Throwing it back a few years to an amazing conversation I had at @sevengrandla with two veteran @nasajpl engineers. The husband asked what I was drinking, which happened to be the legendary Historic Core by @drinks_in_fruits, impeccably made by @luciee_ee. I explained the backstory and they both wanted one, sight unseen. 🥃
Turns out the husband was working on two key Perseverance projects: the Ingenuity “helicopter” and MOXIE (Mars Oxygen In-Situ Resource Utilization Experiment). 🚁👽
All of this to say that I miss sitting in front of John, Lucy and so many other bartenders - and having random, mind-blowing conversations in bars.

According to tradition, New Year’s Day sets the tone for the rest of the year. As we continue to stay safe at home, that means a lot of vinyl, movies in the queue, books on the nightstand, and a cocktail or three.
