Maybe 1/3 of straight women, 2/3 of bi women, and most gay & bi men is enough of a dating pool, though? I'm sure not near 1/3 of straight and bi guys would be into me personally.
And I can believe the 2/3 thing. I land in the 1/3 and it feels like a minority view.
My leggings do roll down like that in yoga, I'm a lady. Not very curvy though. I don't size down but in the ones that are very light & stretchy I could, usually there are 2 sizes that fit, pick the one that feels best to you.
It's funny that leggings even are gendered. I do prefer women's pants except sweatpants - mens sweatpants are better, big pockets and a deep rise. But leggings, what is the difference? Do men's have a different gusset?
Yes. Planning to, in fact. Just saving up for a year first.
Cat O' War!
I mean, a progressive here would be a centrist in most countries. So in a way, yes, trying to drag the center closer to the actual center.
I used Evan Williams Bottled-in-Bond (so cheap and so good, it's our house bourbon) and the Dolin vermouth simply because it comes in half bottles and I don't use a lot of vermouth. Someone else may be able to help if you want recommendations. I would recommend an assertive bourbon, though - with the other stuff it will be a little watery if you use a gentler one.
Social security is regressive so the floor is around 8% before FWT but you are probably right, I am coming up with 16%. Still - I don't think it's enough after fixed costs to go out to eat, unless you can get 4 wage earners in your household (which is not impossible, I did, and some of my kids did as well)
Are you trying to ask how many hours of work it takes to buy a reasonable meal at a restaurant? Minimum wage in Florida is $15. You can buy something that would make a day's food or one cheap meal (without a drink) at a cheap restaurant for that one hour of work, but of course we pay taxes so the net in the paycheck doesn't equal $15. Also you can't just exclude housing like that. Nobody can use groceries if they aren't housed.
At $15/hour and 25% going to taxes, gross about $2,000/month. Net about $1500 Average rent here 2,500 so with one roommate, rent is still taking most of that.
Sazerac, you can make that with cognac not rye if you want something cognac forward and boozy and interesting.
You can use it instead of bourbon in a paper plane, but change the proportions from equal parts to 2x as much cognac, or in other words half of everything else.
Sidecar is great.
Best way to serve it, alone? I like on a big clear ice cube, that's how I like anything strong tasting.
Sexually Transmitted Diseases. All of them. I would love to know a world without them.
I am so confused by his looks. Like, I have at least 15 years on him but he looks older than I do? He is aging like people in the 1940s &50s, does he smoke? Or it's just the evil aging him?
Good luck! It's mostly bourbon, and was sweet even with the increased lemon, you could safely reduce the amount of orange stuff and it would still be plenty sweet.
Grande Garrone is an orange liqueur made with cognac, I like it, or you could try making your own (not for this round, I mean in general) to get one you like. Could burn some of the peels to get a more complex flavor, or use tangelos, customize it.
Kimchi looks skeptical but it's good.
2 oz bourbon
1 oz orange liqueur
1/2 oz sweet vermouth
1/2 oz (I used 3/4oz) lemon juice
Shake all with ice.
Got near a hundred mini watermelon this year, the very late ones were no good but for a couple months they were glorious. Mini love variety, it was a brutally hot summer and they flourished, I let them take over the whole garden.
Two plants survived being overrun by watermelon, the asparagus and the hong tsoi. I'm sort of resting it until "spring" which is planted around Feb here.
Very basic scoring this time. One line one x. I was happy to find some "golden whole wheat flour" yesterday.
350g Golden whole wheat flour
650g strong white bread flour
20g sel gris
675g tap water
200g starter made with all purpose white flour and tap water, hydration 100%.
Just mix, rest, stretch and fold 4x at 30 minute intervals. Bulk rise took awhile, maybe 4 hours this time (it varies, one hour to 8 - is a condition not a time). Split and bench rest then shaped, into cloth lined baskets wrapped in plastic bags, overnight in the refrigerator. Baked cold bread in very hot closed pans 20 minutes then open lids and 20 minutes more. 450F.
(Sorry for the mixed measurements - I had a bunch of egg white so had to weigh out 1 egg worth)
35 grams egg white
1 Tbsp guava jelly or guava paste
1 oz good mezcal
1/2 oz over proof reposado tequila
1/2 oz Aperol
3/4 oz lemon juice
ETA I failed to list one step. First: whisk or muddle the jelly and booze to incorporate it.
Shake without ice, then with ice. Just as good as it sounds and so beautiful.
It's not a looker, but tastes great.
2 oz tequila (any)
1 oz lime juice
1 oz creme de cassis
2-3 oz ginger beer (I used 1 oz ginger syrup, 3 oz fizzy water, 2 squirts of fire tincture)
Result of googling "what else can I make with tequila and lime"
Husband is having a Stella, that's the bottle in the background.
He's up to 7.5 lb from under 1 lb when we found him. (From 300 grams of baby to 3.5kg of kitten in only a few months, crazy.)
Here is a "before", the day my kids texted to say they found the source of the meowing I had heard before work. Just a wee handful. Always bold as anything though, he was never afraid of us or our 75lb mutt of a dog.
1 oz barrel strength bourbon
1 oz barrel strength reposado tequila
1 scant oz Aperol with a splash of Campari to make an ounce.
1 oz Amaro Nonino
1 oz grapefruit juice
1 oz lemon juice
Shake together with ice. If you are somewhere it's not still summer, serve up in a chilled coupe. Tart enough for a sugared rim. But it's still hot here, so everything is iced. This is sort of 1.5 servings, I just find it fussy to measure .75 of an ounce. Equal parts is the key.

Equal parts tequila, mezcal, Apricot liqueur and lime, half part Aperol works best IMO, any more Aperol and it gets too sweet.
This is a pantry recipe for me as I keep Giffard Abricot in stock always. You want a good apricot in this, I think passion fruit or peach would be equally delicious but make sure it's made from real fruit. Also can sub Campari for the Aperol if you want a little more bitter.
