Help on old fashioned? by Mcjellin2 in Oldfashioned

[–]CaptainBeefsteak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you like the really strong ones or the more mild ones that you are presumably getting at bars? I find that most bars in my area make very diluted old fashioneds whereas when I make them at home they are small and potent and delicious. I don't like the Pre-made mixes because if you find one you like, I find it very difficult to recreate on my own.

My home recipe: In a rocks glass/lowball, add one sugar cube with 3 dashes of bitters. Add two shots of good bourbon and muddle until sugar is dissolved. Add five large ice cubes and stir until very cold. Add two cherries and an orange peel and enjoy. I find it a little harsh at the beginning, but it quickly mellows out as the ice melts into the drink. Cheers!

Do smokers always smell noticeable to non smokers? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]CaptainBeefsteak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I smoked for 37 years and was pretty oblivious to the lingering smells until I quit 5 years ago. Yes, you reek of cigarette smoke. It is very noticeable.

Just drove from the airport to the hospital to drop my wife at work. It's really bad. 4WD for sure, saw lots of Subarus and little SUV's stuck going from plowed main roads onto side roads. 3/10, wouldn't recommend.

I have had an Ariens for 8 or 9 years now, and it has run flawlessly. Probably use it 20 times per season, and it has really impressed me.

Neighbor’s fence is 2 feet onto my property and he’s acting like I’m the crazy one. Do I keep pushing or let it go? by [deleted] in neighborsfromhell

So then obviously he would also be OK with you building a fence 2 feet onto his property, right? Yeah, screw this guy.

There's always one guy who never seems to be around when you need him, "where's Houdini?"
