0.5 oz gin (Tanqueray)
1.0 mezcal (Del Maguey Vida)
0.5 dry vermouth (Dolin)
0.5 (or less) Cocchi Americano

I don’t know what to call it. And it’s a weird mix of 2 vermouths and 2 spirits. But… it’s really tasty!

Less is more; Not.
Per my true love (via Robt. Venturi), "Less is a bore." Archie (and I) like it!

Concrete
... the presentation of our bodies is our spiritual act of worship. It is a significant Christian paradox. No worship is pleasing to God which is purely inward, abstract and mystical; it must express itself in concrete acts of service performed by our bodies. [John Stott

Felix culpa
God can make good use of all that happens. But the loss is real. [C.S. Lewis

Football can be fun. Who knew?
Spurs v. Hammers: Lots of fun in the West Ham box (plus, great game by Fabianski); lots of terror in our own (esp. set pieces). But, to return to point 1: "lots of fun" has been in very short supply lately, and this was a nice change. ⚽
