Family is coming over today. In order to deal with them, yes, I will be properly prepped before they even walk in the door.
In order to do this, it will take something more than your typical beer or wine. I may start off with a Pisco Chilcano - Pisco is a distilled brandy from Peru. Smell and taste is off the chart.
Good luck to all of you in my footsteps. Festivities (drinking) starts at noon.
