Proof of Life...
170 beats per minute. At rest... Was I scared? Was? Still am... It's been a roller-coaster of a week and a half, actually more like a decade of descent, but it came to a head last Monday and while I know it could be a whole lot worse than it is, nothing prepares you for the very first time you truly stare at your own mortality in the mirror and not be sure you're coming out the other side of this one to the good. I've been struggling with a lot of physical pain lately, the old flat feet giving me trouble, which I thought was leading to my extreme tiredness and shortness of breath, just another thing to power through and get past, I've always prized myself on my high pain tolerance, even though I always knew, in the back of my mind, that it wasn't smart to ignore your body's warning signs when they started going off like a 5 alarm fire bell, but that's who I am and how I got here I suppose. After a couple weeks of this kind of feeling, last Monday I finally broke down and hobbled

Cocktail Recipe - The Cosmonaut
The story There’s plenty of cocktails that are variations on previous ones. Ingredients or methods tinkered with until the bartender is satisfied he has improved upon the original. The Cosmonaut is the only one I can think of that was invented as a reaction against a popular cocktail. Sasha Petraske was a New York based bar owner who had earned his place in cocktail history well before his untimely passing at the age of 43. He opened Milk & Honey on new year’s eve 1999 and more than any other is considered the first of the modern speakeasy style bars. Any time you have to go downstairs into a windowless bar with 1920s stylings, you have Petraske to thank for the enjoyable experience that awaits. Milk & Honey operated a set of charming house rules including ‘no shouting’ and ‘gentlemen will not introduce themselves to ladies. Ladies, feel free to start a conversation. If a man you don;t know speaks to you, please left your chin slightly and ignore him’ Amongst Petraske’s legacy du
