#its about this pharmacist from new orleans

[troubleabroad]

WALKING (OPTIONAL)

The title will make sense, trust me. Another humid day today in Nawlens. Between jet lag, late nights, and all the shades of the carb rainbow, humidity really takes it out of you. We went out to the pharmacy museum to start the day.

The pharmacy museum isn’t just any old pharmacy by the way, its a collection of old medical artefacts (see modern day knock offs) located in americas first pharmacist! EXCITEMENT PLUS

in theory…

It promised a lot, and really under delivered. it may not have helped that there was a wedding starting there not, but the exhibits weren’t the best. The had a lot of unbelievable (see not original) bits and bobs from the first days of pharmacy, all with crappy homemade, printed info next to said items.

We left the pharmacy and made our way to the French Market, also known as the Shops Of The Colonnade. Fancy

The market is a small strip of generic gift stalls and eateries spanning about 200m in length. The gift side of it is all same same, they must all have the same bulk supplier who they then onset for, because originality was not very high on the agenda. The food on the other hand was far better. Many highly rated eateries are on the little strip of shops, including some of Nawlens signature meals! We started with beignets and a muffuletta. A beignet is basically a fried puff pastry-donut hybrid. Tasty, but sweet. The muffuletta is a delicious combination of ham, salami, provolone (mozzarella) cheese, some pickles and a mix of chopped green & black olives, pickled vegetables and olive oil. All of this is sandwiched between a great sesame toasted roll. It was probably one of, if not the, best sandwich I’ve ever had. Its certainly something that i hope makes it to Australia someday.

At the end of the child labour stands was the famous New Orleans Jazz museum! Certainly an experience that’s a must do in the home of jazz music! At least that’s what i would say if it were open. They were closed for a private event. Unbeknown to us, thursday is obviously private event day in new orleans. We promptly left the museum and went around the corner to a record store, after perusing the lanes there for a while, we needed a refreshment, Thankfully there was a brewery nearby! It’s almost as if record stores and beer go hand in hand. We stayed at the brewery for a couple of drinks, before starting the journey back into town to start our ghost tour!

One thing I’ve not done in new orleans is a ghost tour, and with such a rich history of vampires, wanted mansions and spooky stuff, its time to now do one! We got to our meeting spot at the steps of the Louisiana state court, with its vagrants nestled amongst the bushes, and awaited our guide for our walking ghost tour!! Its here the i need to make an important note. New orleans sidewalks (footpaths) and roads are in terrible condition. tonnes of potholes, broken concrete, one part we saw a hole so big the traffic cone covering it had just fallen in. VERY ROUGH WALKING TERRAIN. Remember that.

We begin our tour by meeting our weird lady guide. who has a bung leg.

She got hit by someone on a bike when she was getting out of a pedicab. So we’re off to a flyer. Our guide, the now who has to lead the WALKING TOUR can’t walk properly and is in a lot of pain. ripper. Thankfully before we take off, we are interrupted by a bit of fanfare in the street, as it turns out, for a cool $500 you can hire a full jazz band, have a police escort and walk the streets of New Orleans in your very own second line parade.

A second line parade is where a very loud jazz band will walk the streets of new orleans, usually after a funeral, and celebrate all that life brings. These people, as awesome as the band were, were not celebrating a funeral. More just drunkenly walking behind a paid band to look cool. Once they passed we were off to our first stop with a not so scary story about a haunted hotel room, that i don’t really remember is was that bland, something about a suicide or murder or something nasty. Anyway, we get going to our next stop, with our fearless peggy legged sue leading the way. We’ve got a bit of a holdup though on the way to our next stop

Not only are we being led by hop-a-long, we also have a nanna being pushed in a wheelchair. Remember what i said about being rough terrain? Well nan is up the creek without a paddle. Mind you, she was pretty agile and could have walked, but instead was being pushed by a rotation of her 4 daughters. After almost putting nan A over T, they caught up to the group for our next stop. Another death of some description, and another haunted hotel room. Dunno. Not very interesting. This went on for multiple stops. Slow leader in pain, nan getting bogged on the concrete footpath. It was all a bit ridiculous really. We did reach one cool spot though, and this one i actually remembered, it was an old convent that basically started the rumours of vampires in the area. Being a town built by prisoners, prostitutes and anyone else unsavoury at the time, the french decided that in order to build the population, they need to send women over to start anew. All these girls were sent straight to the convent so they were brung up good and the like, and they were “smuggled” in to the building by night, so as not to crete too much fanfare with the men. You see, a lot of men with no out seeing a boat load of women coming in, it could create a bit of a stir… So they get the girls into the convent, but their luggage is still on the boats. conveniently, their luggage was in wooden boxes that resembled coffins.

