...because we need one.
This is just a thread to relax and chat. Anything goes. There are a lot of us here that get a long very well, even when we disagree. I thought I'd make a place for us to say hey, maybe play some music, and just shoot the shit.
We can party here on the 4th. Whatever your choice, win or lose, I think we'll all need a drink.

Mulled Wine
Ingredients:
* 3 cups Water
* 1 cup Sugar
* 12 Cloves
* 2 Cinnamon sticks
* 1 Lemon peel
* 750 ml Red wine
* 1/4 cup Brandy
Mixing instructions:
Simmer 3 cups water with, sugar, cloves, cinnamon sticks, and lemon peel in a stainless steel pot for 10 minutes. Add wine heat to a "coffee temperature" (DO NOT BOIL) then add the brandy.
I'll make up a batch, just in case anyone else wanders in.

Stereotype of Texas, you'd figure her being a lesbian would have been an issue, but I didn't even know until the day of the election...she is the more qualified of the 2, but I got Robocalls from her everyday for a week...really pissed me off. But I still voted for the more qualified, even though her opponent didn't call me once.
