We were recently reminded that the younger generations use the term “Boomer Remover”. Meaning Covid-19. Very upsetting to us Baby Boomers. To calm us down, we found the recipe for a Boomer cocktail on cocktailsandshots.com.
We like to complain that a lot of the fun drink recipes we see online contain ingredients that we don’t have on the shelf. Well, Total Wine & More makes gathering those ingredients easy; some of which might be in little airline bottles so we don’t get left with a big bottle of something we will never use again. When Total Wine sends us a recipe they make it easy to click on the ingredients and accessories we might need for pick up at a store. Real easy.
After signing up for their recipe email service, our first six recipes included….. Gin & Tonic. Thanks. We’ve got that one covered.
We missed an important Baby Boomer birthday this last weekend. As NPR reported,

Here’s how the math works: The show first aired in 1962, but was set 100 years in the future. That would be 2062. During the first season of the show, George reveals that he’s 40 years old. So 2062 minus 40, and there you go.”