Long story short, the men saw a boat full of coffins arrive, and then extremely pasty (french girls who didn’t see sunlight) girls in the windows of the convent, Hence, vampires. We kept hopping along, nan kept getting stuck, and we reached our second last stop. This was also an interesting one. but not in a nice way. This building was once owned by a wealthy couple, who often hosted very highbrow parties. Guests often commented on the ever changing “staff”. “Staff” being the kind word for slaves. Albeit you could own slaves, in new orleans, you still had to treat them with basic rights and keep them employed, in good health, educated etc. So with constantly changing staff, rumours swelled. Until one day, when a fire overtook the house. The guests got out, and when police went in to investigate, they found it started in the kitchen. And the slave who started it was chained to the stove and would have rather died than going “upstairs" Again, long story short, but here’s the speed run version. Lady starts fire, mentions upstairs, police investigate upstairs, find disfigured slaves chained to walls, try to arrest homeowners, they flee and die. No one wants the house (haunted), until many, many years later when an Italian couple purchase it. The sell it due to constant scratching sound in the roof. and seeing a man holding his own head walking around (ghost). Find false floor upstairs with dozens of human remains from the original owners. Sold. And it remained unsold, until a man by the name of Nicholas Cage purchased the property! And it remained his until he forgot to pay his mortgage on it and it was taken off him. Side note, nick cage has a pyramid shaped tombstone already on a plot in new orleans for when the day comes. The time came to head to our final stop of the tour. We arrived looking like we’d just walked out of the trenches in gallipoli, hobbling leader and a bunch of bored infantry behind her, but we had lost a member of the group.

Nan didn’t make it. More specifically, nans wheelchair didn’t make it.

She got a bloody flat tyre. But, much like all heart warming stories, from the rubble of new orleans, nan arrived. Walking like the champion that she is, into the meeting point whilst another group member carried the wheelchair over his shoulder. Forget eric the eel, its all about nan and her wheelchair!

Thankfully the tour finished, nan survived, and our leader was off into the night. What a ride. We left the tour and needed a feed, so buggalugs had found a little deli/caffe/dodgy spot for food. What they say is right, the dodgier the better. We walked in and placed our order with the man at the front desk, who had a gun sling over his shoulder, then waited for our subs. Think the local milker, but if the local milker is at risk of being shot up or robbed. Thats where we were. We got our subs and walked back to the hotel. The ever present Dwayne was having a dart out the front so we had a chat, he was genuinely surprised we found and got food from this place. He said its incredible, and only locals know it. So that was kinda cool, that we shopped where the locals shop! We got back to the lodging and started on our subs. No word of a lie, it was the length of my forearm, and contained the following… Ham, shrimp, turkey, mushrooms, sauce, cheese. I wish i had of weighed it, cos she was hefty.

After the heart attack sub, it was time to pack and get our stuff ready for New York tomorrow. It wasn’t a bad time in new orleans, hard to have a bad time on holiday really, but in the 10-11 years since I’ve been here, the city has not improved one bit. Its still falling apart, smells like piss and has an increasing homeless problem and overall is a bit of a dirty city. BUT its all about experiencing different things when overseas i guess. Lets hope this sub doesn’t repeat on me…..

You have GOT to watch The Pharmacist on netflix, it's a riveting story and really impressively put together from actual recordings of the events. It's also not graphic at all; of course they talk about death and drugs but theres no disturbing imagery or depictions of anyone using. Netflix almost never promotes documentary series which is honestly such a shame because I was really really impressed with this one.

#i didnt want to draw out my post with a summary you can google but #its about this pharmacist from new orleans #whose son was murdered in a drug deal #and he spent all this time trying to find his sons killer #and then realized a lot of the drugs in his community were coming from his own pharmacy #so he tracked them back to this one doctor who was supplying oxycontin for the whole southeast #and managed to take down her operation and help expose the public to how dangerous opioids are #back in the very early days of the epidemic #its just interesting because a) the guy is both a hero and an absolute madman #and b) its a really good look at the epidemic and how it happened

11 Essential and Popular Whiskey Cocktails for 2021

Whiskey holds a world of flavor in just a drop of amber liquid. It comes in many styles, be it rye, bourbon, or Scotch — and a range of tastes, from oaky or smoky, to spicy or sweet. While it may have a reputation for being a heavier, stronger spirit, there’s an array of whiskey-based cocktails that will satisfy any palate, whether you prefer something light and tangy, or something dark and peaty.

There’s a reason everyone loves whiskey, from Japan to Ireland. Firewater’s universal. And no matter the place or time, there’s a whiskey cocktail that’s perfect for the occasion — you can cool your summers with a Bourbon Peach Punch, or weather your winters with a fireside Hot Toddy. Here are 11 of the best and most essential whiskey cocktails that are both timeless and seasonless.

