If you're looking for a decent cheap single malt, McClelland's is ok. It's about 20 a fifth and they make all the different varieties. It's a good way to sample them on a level field and not spend a fortune.

If you're looking for a basic blended, Dewars is usually my standard.

I've never done a coffee+scotch. Whiskey, sure, of course, although I prefer it in lapsang souchong tea.

My regular scotch is Johnnie Walker, nothing fancy.

Glad it's cold again.

Winter! Is great!

I'm over humidity and heat and and people flubbering out of their tiny summer clothes.

I roasted squash last night, made some great soup and slept with the windows open under a heavy pile of blankets. And now I get to walk to work while it's snowing. Brilliant.

Did you put maple syrup and cinnamon on the squash last night? Was it acorn squash? Thanks for the idea. I don't have to work tomorrow so I'm going to go to the store right now and get some acorn squash and eat the fuck out of it.
