Oh to be dependant on caffiene but also tired of most energy drinks I enjoy.

If you drink caffiene, what's your favorite(s)? Tell me in replies or reblogs!

I was a huge fan of Nos for SO LONG, lately I've been into the higher caffeine drinks like Reign Storm (Kiwi Apple and Strawberry Apricot specifically) and I kinda liked Celsius (Oasis Vibe and Tropical Vibe) for a bit before it made my body feel weird.

I love flavored red bull too, also all these drinks have to be in a cup over ice preferably.

(Obligatory mention to vanilla coke, fave soda when I want it)

[softgrungeprophet]

got a bottle of that ginger sprite cause i was curious, not immune to capitalism, etc and it’s like......... it tastes like sprite that briefly contained a piece of ginger

i mean, it’s fine, it’s sprite and i like sprite alright but i expected a little bit more ginger XD

So! You not really an alcohol drinker, or maybe you don’t like the stuff, but you’re out somewhere and trying to decide how to have some and not absolutely hate your drink either. Maybe you’d like to actually enjoy the taste of your drink! Even if you’re not looking to get drunk or even tipsy. Maybe you’re just social drinking once in a blue moon.

But being a newbie, or having only had terrible-tasting alcohol, you have NO idea what to get. Steph is here to help for newbies! Or people who don’t give a damn and just want to have a nice drink that actually tastes good for once, and not in a “oh this very bitter and tart wine is so sweet” way. I am myself now very sensitive to alcohol as a flavor, so the majority of these have Steph’s seal of “shouldn’t taste like trying to stomach down cold medicine and should actually be tasty to normal people who don’t drink alcohol”. 

Please note to use this advice responsibly. This is not to help you get drunk, only to help you find a drink you probably won’t have to gag down and can thus enjoy the rest of your night if you’re choosing to partake in alcohol. Imbibing alcohol is a responsibility, and not one to take lightly.

“Girly drinks” are your friends. If you’re young or you don’t drink very much, your tastebuds are probably going to be oriented more toward sweet flavors and less toward bitter flavors. You’re looking for high sugar content baby. (And if you ARE looking to get drunk, this will get you drunk much faster than a whiskey, no matter what your hillbilly uncle says otherwise. that is the entire point of “girly drinks.”)

Most bars, pubs, restaurants and other places often have house drinks or cocktails in their drink menu that they make most often. You’re looking for drinks with ingredients like sweet fruits, like cherries, apricots, watermelon, mango, blue raspberry, lemonade, or novelty things like chocolate or butterscotch or cake or whatever. If anything, just ask the bartender or server if they’re not busy! The bartender will for sure know if it’s sweet, and can probably point you in the right direction if you tell them the flavors you usually like, or what you’re looking for. Yes, you’ll look like a newbie. That’s not the point. The point is to get a drink you’re not gonna gag on and that’s the price you pay.

Only somewhat related, but if you’ve never ordered drinks from a place with a bar, they’ll ask if you want to put it on a tab. That just means, “Do you want me to keep your order open so you can add more drinks later, or is this a one-time deal?” They’ll probably ask for a name then. If your friend’s paying, you give their name.

Typically, stay away from beer. Some rare people enjoy the taste of beer from the start, most do not. If you smell a glass and it smells putrid, steer clear of it. You ain’t gonna like it no matter what you put in it.

Most wines will also not be your friend. To those who do not regularly drink wine, it’s going to be impossibly bitter and feel like it’s drying your throat out despite being a liquid. (That’s the “dry” quality they talk about.)

On the contrary, however, wine spritzers, mixers, and punches? Those are your FRIENDS. These are legit going to taste like juice or soda or punch. They also tend to be lighter on alcoholic content (hence why commonly used for parties), and big on sugar. Spritzers are wine and soda, mixers are wine and some kind of liquor (usually a very sweet or fruity kind like a lemon or strawberry vodka), and wine punches can be as sweet or sour or fruity or tropical as you want. You’ll usually see them referred to as white or red sangrias.

Note: this is sort of why these can actually be MORE dangerous than like having straight-up liquor. These types of drinks with low alcohol and heavy sugar make it very, very easy to drink a lot of them, and have some extra surprise drunk times sneak up on you later because you drank more than you realized. 

My rule for safe drinking? One drink per hour, follow with water. You will typically not get more than buzzed, and will stay sufficiently hydrated.

Spritzers, mixers, and punches are part of a larger group called cocktails. Cocktails being just “non-alcoholic drink + alcohol of some kind.” Rum and coke? Cocktail. Bellini? Cocktail.

