flying scot

2.00 oz scotch
1.00 oz red vermouth
0.25 oz simple syrup
+ a dash of bitters
+ ice cubes

shake with ice, strain into old fashioned glass.

review: tasted festive. definitively won’t make again, but the scotch-bite was real and i am sure there is a variant of this drink that i’d be more down for. really, really horrible name. there was nothing “flying” about this drink.

tonight’s cocktail ~ pineapple collins

2.00 oz white rum
1.00 oz pineapple juice
0.25 oz simple syrup
+ sofa water
+ ice cubes

mix first three ingredients into a tall glass filled with ice. stir. pour soda water until glass full.

review: not normally my kind of drink, but pretty refreshing. technically you’re supposed to use caster sugar rather than simple syrup – but i don’t have caster sugar and i think what i ended up with is less sweet overall. 👍

last night's cocktail ~ euphoria

2.0 oz white rum
1.0 oz grapefruit juice (fresh)
0.5 oz curaçao
0.5 oz pineapple juice

stirred well with ice.

review: lame name, but i see where they were coming from – the drink is a bit blue and looks sweet ungarnished. next time, i might change up the rum-grapefruit ratio, but good and hard to screw up if you've got the ingredients.

having trouble confirming that this drink exists online, but i swear it's in this book.

@aparrish i watched your 2018 deconstructconf talk today and just wanted to quickly thank you for it. it’s very good and inspiring to me. thank you ~

been working on my first web scraper.

i haven’t actually got to the scraping part yet, as i’ve been learning how to interact with postgresql without an ORM first, then modelling my DB tables. oh, and making a web UI.

next, i’ll be creating a “preview” interface so i can test what should be scraped before scheduling scrape-jobs.

my code is mega shit, but it’s been pretty fun.

what does it mean that i can't stop thinking about this markup language that barely even exists yet? what does it mean that lost sleep over it last night?
