Except for the meat it looks wonderful. Enjoy! We’ve gotten 6 inches overnight. No wind so no “blizzard” but still, snow.
My lamb says you’ve looked better yourself. 
With Covid killing the food service industry, the commercial suppliers are selling to residential clients. I bought flats of all sorts of mixers and soda. Including two flats of Fever-Tree Tonic and Gingerbeer. Time for Gin and Tonics and Moscow Mules. 
BevMo had these BOGO last week. Bought a few myself.
G@d bless Four Quarters Brewing of Winooski, Vermont!
BTW, toward the bottom of the beer can is George Clinton on the Mothership, an homage to the seminal 1975 Parliament album, “Mothership Connection.” And the name of the beer – “You’ve Got All That is Really Needed to Save a Dying World From its Funkless Hell” – is the first line from the “Mothership Connection” track, “Unfunky UFO.”
Does beer taste as good as it sounds?

Hi Chas, oh yes, it is quite tasty. It is hard to go wrong with any Four Quarters’ many beers:
I don’t know whether to be sad or glad? Sad that I never had time, money nor opportunity to sample all the different liquors or glad that I was non-discriminatory enough to be satisfied with whatever was at hand. There are so many of these things I never heard of, saw nor, certainly, sampled.
Dropped like 10º centigrade here, so time for whiskey it is: Black Bush (from Bushmills, Northern Ireland).
Different from the standard ‘Bush’ in this is a blend of malt whiskey and a tad Irish single grain whiskey to soften it.
Haven’t tried Mezcal in ages but seems to be having a rebound. Last one had the worm. The Centenario takes me back. Used to get it cross the border in the 70’s. Way smoother than Cuervo and the like. Thought I had a corner on a great tequila till I saw it at Osco and new I wasn’t cool any more.
There certainly is some pretty awful mezcal, but Ilegal is good. This is the middle - the Reposado. May splash out for the Anejo sometime, but its pricey.
Beef, you’ve probably read this classic in which mezcal features prominently. One of my favorites.
I have not, actually. Will look it up, as I’ve heard the title.
I will say that I have a feeling that the younger generation may have an affinity for the smoky bite of the Mezcal. For the same price, or less, you can get Anjeo tequilas that are comparatively luxurious to me. But I’m a Fossil Dude. This is not to say that I don’t appreciate what Mezcals are about.
Here is a Father’s Day shot of Centenario Anjeo (sipped slowly) in a glass from the Ahwahnee Hotel. If you get a chance go there, do so - whether or not you stay there.
If you can find it, the “single village” series of mezcal by Del Maguey is the bomb. Produced in villages of varying altitude and water sources.
This one goes down like an 18 yr old scotch, and is priced like one.
Just poured a stupid large Glencairn glass full of this rye. It was the end of the bottle. A great rye whiskey distilled in Michigan. A wonderful distillery.
