiches #ForTheRecord

  16. @SazeracLA my favorite substitutions with Stiggins Fancy are a #Sazerac, an #ElPresidente, or half the base of a #Sidecar. Or really any drink. Put some Stiggins in there and it will be better!

  21. CW: Food Preparation - Uncooked Meat

    Shake off excess water over sink. Don't touch it with anything, especially a drying cloth!

    Immediately stir meat around in bucket with whisk taking care not to get hands in curing solution.

    This minimises the potential for harmful bacteria transfer from you into the curing solution which is essential for safe results!

  22. A little farm and garden update for the homies:

    One of my favorite things about the #farm is that every day is pretty much a different experiment.

    The mason jar filled with flowers is my attempt at making lilac oil using the #enfleurage technique. After steeping for a few weeks, it should be ready to go.

    The meat photo? #capicolla! It's going to be vacuum sealed for a week, and then it shall go hang in my cellar with the #bresaola I've had hanging for two weeks now.

    And the garden-- I've got everything in this photo planted except those buckets along the back wall. I'm building a raised bed for watermelons back there, but right now the buckets are back there as storage because I don't know what I'm going to use them for (or plant in them) yet. They'll probably end up going between the back fence and the big bed in the middle. If you have any ideas, let me know!

    The next step aside from the watermelon bed is to finish laying cardboard out to kill weeds, and then cover it with wood chips and level everything, so it doesn't look, well, like it does in the photo.

    Also, if you havent figured it out yet... I'm in my cottage core era now.

  23. Frost and Fire, Part 2 – Heavy Metal Edition

    This past SpaceAce Sunday, we looked at the first of two albums we have on The List that have the same, rather holiday-relevant title of Frost and Fire. While The Watersons’ album actually has a few Xmas/Xmas-adjacent songs, the same cannot be said of the album we are looking at today. But, it’s December 24, and so anything you listen to can be an Xmas album if you want it to be. Or, as they[1] say, “yippie kayak, other buckets!”

    Cirith Ungol – Frost and Fire (1981, US)

    And so, today we take a listen to number 892 on The List, submitted by Almoehi.

    I know that many metalheads are absolutely fanatic about this band, but listening to this album the other day was actually the first I had ever heard of theirs! With the band named after the mountain pass in Tolkien’s Middle-earth that goes through the Ephel Dúath (you know, the one near Minas Morgul in Mordor…), one might expect a lot of LoTR-themed lyrics on this, the band’s debut album. But, perhaps hinted at by the fact that the band name is to be pronounced “sirith ungol” rather than the more accurate “kirith ungol”, the name seems more of a statement of the lyrics being in the fantasy realm, with a loose association to the LoTR books rather than them being an overarching theme. At any rate, I don’t recognize any of the lyrics on this album as being LoTR-themed, so I believe it isn’t until their next album, King of the Dead (1984), that we get to totally nerd out in that respect.

    But! Let’s nerd out about the cover! This is the third album we’ve looked at so far on The List with a cover painted by the incredible Michael Whelan (on Mastodon: @MichaelWhelan).[2] The Frost and Fire cover is a crop of Whelan’s 1977 painting titled “Stormbringer”, and was used on the cover of Michael Moorcock’s book of the same name, from his Elric of Melniboné saga. Whelan in fact would go on to provide the art for every single Cirith Ungol album, with all of the paintings also pulling double duty on a Moorcock/Elric of Melniboné book!

    Even just based on those credits alone, it’s perhaps no surprise that music journalist and musician Sarah Kitteringham – of the epic doom metal band Smoulder[3] and of BangerTV – is a giant Cirith Ungol fan. Sarah can dance circles around anyone in talking about this band (and, well, probably any doom/heavy metal metal band), and in fact wrote the liner notes for the 40th anniversary reissue of Frost and Fire! So, rather than me regaling you with any Wikipedia-level facts, I would suggest we head on over to Discogs and read through those liner notes together (click to images 2 and 3). If you’re a fan, perhaps also check out these demos and extras that were part of that anniversary reissue.

    And so concludes our mini spotlight theme. Stay frosty and/or firey, all. 🤘

    [1]Well, Charles Boyle at least says this.
    [2]The others being Meat Loaf’s Bat Out of Hell II and Sepultura’s Beneath the Remains.
    [3]Fun fact: All of Smoulder’s album covers are also done by Whelan, and both of their LPs either reference or feature Moorcock.
