My aperitif today is a Bee’s Knees, made with Mike’s hot honey. It adds a little bit of a kick to this lemon and gin drink.

Just finished writing an article, so I'm grabbing a quick coffee at Brother Baba Budan. Busy on the public holiday!

8. What's your favourite food and drink combo when writing?

I never eat while writing. But I do enjoy a good glass of whiskey.

In Parsippany, NJ, the Sheraton hotel bartender (Thomas) made an amazing French 75, shaking it at tableside, pouring it into a Martini glass, and floating champagne on top to finish it. It tasted amazing!!

He asked whether I wanted it on ice or not (some people drink it on ice--no one *I* know), and we had a marvelous talk about craft cocktails. He makes his own simple syrup--from raw sugar only, please. I wish we could drink there more often.

Q1 - Incorporating clothing into your writing.

I use clothing to help set the mood:
I say in my corner of the bar, dressed in black, with a dark hat pulled down over my eyes. My style said Leave me alone.

A bartender in two layered tank tops (not too tight!), to make it easy for her to flair while she works--because bottles and shakers can hang up unpredictably on clothing.

Q2: Pumpkin spice latte or pumpkin spice coffee:

a) a tasty seasonal treat that you can’t wait for
b) a seasonal treat you can take or leave
c) the devil’s work
d) other–please explain

Inserting the only flavor that makes pumpkin palatable into a beverage that doesn't need it and never asked for it.
