    Episode 13 - and does it feel like it! Everything that could have gone wrong did with the making of episode 13. Perhaps it was a poltergeist?!
    Cocktail of choice this week - Gin and Sin,  a refreshing little  layered sipper. Get your recipe here: https://simplesipsathome.com/gin-and-sin-a-simple-layered-cocktail/

    Have you ever explored a graveyard and wondered about the imagery on the headstones? Did you even realize there could be meaning behind the engraving? We didn't know the different meanings behind these traditional symbols commonly found on headstones and monument.  The more you know!

    Speaking of poltergeist - we dive in to the rumors of a curse surrounding the cast of the classic hit horror movie, Poltergeist. Our personal all time favorite! Did you know that it is rumored that real skeletons were used in the movie because it was cheaper and there have been multiple deaths and tragedies surrounding cast members.  The movie is reported to be loosely based on a true story about the activity the Herrmann family experienced in the 50's.  You can see the article about the family from Life Magazine here: House of Flying Objects

    Until next week - Drink up Bitches!
