I Run Because I Eat: The Marie Antoinette

The Marie Antoinette

Pearl Plum Vodka, Champagne, Lavender Syrup, Grapefruit.

I was intrigued by the name, then curious about plum vodka and last hypnotized by the idea of lavender syrup.
Then I drank it. It's like a unicorn peed magic fairy tales into a glass.

$10 at The Pearl Hotel, 1410 Rosecrans Street
Happy Hour 'till 7pm: $3 beers, $5 well drinks.

My Language Defined

1. The issue of Sex. In order to be more gender inclusive I've decided to start referring to all unknown sexes (of insects, mammals, and maybe some people) as both male and female in the same sentence. So don't be confused when I say, for example, "She seems like a really nice guy," or "My husband is such a good wife."

2. Prepositions. I end my sentences with prepositions whenever I want because it is now grammatically acceptable to do so with. of. by. So get with the times.

3. Wordmakeupage. I make up words quite often. I'm an educator--I consider it my business to be creative and contribute to the development of the English language. If Homer Simpson can have "doh" added to the dictionary, I want to do the same.

4. Swearing. In my attempt to stop using foul language (that is probably upsetting my mother) I will occasionally steal a method I learned from 'The Fantastic Mr. Fox' --which is to replace all swear words with the word "cuss." (ie: I can't believe that little cusser ate all my cussing basil leaves. What the cuss!)
