There are plenty of things in this world to look forward to:
- The weekend
- A great movie release
- Your birthday
The list can go on and on. Instead, I'd like to focus on one of the things that many of us look forward to in different ways...and it isn't just a human or earth thing either...
It's our drinks.
See, most folks look forward to that first cup or three of coffee, cappuccino, or cafe au lait in the morning.
Another drink that some folks look forward to is a nice shot of whiskey. Best be careful, it might put hair on your chest.
Getting supernatural, blood is the drink of choice for those of the vampire persuasion. If one is of the "let's not drink up all the blood of our neighbors" mindset, there's Tru Blood.
If you have a god-like need to quench your thirst, ambrosia is said to give satisfaction and immortality.
If you're ever out on the spaceways, zipping from one planetary system to the other, take a tip from the
Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy and be careful of the Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster. I understand the effects of this drink can cause you to be merrier than anything or anyone in your wildest imagination.
As for me, a nice glass of wine will do.
What about you? Do you have a special drink that you look forward to, perhaps a concoction of your own making that friends enjoy at gatherings, or something that brings that long, exhausting day to a nice closure? Heard of any "out there" drinks of interest?
Please share in the comments :-)
I remember when they had "for human consumption" bottles of Tru Blood. I always wanted to try it. For me, I prefer hot tea.
ReplyDeleteMilkshakes count as drinks, right? I do love a lovely cold vanilla shake on a hot day... or a cold one! Otherwise I'm pretty boring when it comes to drinks. Water all day every day for me.
ReplyDeleteThere's not much I can drink because of a medical condition, but before that derailed everything I was a big fan of Mountain Dew. (I miss it)
ReplyDeleteYou know I look forward to a good bear.
ReplyDeleteAlthough my life has taken a nose dive at present, yes there are many things in life that is special......and I am going to enjoy them.
ReplyDeleteLoved your blog and post.

Haha, this is so cute, Angela! I like a wet cappuccino (less foam). And I love wine, but my go-to is a little Jameson (Irish Whiskey) with some dark chocolate.
