Friday on the Rocks

100_2420

Don’t mind if I do!

I needed something to go with tonight’s popluck* guacamole so I bought some margarita stuff. It just made sense to me.

I’ve never made margaritas at home and Meijer didn’t have any Cuervo tequila for some reason, so I hope they turn out ok. I didn’t feel like hunting down a liquor store to find the good stuff. For you non-locals, you can’t just go to the next grocery store to get your liquor. You have to go to a real-live liquor store. Usually in the bad part of town! Across from the plasma bank! Isn’t that sexy? Are you intrigued? Do I get city-girl points for that? The whole reason I went to Meijer instead of Kroger was to get the liquor because Kroger only sells beer and wine.

Happy Friday!

*Maya calls our potluck “popluck.” Solid. “Bridge Club” just didn’t stick so I’m going to go with Maya’s version.

The new name might mean that you have to come up with some really awful mixed drink that features pop rocks which you’ll have to ingest while listening to “Cool It Now” by New Edition.

The Worthington Kroger not only sells Snowville Creamery milk, but they also have a bonafide liquor store inside! With Cuervo! Hey, it’s just up the high street!

The last time I had margaritas with cheap tequila, I had the runs for 24 hours.

Aren’t you glad I shared that? Nice.

when i moved here from michigan it was one of the things i thought was odd about ohio -no liquor in grocery stores. that, and they don’t have “party stores” here.

weilands will keep you out of the ghetto. well, at least for finding liquor.

@Tracy Pop Rocks and “Cool it Now” together sounds like a very special level of hell.

@Alissa I can always count on you for good information. I didn’t get the runs, but I think that’s only because I didn’t use enough tequila. Darn.

@kjames I don’t usually drink liquor, but the first time my mom was going to visit and we wanted to get some rum for her, I think I wondered around the store for an hour looking for the liquor. I didn’t realize until then that they only sold beer and wine. It’s so strange!

@Ally I didn’t know Weiland’s had liquor! I thought they only had beer and wine. I guess I’ll be able to go there next time. Unless I’m selling my plasma at the same time, then it’s just easier to go to my regular liquor store.

Hey there,
Dawn of This Woman’s Work suggested I contact you but I can’t find an email address on your site. I’m recruiting 30-40 bloggers for the Midwestern Moms Blog, a new Silicon Valley Moms Blog site that will be launching later this summer. Please email me so I can give you more info. Thanks!

I’m moving to Ohio next week and I’m way bummed after reading your post that I will now have to make 2 stops to get my food and my wine!

Vanessa
