I've just found Wilk Watchworks through the http://www.100milefinds.com website (where PolarStones are soon to be available).  Really cool to find a local maker of unique (and even custom) wristwatches.  Click the watch to follow the link to their site.

Regardless of how you spell it, whiskey and whisky are essentially the same spirit, created from a mash of fermented grains. On an initial glance, the difference between the two words just looks like an personal preference, or at worst a harmless spelling mistake. But the debate surrounding the one-letter difference between whiskey and whisky has a tendency to make die-hard bourbon connoisseurs' blood boil. Keep reading to learn the difference between whiskey and whisky. It's all fairly straightforward; the difference lies in where the particular spirit was created. Typically, American and Irish folk spell the spirit as "whiskey," whereas Japanese, Canadian, and Scottish producers favor the spelling "whisky," without that extra pesky letter. So here's the deal: chances are people will know what you're talking about with either spelling. However, if you ever find yourself spelling in a dark, crowded Scottish pub, you'd better go with the latter.

Found this on the Food Network site.
Had good reviews, may have to try it next time I have a cold.
  • 1/4 cup good strong cheap whiskey
  • 3 peppermint candies (the hard kind)
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons sugar (this is actually to taste)

Coming in November, after the summer, and before skiing, a good reason to head to Collingwood, Ontario.  Their Whiskeylicious food festival!

Please tell me this isn't the beginning of the sad, slow death of the beautiful art of wristwatches.  http://www.fastcompany.com/1779517/your-wrist-is-your-digital-doorway

Life, it is a crazy thing.
A roller coaster of sorts.
I, apparently being crazy, have added a blog to life with a wife, 3 sons, a busy over full-time job, and making whiskey stones on the side.
How do I manage this all, you ask.
Easy.... a very patient wife!