Champagne cocktails are very often sweet, bubbly drinks. They are Steph’s fave for a reason. Mimosas are perhaps the most famous champagne cocktail. Those are made with orange juice and champagne. Can be surprisingly potent.

When getting cocktails with liquors/spirits, like vodka, rum, and so forth, you will want to stay away from particular ones that are known for very bitter tastes and hard kicks. A bunch also uh, in general taste like the inside of a barrel. 

Typically, whiskey, gin, and tequilas are going to be very bitter and gross, and overpower whatever they’re put in. If you like really sour though, tequila goes well with margaritas, which are a lime drink that mostly covers the tequila taste. 

Vodka and Rum are typically going to be stomached better, vodka usually being the easiest of all. Both tend to mix well with fruity girly drinks, the kind you’re looking for. Very potent, so imbibe carefully. In most drinks though, you’re still going to get that “cold medicine aftertaste” that clears your sinuses and sometimes it’s just too powerful for the drink. You can usually smell these pretty strongly before you actually drink, and that’ll give you a pretty good idea of the burn you’re gonna feel in a moment. Both are also good in sweet minty drinks, if you like those. 

Surprisingly good drink for newbies: mead. It can be a little difficult to get a hold of, but it’s getting more popular. It’s made from honey, so it’s gonna be sweet usually by default. Peach mead? Hell yeah. Peach and honey taste.

Absinthe is actually very tasty, and no it will not make you hallucinate. It actually tastes a lot like licorice candy. Comes in fun colors, and with a sugar cube you dissolve into it on a special spoon. VERY hard to get in the US though, only a few bars sell it as a drink. Like I think it’s literally just a handful of bars across the entire fifty states that have absinthe and absinthe cocktails. If you’ve already tasted Jaegermeister, it tastes like that. I wouldn’t call it a newbie drink, but imo you’ll still enjoy your drink if George just feel like being special today.

Hard ciders have also been hailed as great for newbies, and usually very sweet. They’ve always been hit or miss with me; sometimes, yeah, they’re delicious, and other times they just taste like vaguely-fruity beer. Which is not great.

Beer, to me, tastes like old socks. So y’know, vaguely fruity old socks.

Stay away from most shots. This is usually pure liquor, and it is not pleasant. Especially if you have a small mouth like mine and sometimes can’t do shots in one go. Exceptions are novelty mixers, like those weird cake shots. 

Cake-flavored vodka is not as good as you think it sounds.

So here’s some drinks that, as someone who’s tasted a bunch, I can tell you they’ll probably be easier to stomach. Some I actually enjoy as drinks.

Rumchata is horchata with rum in it, so a milky, cinnamon-y kind of drink. Good for newbies. 

Kahlua & cream: coffee and cream drink

Mudslide: coffee and cream and irish liqueur; honestly best as a mudslide milkshake. holy shit. that’s heaven.

Bourbon milkshake: honestly if any place sells milkshakes and has a bar, you can ask to get a shot of bourbon added to your milkshake. VERY yummy flavor pair, especially vanilla milkshakes with bourbon.

White russian: kahlua and cream and add vodka

Red russian: vodka with cherry liquor

Dirty Shirley: grenadine (if this is listed as an ingredient that usually means a very sweet drink), soda, maraschino cherries, vodka

Bellini (bars that know what this is are sort of rare, you’ll probably have to explain it): peach juice and champagne

Mimosa: orange juice and champagne (acceptable for breakfast parties!)

Sangria (you usually can’t order this one from bars unless it’s like a special sangria night; this drink is usually found more at parties and social functions): fruit punch + wine + soda if the hosts are younger

Strawberry lemonade vodka: strawberry lemonade and vodka

Malibu cocktail: rum (usually Malibu Rum, hence the name), cranberry juice, pineapple juice.

Blue hawaiian: coconut creme liqueur, pineapple juice, white rum, blue curacao (blue-colored orange liqueur; it’s very fun to mix and also usually means a very sweet drink).

Mojito: rum, soda, lime juice, mint

Mai tai: pineapple juice, lime juice, orange juice, grenadine, white and dark rum

Lemon drop martini: vodka, triple sec (another orange liqueur), sugar and fresh lemon juice

Pina Colada: blended slushy drink made with creme de coconut, rum, and ice

Chocolate martinis: irish cream liqueur, chocolate liqueur, and vodka

Frozen daiquiris: slushy frozen drinks made with fruit juice and rum

Irish coffee: the one place where you actually might enjoy whiskey for those who don’t like it. It’s just that: coffee and usually a whiskey liqueur, like baileys. Creamy, warm, good for cold nights.

