Grandma’s hope

Since I’m a bartender

I invented a drink:

1 shot Tennessee whiskey

1/2 shot applejack

1 teaspoon honey

Dash of lemon juice

I write in a prayer that your legacy resides, as it does, in anyone who’s had grandmothers as strong, goodwilled, and faithful as mine.

I miss you- be at peace. For there rests a hope in the sun of man, the star of an age, and the future of our people.
