X-mas stripes Bow Tie o’ the Day couldn’t save me from myself. Bow Tie accompanied me to grocery shop at Dick’s Market, and while I wandered the fruits and veggies section, I suddenly felt the old urge for a brewski. After not imbibing what I prefer to call “liquid bread” for more than a decade, I immediately fell off the wagon and bought myself the first 6-pack I saw. Dick’s Market does not sell beer. Just my luck. Oh, well. Anything for a joke.