Peppermint schnapps hot chocolate: hot chocolate with a peppermint zip. If making yourself, make a big mug first and only add like a capful of peppermint schnapps, it can very easily overpower the chocolate taste. Also creamy and yummy for cold nights. 

Hot buttered rum: an intensive recipe, but a very yummy, creamy, warm, butterscotchy drink that you stick a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of. Hard to get tastier than that. I’m very certain Butterbeer was originally based off of this.

There were a bunch of drinks that are typically considered “girly” for high sugar contents, but having had them before, they were just not sweet. Martinis are usually very dry and bitter no matter the fruit, long island iced teas only taste good if you like iced tea, cosmopolitans (cosmos) are heavy on the vodka flavor, as are watermelon vodkas and alcohol-infused watermelons, and a number of colorful, blended ice drinks that are usually listed are heavy on the alcohol burn, enough to drown out the flavor.

Hope this was helpful! Remember, yes, you might look like a newbie, but the bartender wants to help you find a drink just for you! Ask them questions (when they’re not busy), and they can totally help you out (most just like to help, but at the very least, helping you might mean some extra money at the end of the night). And if they’re real nice they might give you little samples so that you can have a taste for yourself before buying the whole drink.

My Top 10 Albums of 2019

Wordpress version

Pleased to say I had trouble fitting this into a top ten. While I hope for some changes to the trends with the new decade coming, this was a great year for overall quality music and I look forward to finding more. In the meantime, here’s what I liked best. I should note the final order is a bit rough.

I list some EPs and honorable mentions below my #1 as well. SO many albums sat in a ‘close but not quite’ spot for me this time, but the sheer amount is certainly something.

10. SODA Lite - Vale & Stone / Soda Lite continues to make the most cleansing ‘nu age’ around, complete with synth mallets that make it sound like a molten forest you can drink. Listen to this outside! Listen to “Vale & Stone”

9. Caroline Polachek - Pang: Not every day you hear vocal sky-dives like hers on the same album as A.G. Cook, a yacht rock update and a sweet ballad that sounds like new age Imogen Heap... Which is why this is good. Listen to “Go As a Dream”

8. Teebs - Anicca: I worry his palette is getting plainer (not enough synths and bells, too much guitar!) but we just don’t have anyone in e-music like Teebs. Listening to him feels like napping in a painter’s garden and you can’t tell the difference between his world and yours. Full review here. Listen to “Marcel”

7. Sudan Archives - Athena: Sudan fuses organic e-music and her own calming voice with truly epic violin riffs like a brew in her garden. Interesting to hear the influence of Sudanese fiddle in this context. Listen to “Confessions”

6. Karen O & Danger Mouse - Lux Prima: My favorite modern punk singer teams with a Gorillaz producer and 70′s soundtrack fan. Somehow their pairing sounds too plain here and there, but they’re never low on ideas and sometimes fascinating. Listen to “Nox Lumina”

5. Nonlocal Forecast (Angel Marcloid) - Bubble Universe!: Colorful new agey jazz fusion enamored with the digital 90′s. Somehow equal parts giddy and serene, a real mood-booster if you find digital synths and/or MIDI game soundtracks fun at all. Listen to “The Evolutionary Game”

4. Angel Olsen - All Mirrors: String section takes an expressive voice beyond with a knack for powerful slow-burns. Don’t miss this if you like baroque/chamber pop (or the idea of it, even!). Listen to “Summer”

2/3. Ioanna Gika - Thalassa: Layer upon layer of swooning vocals fit for This Mortal Coil and complete with strings, synths and urgent rhythms; a must-hear for anyone wanting a more flexible take on the 80s goth trademarks. Listen to “Swan”

2/3. La Feline - Vie Future: Imagine if a dreamy French siren like Mylene Farmer or Camille worked with Broadcast or Ghost Box producers. Or maybe a floating forest in an old sci-fi movie. That’s this album. Listen to “Visions de dieu”

1. Kelsey Lu - Blood: Beyond promising and multi-talented new artist you may know from collabs with Blood Orange and Solange; great cello as expected with sublime vocals, ghostly folk ballads, eclectic pop songs, an electronic 10cc cover and more surprises. Listen to “Rebel”

EPs:

Brothertiger - A Chain of Islands / Chillwave, synth-pop. Listen to “Prideland”

Flying Lotus - INFINITY Infinitum / Nu jazz, spiritual jazz, neo soul. Listen to “MmmHmm”

Natasha Kmeto - Verse/Versus / Alt R&B, neo soul, synth-pop. Listen to “Count To 5″

Hinako Omori - Voyage / Progressive electronic, ambient. Listen to "Teleport"

Sulli - Goblin / K-pop, synth-pop. Listen to “Dorothy”

Suiyoubi no Campanella & Oorutaichi - Yakushima Treasure / J-folk, avant folk.

