Girlie Drink of the Week

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Tuesday, May 21, 2013 in BOOZE!!

I’m a tropical gal. I love tropical fruits for the most part. There are some that do wig me out, like dragon fruit (bletch) and breadfruit (urgh). And papaya is actually on that list depending on the way it is served. But for the most part I enjoy what the supermarket calls “exotic” fruits. I call them “the stuff we grew in our backyard”. Seriously, until I came to the Texas I had no idea you bought fruit at the supermarket.

Hell, I didn’t know people actually bought fruit. I thought everyone grew their own.

Anyway, one of my faves is the mango. That sumbitch is tricky to cut and eat, but once you get the hang of it, it is soooo gooood. Of course, you can buy it cut and ready to eat, but it doesn’t taste as good. If you’re not picky, then get the pre-cut stuff. It is still damn good.

Indian Summer

  • Champagne
  • 1 oz. Peach schnapps
  • Mango nectar
  • Mango pulp

In a blender, mix nectar and some mango fruit pulp (about ½ cup of each) until pureed. In a glass filled with crushed ice, add the peach schnapps, half of the puree, and then fill with champagne. Swirl with a swizzle gently until mixed thoroughly. Garnish with a lime wedge. If a blender is too much work, just use the nectar. If you can’t find the nectar, use some other juice. Laziness is the mother of invention, after all ;)

Remakes and Reboots

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Friday, May 17, 2013 in Icon, Movies, Open Thread

I hate them all.

As an avowed Trekkie™ (yes, TREKKIE. I hated TNG with a passion of three burning Betelgeuses), I am not thrilled at the whole prospect of the Star Trek reboot, much less the new flick. I’m sorry, I just can NOT deal with it. I know, I know…. not very open-minded of me. Whatever…. I am open-minded about what counts, like Steak Tartare and UGGs.

And now they have gone and remade The Evil Dead.

What the SHIT, people??

There are certain movies with which you do NOT fuck!! Gone With The Wind, Citizen Kane, shit, even that racist tripe Birth of a Nation should never, ever be remade. Oh, don’t think I didn’t see what they did with The Wizard of Oz. They knew they couldn’t remake it, so they did the next best thing: tell the story from a different point of view. Whatever. My point is, some things you just LEAVE THE FUCK ALONE!!!

What remakes or reboots have offended your sensibilities lately?? :D

Girlie Drink of the Week

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Tuesday, May 14, 2013 in BOOZE!!, Social

Sorry about not posting all this weekend. It was Mother’s Day and I took some time off from all the blogs. But far be it from me to ignore the GDOTW. I just know y’all look forward to it.

guavatini

Guavatini

  • 2 oz. Vodka
  • 2 oz. Guava juice or nectar
  • 1 oz. Dark rum
  •  Juice of fresh lime

In a shaker with ice, pour the vodka, rum, guava nectar and juice of one lime. Shake well, and pour into a martini glass. Garnish with lemon.

I like to rim the glass with sugar and use spiced rum for extra sweetness, but I figure y’all might just barf at that ;)

What a Week

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Friday, May 10, 2013 in Funny Pics, Icon, Open Thread

This week we heard from whistleblowers on what happened in Benghazi last September, found a trio of women that had been missing for over ten years sequestered in some animal’s basement, had several families rip Teh Prez a new asshole demand answers over the helicopter crash that killed members of SEAL Team 6, Boston police disclose that FBI never shared information with them over the islamojihadist asswipes, and the Dow Jones broke the 15,000 mark.

Oh, and Prince Harry is here on a tour.

what-the-hell

Seriously, what the hell?? What is so special about this week, anyway?? It’s almost like it’s going through menopause.

Oh, right…. MOTHER’S DAY!!!

Well, good luck with the rest of the week ;)

I Don’t Get It

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Sunday, May 5, 2013 in Funny Pics, Randomness

Seriously, I don’t get this holiday.