Sazerac

The first Sazerac was made in New Orleans in the early 19th century by Haitian pharmacist Antonine Amédée Peychaud. The original drink was intended to be a medicinal concoction, and was made using brandy. More modern versions use rye as a base, but we’re still convinced it has healing properties — if you’re in desperate need of a rich libation and a light buzz, that is. Just add some rye, Demerara syrup, Peychaud’s bitters, and your desired amount of absinthe into a mixing glass and stir. Garnish with a lemon rind and toast to NOLA.

See Recipe

Whiskey Sour

The Whiskey Sour is a stellar example of “less is more.” The American classic needs only a few basic ingredients in order to hit the spot: whiskey (typically bourbon), simple syrup, and any kind of citrus juice. Adding some egg whites to the mix can give it a silkier texture, but it isn’t required for taste — sours are easy to knock back, regardless.

See Recipe

Hot Toddy

Drinks aren’t always served best cold. Case in point: the Hot Toddy. You can make one using ingredients you probably already have on hand — honey and lemon. The best part of it all? We’ve gathered some evidence that a good Hot Toddy may help drinkers battle a cold or flu, so you can sip in peace, knowing it’s for your health. This is a home remedy we can get behind.

Manhattan

Want to look sophisticated? Go to your local drinkery and order a Manhattan. Legend has it the classic cocktail has been around since the 1870s, and originated in New York City, mixed together in honor of the hometown presidential candidate Samuel J. Tilden. One can be made with bourbon or rye, though some more modern versions opt for bourbon. Just mix together the whiskey of your choice, sweet vermouth, some bitters, and garnish with a Maraschino cherry or an orange peel. (Or make it a Perfect Manhattan by splitting the sweet vermouth with dry vermouth.)

See Recipe

Old Fashioned

The Old Fashioned is — well, it’s in the name. It’s one of the oldest cocktails in history, and there’s no doubt that its quality has led to its longevity. All it takes to make is a healthy helping of bourbon or rye, a bit of simple syrup (or a sugar cube), and some Angostura bitters. You can top it with an orange or lemon peel and sip on it thoughtfully like “Mad Men’s” Don Draper.

See Recipe

Bourbon Peach Punch

While bourbon’s commonly used in a number of fruity tea punches given its Southern roots, we figured the peach is one of its better pairings. It’s definitely one that speaks to its origins. This recipe uses frozen peach slices in place of ice cubes, so there’s no need to worry about a diluted drink if you’re imbibing during the afternoon of a summer scorcher. It also calls for pineapple and lemon juice, and a dash of black pepper to enhance the natural spiciness of the bourbon while complementing the sweetness of the fruit.

See Recipe

Blood and Sand

Raise your glasses, movie buffs. The Blood and Sand was invented in 1930, following the 1922 silver screen debut of Rudolph Valentino’s bullfighter movie “Blood and Sand.” It’s one of the few classic cocktails made with Scotch. You’ll also need some cherry Heering, sweet vermouth, and orange juice before you can start sipping.

See Recipe

Boulevardier

The Boulevardier has its roots in the Prohibition era, and it’s easy to see why — the bourbon-based riff of the Negroni (which is made with gin) is so delicious we’d go in the slammer for it. Served with some Campari and sweet vermouth on the rocks, it has a refined European feel with an American twist. In fact, the drink was invented by an Erskine Gwynne, an American living in Paris in the 1920s.

See Recipe

Mint Julep

The Mint Julep was invented in the late 1700s and was originally intended to be a digestive aid. While we can’t exactly speak to its medicinal merit, we can vouch that it is the best beverage to indulge in during the Kentucky Derby. It’s made with Kentucky’s homegrown spirit — bourbon — some simple syrup, and mint. If you want to go the traditional route, serve it in a pewter or silver cup for a touch of prestige.

See Recipe

Rob Roy

The Rob Roy is yet another drink crafted in the halls of a 19th-century hangout for New York’s upper echelon — some believe that it was originally made at the Waldorf Astoria in NYC (which was then called the Waldorf Hotel.) Unsurprisingly, it’s not so different from its coevals, the Manhattan and the Old Fashioned. The Rob Roy is also made with Angostura bitters and sweet vermouth, but its base is Scotch instead.

See Recipe

Vieux Carré

A bit over a century after the Sazerac, the Vieux Carré was born in New Orleans’ French Quarter. The cocktail is made with rye, Cognac, sweet vermouth, a spoonful of Benedictine, and both Angostura and Peychaud’s bitters. It was invented in 1938 at the Hotel Monteleone’s famous Carousel Bar, which is fitting, because this is a recipe we’d like to take for spin again and again. But hold your horsies, because the Vieux Carré is bitter, sweet, and very potent.

