Bushmill's, in honor of St. Patrick's day. Had to enjoy a wee bit of an Irish dram on a cold (and it is cold and icy and snowy here now) and bleary St. Pat's day eve.
And it is a Friday, have not broken a mirror all week, and we have not been attacked by a swarm of locuts in ever so long, and so it seems like a propitious time to open a bottle of the elixir.
Thought of Bailey's but it goes down just too easily. Bushmill's is sipping stuff.
It is a fine whisky, but I do prefer the other Celtic aqua vit.
And would love to celebrate the day of the saint of Scotland, St. Andrew. It falls on November 30th (why? I have no idea.) but we have not taken to that day, althought the Scots have and continue to do so. I suppose we just don't need another day of partying a few days after Turkey Day.
And so, with angst over a lack of a St. Andrew's day celebration, I raise my glass to St. Patrick.
Now I think I will take my wee dram, open the shutters, and watch the Devil's dandruff fall on my lawn.
Happy St. Patrick's day, y'all.
