THE HEAT IS SPIKING TODAY, WARM - HOT ALL OVER the country and ...

ALSO A REAL DRY SPELL, almost a drought and my lawn has some brown spots,
something I cannot recall in many years. I mowed it anyway as we were
having guests for Sunday night and it sure did look nice freshly-mowed even
though it was a bit browner than usual. I also weeded and so the front and
back yards looked pretty grand if I do say so myself.

I ENJOYED SOME CLONTARF 1014 Irish Whiskey Classic Blend Triple Distilled,
$19.99, on Saturday night after a busy week and an equally busy Saturday
here. As I told my neighbor it the beautiful night that awakened me and
refreshed me. So did the taste of this CLONTARF : flavorful, just enough
fire and flame and liquid energy to keep things flowing smoothly on a
near-perfect night where there were no mosquitoes, a cooling and gentle
breeze, some stars out, just a few, perfect, and it was a great way to
wind-down, smile, relax and feel one with nature and one's natural self.

WE ALSO ENJOYED the TIERRAS Tequila Blanco made from 100% Agave, USDA
Organic, $36.99, 40% alcohol by volume, blended with fresh lime and lemon
juices to make a refreshing Sunday night mixed drink to enjoy around the
fire I built in our fire pit on our deck out back that was ready to burn
brightly as the cooling effects of the TIERRAS Blanco Tequila soothed and
cheered us all after a grilled meal and lively, bright, animated
conversation, laughs and many smiles, too. It was something my son created
for us as he had learned it from a class in the Big Apple on Mixology and
the Art Of Mixed Drinks. I give him and the drink an A+, and this TIERRAS
Blanco is very special indeed. Eddie Ofori introduced it here to us several
years ago. Thank you Eddie.

HEY, LET'S NOW TALK BEERS. ALES W/ Santos :

1) ' Endless River ' Kolsch-Style Ale from MOTHER EARTH, On Special
for $12.99 a 6-pack, 4.9% alcohol by volume, : " A clean, crisp beer,
Kolsch offers a very slight fruity flavor and aroma. It is light gold in
color., with a delicate head. This light-bodied beer appeals to nearly
everyone who samples it./ Expect to enjoy a slight tang in the finish. "
Cheers!

2) Oak Aged India Pale Ale ' RUMBLE ' from the GREAT DIVIDE BREWING
CO. in Denver, Colorado, On Special for $11.99 a 6-pack of 12-ounce
bottles, : " RUMBLE IPA is an American IPA with subtle nuances. Brewed with
heavy handed additions of Pacific Northwest hops, this beer is gently aged
in French and American oak resulting in a wonderful balance of bitterness,
caramel sweetness, vanilla, and undertones of pine and citrus. " They say :
