I found half a bottle of Dewars ......

and some Aberfeldy

Dewars is the moral and ethical equivalent of Bell's, but slightly more expensive. Perfect for this. Aberfeldy I've actually had versions that were palatable. Not exciting, but palatable. Just.

Dewars was my first "scotch." Drank tons of it at a local watering-hole before I was introduced to single-malt. When said watering-hole closed, I liberated a heavy-duty rocks glass that nearly all my whisky gets poured into to this day.

You can use any of my fancy-schmancy new rock glasses, but leave that scuffed-up, old friend of mine alone.

I flipped a coin .... Aberfeldy it is .... sigh ...

Milk, is that funny?

Bookpossum · 01-05-2018, 05:11 AM

As long as it doesn’t taste funny, it should be fine!

Green tea in my after dinner cup.

astrangerhere · 01-05-2018, 08:02 AM

10F out with a 4F wind chill. Coffee. Lots of it.

Difflugia · 01-05-2018, 10:57 AM

Pure Leaf Iced Tea blend

DiapDealer · 01-05-2018, 10:59 AM

Pretty sure the bourbon saved my life last night.
Caribou coffee from the work Keurig is doing the same after dressing sidewalks at -3°F this morning. Brrrrr! All done, though.

Quake1028 · 01-05-2018, 05:23 PM

Coke Zero.

cromag · 01-05-2018, 06:15 PM

First tea, and then I need to hit the road. It's very cold out there.

Cinisajoy · 01-05-2018, 06:37 PM

Hot tea.

DiapDealer · 01-06-2018, 08:53 AM

Fresh ground Peet's Big Bang. Best cup of coffee all week.

poohbear_nc · 01-06-2018, 11:06 AM

Poor pooh! One can hope the liquid is at least stimulating or nutritious. And that you'll recover sooner rather than later!

A large mug of Murchie's Balmoral Blend this morning. But no orange juice.

My case of oranges didn't come in yesterday (ferry problems), but should be in today.
