Counting down the days…
So our next car payment is going to be our last one. That is is going to free up $325 a month. Obviously, this money is going to get redistributed to pay off all of our other medical bills, but because the baby has been keeping the wife up all night and because I have been working two jobs for a while now, I have declared that our first month with no car payment is going to include an expensive trip to Binny’s so I can buy a few things that I cannot otherwise afford. We deserve to spoil ourselves, methinks.
A#1 on this list is Goose Island Bourbon County Stout. For my money, this sounds like the most delicious thing ever. Stout…aged in bourbon barrels. Dear God. At $19 for a 4 pack, though, it does not fit in to my weekly budget, unfortunately.
Other than that, things are kind of up in the air. I know I want a good bottle of whiskey. Ever the bourbon lover, I am torn as to whether or not I should go with my good old standby of Woodford Reserve orĀ if should I try something new. I am now taking suggestions for new things to try.
The first thing suggested to me was Johnnie Walker Gold Label, which I am told (by a source whom I trust) is like “sex in the mouth.” That’s a review I can get behind. I am unfamiliar with Scotch, though, and not sure if that is the best place to start.
Help me out, peeps. I’d like to try something new.
P.S. No vodka recommendations please.