Honorable mentions:

Bat For Lashes - Lost Girls / Art pop, synth-pop, dreamy, fantasy. Listen to “Jasmine”

CFCF - Liquid Colours / Drum and bass, new age, 90s spa music? Listen to “Green District”

Helado Negro - This Is How You Smile / Indie electronic, dream pop, folktronica. Listen to “Please Won’t Please”

Jorja Chalmers - Human Again / Electronic, ambient, soundtrack-ish. Listen to “She Made Him Love Again”

Maria Usbeck - Envejeciendo / Synth-pop, downtempo, tropical. Listen to “Retirement Home”

Natalie Rose Lebrecht - Mandarova Rose / Neo-medieval folk, ethereal wave. Listen to “Lost“

Shura - Forevher / Sophisti-pop, R&B. Listen to “Skyline, Be Mine”

SPELLLING - Mazy Fly / Cowgirl synth witch music? Listen to “Hard To Please”

Steve Hauschildt - Nonlin / Space music, prog electronic, ambient. Listen to “Attractor B”

Tei Shi - La Linda / R&B pop, downtempo, dreamy. Listen to “We”

Voyage Futur - Secret Earth / New age. Listen to “Eternal Dawn”

There's more. I could add Lana, Lil Simz, Weyes Blood, Holly, Lizzo and other cult hits, but this is long enough kept to my darkhorse faves. Stay tuned for my 2019 playlist for their proper acknowledgement.

[princess-hope-selfships]

Hey I'm heading to a dental appointment aaaand nervous! It is just an examination and cleaning, but still NERVOUS!!! Plus I gotta do some financial nonsense bc new insurance which ALSO MAKES ME NERVOUS!!!!!!

So I'm gonna list the flavors my faves would vape bc I have been nervous vaping the whole ride here.

Connor: tobacco flavors, some light fruity flavors sometimes, like peach or strawberry. Prefers savory deep flavors like tobacco and coffee. Specifically a bourbon spice flavor my irl partner has

Demyx: literally vapes flavors he doesn't like sometimes for the aesthetic. Does a lot of "tropical" themed flavors. Likes fruit punch and starfruit

Sidon: light fruity flavors such as peach, lemonade, strawberry

Alastor: soda flavors, cherry and chocolate, savory flavors such as fruit jams

King Dice: refuses to vape. Thinks it's dumb, and much prefers his cigars

Lestat: prefers strawberry or alcohol themed flavors and only buys ridiculously expensive flavors. Like those bottles that cost over $100

Bowser: heavy fruit flavors! Cherry, watermelon... ........peach 👀 Also likes dessert flavors themed after pies or cakes.

[sammnnn]

@shywaters​ tagged me, they’re a cool person and I’ve been following them for years now 1) What is your favorite beverage? Coffee, Coca Cola, or Cream soda 2) Favorite book and why? One of the most influential books was Surrender by Sonya Hartnett. I don’t remember much since I read it in high school but it influenced my taste in films and TV shows. 3) Is there a song you listen to a lot, but don’t know why yet? Hm...I know why i listen to songs like I do so there’s none that I don’t know why I listen to but right now I’ve been listening to Elegia by the New Order a lot. 4) A pet peeve people don’t pick up on? I hate the sound of chewing but people think it’s funny even though it makes me want to actually scream. I also hate when people laugh at me when I’m being serious.  5) The most amazing place you’ve ever been? I went to the Biltmore mansion when I was younger. It was absolutely gorgeous and part of why old architecture is so interesting to me.  6) Fave video game? I have a lot of favorites but right now the Mass Effect trilogy is one of my absolute favorites. Such a good story with amazing characters and a killer soundtrack. Silent Hill 2 of course with its amazing story and Spec Ops: The Line with its take on war. Seriously if you haven’t played Spec Ops please do, it is one of the most haunting games I’ve ever played and has elements of horror which work so well in a game about war. Not your typical war game, don’t be fooled. 7) You are stuck on a tropical island with enough supplies to last you the 3 days it will take to rescue you. What 4 items you own do you take with you? There’s no reception or wifi: My laptop for games, a generator, a sketchbook, and a little portable stove thing. 8) A movie is made about your life, what do you hope it to have in it? And what genre? A happy ending. And probably drama with bits of comedy. 9) You have 2 days to spend anywhere in the world, where would you go? Italy. I’ve always wanted to go to the Colosseum as cliche as that sounds. Or Venice 10) What is one thing you got into that you thought you’d never? Livestreaming. Sometimes I have a hard time paying attention to those 30 minute youtube videos but I can watch livestreams by certain streamers (especially jerma) like it’s nothing. 11) Is there a movie you quote all the time in real life? Haha Austin Powers. “I’m shaking in my little moon boots” and “Oh I haven’t laughed like that since I was a little girl” are very quotable imo. ya don’t gotta do it but if ya wanna here ya go @dancingina-minor @sweatermutt @shittymeatball @holy-mackerel-the-3rd

