Oh, and that's not actually absinthe... I'm still saving that for a special occasion. It's just creme de menthe with a little water.
I received a lovely absinthe set for my birthday back in December. I know that traditionally you aren't supposed to light the sugar cube on fire, but sometimes you just want a little spectacle. This time the sugar cube broke apart and fell through the absinthe spoon whilst still on fire, setting the entire glass ablaze. Not a bad effect, there.
Marcel and James remembering an earlier 'infrathin' adventure. There was drink involved (as if).
Bottle, with uncharacteristic crystal stopper, provided by Morandi.
Artist unknown-ish.

I got my head but my head is unraveling
cant keep control can't keep track of where it's traveling
I got my heart but my heart's no good
and you're the only one that's understood
I come along but I don't know where you're taking me
I shouldn't go but you're wrenching dragging shaking me
turn off the sun pull the stars from the sky
the more I give to you the more I die
and I want you
you are the perfect drug
the perfect drug
the perfect drug
the perfect drug
you make me hard when i'm all soft inside
I see the truth when i'm all stupid-eyed
the arrow goes straight through my heart
without you everything just falls apart
my blood wants to say hello to you
my fears want to get inside of you
my soul is so afraid to realize
how very little there is left of me
take me with you
without you everything falls apart
it's not as much fun to pick up the pieces

4 of 365/2 - Last night I had some friends over to share cigars and absinthe (the notorious green cocktail from the Belle Epoch). You pour a shot of absinthe into a glass, place a slotted spoon over the glass with a sugar cube or two on the spoon. Then you place very cold ice-water into the fountain and allow the water to drip slowly over the sugar into the glass at a ratio of 3 or 5:1. Quite tasty if you like anise. Happy to report no one cut off their ear.
I've wanted to do some still life work and this gave me a chance to begin.
Happy 4th of July. Let's celebrate those liberties our government still allows us.
