For this year’s Spring Break boondoggle, we headed out to Las Vegas for a few days and then ventured up to Zion National Park in Springdale, Utah. After a hard day of clamoring up and over natural obstacles, we stopped at Zion Pizza & Noodle for well, um, pizza and […]
If you pay a visit to the Ballast Point website, you wouldn’t be wrong to think that you mistakenly navigated to the website of a fresh fruit purveyor. Pineapple, watermelon, mango, grapefruit, and habanero. These ingredients are used in five of the first six beers listed on their […]
“I’m so hungry that I could eat my own arm!” – Mrs. G-LO Why was Mrs. G-LO so hungry on March 13, 2016 that she almost resorted to cannibalism? Here’s the answer… On March 11th and March 12th, Mrs. G-LO and I had the good fortune of enjoying […]
A couple of weeks ago, we received two sample bottles of Crabbie’s Alcoholic Ginger Beer. Since I already reviewed this grown-up soda, I decided that I’d try it in a cocktail. The obvious cocktail choice would have been a Dark’N’Stormy or a Moscow Mule, but I decided to […]

It’s Word Association Day at Booze Dancing central! Here goes… Agave? Tequila! Grapefruit? Paloma! Paloma? Yes, Paloma. A delightfully refreshing cocktail made with Tequila and a grapefruit based soda, served over ice with a wedge of lime. That’s what popped into my head when I saw the label on the […]