Why would this motivate you to drink beer and margaritas?

Well, it’s not like we need an excuse around here for that.

Have a great Sunday! :D

Not Enough Coffee or Jack

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Friday, May 3, 2013 in Open Thread

I am feeling really shitty today, and can’t even think of a decent open thread topic.

Shit, I can’t think coherently.

All I know is, it’s Friday, and Rebecca Black is banned from here for good reason.

llama in pool

So, feel free to talk about anything. Except Rebecca Black. And eggplant.

I’m gonna go get a third cup of coffee which I shall call Bailey ;)

Tall Tales

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Friday, April 26, 2013 in Awesomeness, Open Thread

Some of y’all may know, last weekend I got to meet Chef Curtis Stone. That was a total blast! Several friends have expressed complete jealousy over that, but it really was pure luck how we got to meet him. Thank you, Lady!

Anyway, it got me to thinking…. Mr. Stone is not the most famous person I’ve ever met. I got to meet Cheap Trick (volunteered as a backstage hand freshman year), Stevie Ray Vaughn (bus broke down at college after a concert and he came out to entertain students), Emmitt Smith (he came into my store to shop for his mom), among others (*cough* Troy Aikman *cough*). I will just say I never stood in line to meet these people. It just happened. But none of the meets were weird, save one.

meet someone famous

I was twelve at the time, and our class was on a school field trip to our state capital, to tour the Capitol. See what I did there? Anyway, I was a curious little bugger, and wanted to read every. little. plaque. posted around the place. Next thing I know, I am wandering a different floor, and in desperate need of a bathroom. While looking around for a sign, two gentlemen exit a big room and come towards me. One of them, the older one, asks if I’m ok. I tell him I am lost, and need the bathroom, so he tells me to follow them and he will show me the nearest one.

In retrospect, that sounds like the beginning of a nightmare. But this is the Capitol.

Anyway, he escorts me to the bathroom on the floor below, then gives me instructions to where my class is probably headed. A little concierge is standing nearby with her mouth open. I tell the gentleman thank you, and he tells me I am welcome and to have a great day here. Afterwards, I come out of the bathroom to find the little concierge still there. I tell her hello, and she asks me, “You know who that was??” in a very thick Asian accent.

And as I shake my head, she says, “That was the GOVERNOR!!”

That’s right: Governor Bill Clements escorted me to the bathroom. Talk about Outer Limits.

And what was your most famous weird encounter? :)

Hubble’s 23rd Birthday!!

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Sunday, April 21, 2013 in Awesomeness, Last Frontier

And we get the present!

horsehead-nebula-hubble-620

NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has snapped a spectacular new image of an iconic nebula to celebrate its 23 years of peering deep into the heavens.

The Hubble observatory, which launched on April 24, 1990, captured the Horsehead Nebula in infrared light, peering through obscuring veils of dust to reveal the object’s hidden features.

I don’t know….doesn’t look like a horse’s head to me. Looks like a man with his back turned towards me, his arms out, and head looking down. Like a Calvin Klein astronomy ad.

Hope y’all have a great Sunday!!

Memorable Babble

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Friday, April 19, 2013 in blogosphere, Open Thread

I like Fridays around the interwebtubenets. Usually those are the days for a specific theme at several blogs. For example, our friend JohnD over at Nobody Move! has Friday Movie Quote. Last week on our Open Thread, maestro semprinin  suggested that we post our favorite movie quotes. And with the amount of cinematic wordsmithery out there, this should be a piece of cake for most of y’all.

movie quotes

Yes, there are some people like that.

Anyway, rules are simple: everybody can post a limit of five quotes, giving the line, actor, and title.The more obscure, the better. Familiar quotes are fine, but make sure to quote correctly. None of this “Do you feel lucky, punk?” crap*. So, get started!!

*The actual quote is “You’ve got to ask yourself one question: ‘Do I feel lucky?’ Well, do ya, punk?”