Right!

I’m back from Canada - it was so great, and I loved it and I’m so sad to be back here and working again.

Highlights of my trip include:

Meeting @m0th3rw4r - the reason for my holiday in the first place and the most welcoming, awesome person in the world. The only person who could come close would be her husband. They made me feel so great and happy that I’m already planning my next trip to see them.

a two day marvel movie marathon

This huge egg:

watching an episode of Shadowhunters and being able to go over every single look with someone who also gets it

Tim Hortons Tropical Ice Blast and Honey Crullers

Playing ‘ticket to ride’ and getting irrationally angry over @m0th3rw4r and her placement of the ONE TILE I NEEDED. 

Canada day, with 1 (one) rude canadian, a pelican and a giant dick in the sky 

Soda Jerks burger, Five Guys hotdog, Icecream cake and Poutine 

The RCMP museum which has some seriously cool shit in it - and the gift shop was awesome

Getting to see the church where @m0th3rw4r got married

The bison

The fact that every tree in Regina was planted

Feeling confident enough to wear shorts

Buying my new fave item of clothing: Parcs Canada t-shirt which I have already worn and washed 3 times

Being in on the ground floor of one of the best books you're going to read in 2018, I shit you not

3 rollercoasters (my first ever rollercoasters!) 

Mini golf - and glow in the dark mini golf at that!

A genuine sense of comfort and relaxation I didn’t know I needed

Understanding non-fizzy lemonade

So many nerdy shops!

and meeting this cutie:

[deanshomestead]

“Will it Go Round Circle”

So anyway, I love that song even though I always thought it said “Wheel” not “Will”, you learn something new everyday or at least you should– no matter how trivial and mindless.

We all have those friends that can really screw up song lyrics now don’t we?? One of my fave’s was my ex-husband (now know this he was no very worldly he had older parents and they really kept him sheltered). So you knows the AC/DC song “Dirty Jobs” Dirty jobs and their done dirt cheap etc etc. I am laughing SO hard right now…ok…prepare yourself for “Doctor Deets and the Thunder Chief” WHAT????? Oh, so one more totally unrelated rant but regarding this same wonderful person out there that I temporarily corrupted. He thought you could get pulled over for an open container for soda…..OMG make it stop now I am laughing so hard I cannot see the keyboard and I have tears flowing out of my eyes. Oh wait hold on here we go again….another ex used to think Huey Lewis “Walking on a thin line” Was waiting in the beer line….Where did I find these people!!!

Ok so now everybody should have a good mojo happening after that uproarious adventure in my warped mind.

I am real happy to see we are growing at a pretty good pace, I am glad you all hopefully enjoy my mindless ah-ha ramblings with an occasional home decor item from my store or the adventures here at the homestead.

I started this post yesterday then got all caught up in errands, doctor appointments and various other chores. I am so excited this morning the tile is starting to get hung in our bathroom!! You must understand we live in FL, we have been without an indoor bathroom since the end of January and have been using what I refer to as a port-o-let with a shower! It is a very very small bathroom in our garage. It is ungodly small and hot. Put it this way when you use the toilet you have to sit sideways otherwise you will bash your arm, face or something into the tiny tiny sink!! Hubs and I are both praying this bathroom is done soon, hopefully before June 1st.

Now to something business related. We have just added quite a few bedding sets to our store and more will be added in the coming days. We have a variety of styles, something for every decor.
