visits and cherries

[branchandroot]

My parents dropped by to visit, today. We had a nice chat from the length of my entry stairs away. They brought me tequila, and I sent them off with muffins, which is really just such a capsule of the current world that I have to laugh.

Also, Zingerman's now has cocktail cherries which are smoked cherries in whiskey syrup, and I may just have to invent a cocktail worthy of getting some.

You do, you very much do have to invent that cocktail.

I'm thinking scotch with a squeeze of orange, garnished with orange peel (or alternately a tiny dash of campari). Suitable for all seasons!

That sounds both warming and refreshing.
