Ode to energy

Some people get energy from the music they listen to, or even the rocks they collect. Some people get it from being around others or being alone. Some people get energy from a touch or a feeling. Energy can be consumed just as easily as it is drained. When butt mug is in hand, my energy finds stasis. It might be in the ergonomics or in its story. It is the touch and the feeling. On a day like today, I'm keeping it in touch and that's a good feeling. 

Bourbon and Bacon

New Years Eve and before long I was slathered in bacon grease. Apparently when preparing "Devil's on Horseback", bourbon is a requisite beverage. Dates were not so delicately stuffed with roasted garlic, then tightly wrapped in bacon. Every few minutes fire water fueled the process, leaving me tacky. Baked until caramelized and crispy. I can't seem to get away from anything bourbon or bacon.
