Drink of Choice

My cocktail of choice for the past week. I got sick and tested positive for COVID last week. Its definitely not a fun virus. I should be back in action soon.
GWG8541 I am really sorry to hear about that & hope you get to feeling much better, very soon. This up & down weather probably does not help either.

zbigjeff thanks, I had not had an appetite during the first 3 days or so and ate a few crackers to coat the stomach for some prescriptions. One of the first things I tried when I felt well enough to eat was my favorite pizza place here in town. It’s a family owned place and soul food to me, since I grew up on it. My family has been great keeping me taken care of and delivered it to the bedroom door. The pizza looked great, it was hard to smell but smelled fine. I took a bite and about cried. The pizza I have eaten since a kid and the only purchased pizza my parents would buy, tasted horrible. No lie, I was mortified. I was expecting a boost from this great pie of nutrition and got just the opposite. The best description I can give is it was like a bite of straight salt with a dollop of grease.
So know I’m thinking what next??, Whiskey, beer? I know there are some claiming their taste buds have not recovered. This would really be unimaginable. Im hoping this is temporary.
Buy the way, I do not recommend this diet plan. Lost 8 pounds the first 4 days and made sure I stayed hydrated.GWG8541 That is terrible! I hope you get all the good stuff back soon. Hang in there, we are counting on you.

GWG8541 Start taking zinc to get those tastes back, it does work to bring the taste buds back to order. That weight loss plan sucks, I have been on one of those for the last four weeks with not being able to keep things in. The doctor told it was nutritional malabsorption, I said no sh*t, what’s causing it, we don’t know. I lost over 10 bs. before I figured out it’s one of the supplements they have me on that has turned against me and my gut.
johnsbrewhouse That is pretty much exactly what I told my oldest son & daughter in law when they got it. We gave them several quart jars of beef & chicken bone broth & I told them I was going down to get them a fresh sack of Apalachicola Oysters to shuck & eat.

calldoctoday Pearl beer, I can remember that along with Lonestar. Two beers made in San Antonio. When we were there when I was little they took us to both breweries for tours all the time. I think my dad just went for the free beer. I can remember the hall of horns at the Lonestar brewery.
johnsbrewhouse drank Pearl at the dive bar on the Texas side of the Red River when we were too young to know better. Carling’s Black Label was the beer of choice on the non pay weeks
-
calldoctoday I remember all those, it has been a long while since I have seen any of those. What about Meister Brau?
YooperDog I forgot about that one, but remember it now. I need to get my sone to take a picture of that bottle of Burgermeister I still have. I don’t know how I have kept it all these years.
-
Here’s one that many of you may not have heard of since it was a brand from the Pacific Northwest and cheap, Lucky Lager. You would pop the cap and there was always a puzzle on them to figure out.
johnsbrewhouse Nope. Never ever heard of that one. Happy that YOU did.

Two of my buds (Rose and Chuck) brought me back some goodies on their trip through Bardstown, KY. They also bought about 6 bottles and 5 used bourbon barrels for themselves. Nice having friends like this.

Now that looks better than that collection of cables… LOL -
calldoctoday said in Drink of Choice:
PapaSop I started to ask if zbigjeff needed any more of those, maybe I could trade some for used bourbon barrels. I am happy to make my bourbon in once used barrels, even if I am breaking the rules.
I just happened to be looking at this topic when that came through… Funny.
-
PapaSop yeah, posted the wrong pic first. That cable pile was the result of buying a new DVD player and roku. I also laughed at my original posting.
zbigjeff I didn’t know they still sold DVD players.