Well here I am 28. It’s been a long while. A lot of thing have happened since then. I’ve since graduated from the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh. Been through several jobs. None that have to do with my degree, go figure. Been working on many trips. I’ve moved to Colorado, it’s been three years already. I met the love of my life out here. Be have fur babes and are looking for a house of our own.

January of 2018 I moved out here by with college friend Cassy. We moved into this cute place in Golden Colorado. We had the cutest land lords Elmer and Elaine Dudden it was a two bed one bath apartment and it was “cheap” and ours. It had a pond with loud resident geese. The back yard was the beginning of the mountain which is what we came here for. I worked as a pharmacy technician at cvs in Wheatridge. Cassy finally found a job in April and she’s still there. We spent a lot of weekend down town Denver and took the light rail there. We were lucky enough to love across the street from the last stop on the W-Line station(quite handy). We eventually moved out and separated because Cassy wanted to move closer to downtown and I couldn’t afford that on my tiny wage.

I got my job at cvs in the November before moving out here. I started on January third 2018. I managed to get a full time position without the weekend. I had a nasty manager who was one and a half months older then me and threatened by me even though she has the doctorate degree. I met so good people there though. When I moved to dtc with my boyfriend I made a transfer to the Glendale location. I got a new and lovely boss who didn’t write me up because she needed someone to blame her issues on. While I was there she was demoted. Probs because she was the problem not me... Glendale was the busiest store in the state. So it had its trade offs. I happened to be the only person who could make it to work when it snowed... disaster. I eventually begged for a transfer because that place was bad for my health and both the pharmacists who made working there tolerable had left for better places. My last transfer was to a store only a few minutes from home. More trade offs, I had to work weeks here, but I was away from the place that took my ability to be a person a way. I worked at the last place for only a few months before I was approached by a girl I had met at Glendale. She had gotten out of the cvs craziness and asked if I’d like to join. I got the job real easy. And it’s the job that’s been the best since I’ve. Been in Colorado. Lowest stress and drama and no customers. I hate it the least.

I met Jonathan in March of 2018 and my life has been the best since then. He’s 6 months older then me and has 5 other siblings one being his twin. We went on our first date to an ice cream shop and had a tiny cup and talked for hours. I tenant liked him but I had bad luck before with making first dates second dates. Well I was lucky enough to get a second. He was in college still at this time so our dates were on the weekends and couldn’t be all day but I know we both wanted them to be. Our dates(not in any real order) were mini golf and sushi before he made it over to my house after I had spent a weekend camping with Cassy were her asked me to be his girlfriend. It wasn’t as romantic as you would have thought but it was one of the best days. May 28th. After that we had a lot of lovely sleep overs and dinners and breakfasts I made for him. He graduated Colorado in December of 2018 after about 8 years. I was so proud of him even though neither of us our using our degrees. After about a year we’ve moved in together and it’s been about a year and a half since we be done that. We will have been together three years in may. We have gone a lot of places together. We have been to Wisconsin a few times for the holidays and wedding and I’ve dragged home all over the country side (he loved every minute of it jk). We have been camping, we’ve been to the sand dunes, Pagosa Springs all in Colorado. We been to New Orleans with his family and soon the be a few more places to make memories with like Orlando Vegas and Glenwood Springs. We spend a lot of weeks together with his oldest brother and Jenni looking for gold flakes in the mountains.

Since we’ve been together we have gotten new jobs, we had Odie the best American black lab who is the goodest boy he is 6 and super smart LOVES his dad and tolorates me he loves me too really but never as much as dad. I rescued a sweet pup with a rough life named Ellie a black lab mix of sorts. We thought she was mixed with hound of some sort. The cutest! She was wild and loved to run outside. There must have been something bad that happened to her. She made it with us from September the December through heartworm treatment and many times getting out in the neighborhood. She made her last run for on January second 2019. She crossed rainbow bridge to be where she was longing to be after all. We miss her every day. ♥️ so 5 days later because I didn’t want to be without my own dog we brought home the sweetest baby puppy that we named Ruby! She is the best thing to come out of Ellie leaving the world. We love her so much. Ruby is a English black lab. She has the biggest darkest black eyes that reminds you of a cartoon. She’s pretty and little we love her so much. She’s already a a year old 😭 where has my baby gone.

I have been to all but 5 states including I still need to hit New Mexico, Oklahoma, Hawaii, North Carolina, and Delaware So I guess that traveling with the family is a big thing in my life. But now. Have a new travel buddy. I also want to make my count go up to 50 in the states I’m so close!

I’ll leave you with my favorite quote now: “The day will be what you make if it, so rise like the sun and burn.”
