Friday Night Vodka Buzz. Ask me anything. [View all]

Two shots to get the party started. Now a McClelland cocktail. Sloe gin, triple sec, and orange bitters. Yummy! Make a damned good Halloween cocktail. Thick and blood-red.

Had a nice half-day at work today. Hope everyone has a relaxing weekend.

I love you all…
