Queens Park Swizzle

My landlady in Toronto, Linda, is from Trinidad. And as I’ve been away from my adoptive city for far too long, I miss her and her daughter Racheal heaps. I miss our conversations when we’re both in the kitchen, cooking our meals. Or enjoying a bottle of sparkling wine on a sunny day. Or watching Home Alone or old variety programmes on telly on cold ones... I’ve only ever been to two Caribbean islands, but these were such wonderful trips, I’ve always wanted to return; Jamaica has always been a dream, my Dad having worked with so many reggae singers who call it home, and after meeting Linda, Trinidad is on my wish list too! Until I get there, and because the hotel where this cocktail was invented closed decades ago, I’m sipping a Queens Park Swizzle now, in the sunshine, thinking of dear friends and future trips... Happy Saturday!

Ingredients (serves 1):

a dozen to 15 large ice cubes

8 to 10 leaves fresh mint + a sprig for garnish

22.5 millilitres/3/4 fluid ounce (1 1/2 tablespoon) Simple Syrup

1 small, ripe lime

60 millilitres/2 fluid ounces (4 tablespoons) good quality Caribbean Rum (I used Ginger and Lime Rum)

4 dashes Angostura bitters

Crush the ice (if you’re doing this by hand with an ice crusher, it may take some time, so keep crushed ice cool in the freezer whilst you go through the dozen or so ice cubes!)

Tear the mint leaves into a Collins or other tall glass. Add Simple Syrup, and muddle thoroughly with a muddler.

Thoroughly squeeze the juice of the whole lime, and pour into the glass, along with the Rum. Muddle again to mix.

Spoon in crushed ice until it half fills the glass, and swizzle with a bar spoon until frost forms on the outside of the glass. Fill the glass with remaining crushed ice, until it comes slightly over the top of the rim.

Top with 4 dashes Angostura bitters. Garnish with mint sprig.

Enjoy Queen’s Park Swizzle immediately, preferably lounging in a deck chair in the sun...

Lazing in the sunshine under a cloudless blue sky, listening to Oscar Peterson beautifully play Summertime is what a late August Saturday afternoon is for! Even better with a Queens Park Swizzle or a Torontonian in my hand! Have a good one, friends!

Queen's Park Swizzle Este drinque do baú foi criado na capital de Trinidad, Porto de Espanha e recebeu o nome do Queen’s Park Hotel, fundado em 1895 e da técnica empregada em seu preparo, a Swizzle. Swizzles são coquetéis típicos do Caribe, semelhantes aos Punch, mas preparados com gelo moído e misturados com um galho de uma árvore aromática homônima. Os ramos do galho ajudam a integrar o coquetel e resfriá-lo com a ajuda do gelo moído, produzindo uma camada de condensação na parte externa do copo. Parente próximo do Mojito, o Queen’s Park Swizzle é mais seco e amadeirado, sendo composto por rum envelhecido, suco de limão, xarope de açúcar demerara, hortelã e bitter aromático.

The Mind Flayer

Pairing: Billy Hargrove x Reader

Warnings: Spoilers for season 3, blood and injury

Word Count: 1619

A/N: So, here is part 21 of Nightmares and Bruises. I’ve officially passed my first year of uni! So, updates from now on should be more regular until I go back (covid permitting) in September. The taglist is open so drop me an ask or a comment! I won’t reply to comments because this is a side blog but know that I see and read them all.

Series Masterlist

Masterlist

“He said he was building something.” El told everyone when she had calmed down enough. “That it was all for me.”

“Building something? Is he talking about the flayed?” Max wondered.

“He must be. He said something similar after the crash.” Y/N said as she rested her head in her hands.

“So, he’s building an army, just like we thought.” Lucas started pacing back and forth behind the sofa.

“Yeah, but he’s not building this army to spread.” Mike said.

“He’s building it to stop Eleven.” Will added.

Mike nodded. “Last year, El closed the gate on him. I have a feeling that really pissed him off.”

“Like, royally.” Lucas agreed as he stopped pacing.

“And the mind flayer now knows that she’s the only thing that can stop him.” Mike said. “But if she’s out of the way…”

“Game over.” Lucas finished.

“He also said, that he was… going to kill all of you.” El’s gaze drifted across everyone in the room, remembering everything they had all done to help her over the last couple of years.

“Yeah, well, that’s nice.” Max said as everyone else shared worried looks.

A faint noise in the distance caught Nancy’s attention and she stood up and walked over to the window. It sounded again, like faint screeching, but was difficult to distinguish from the fireworks they were letting off at the fair. “Do you guys hear that?”

The others sat up straighter and strained their ears to see of they could hear what Nancy was hearing in amongst the fireworks.

“It’s just the fireworks.” Jonathan said after a moment of listening.

Nancy didn’t seem convinced as she spun back around to face them. “Billy… When he told you this, it was here, in this room?”

“Yeah.” Y/N said as El nodded, and then it clicked in Y/N’s mind. “He knows where we are.” She shot to her feet as fear started to spread through the room.

“Yeah, he knows we’re here.” Will’s hand drifted to the back of his neck.

“We’ve got to go.” Y/N said, as she pulled her keys out of her pocket.

Nancy grabbed her keys and then followed Y/N to the door. They walked straight out with Jonathan and the kids hot on their heels. They made it down to where the cars were parked, the fireworks periodically illuminating everything around them in various colours, when they noticed movement at the top of the road. It looked exactly like Will’s drawing from last year; towering with huge legs, like a spider. It was ripping up trees as it came towards them and was moving very fast.

“Back inside!” Y/N grabbed Nancy and ushered the kids and Jonathan back towards the cabin. “El, I don’t suppose Hopper keeps any guns here?”

“In the shed.” EL pointed over to it.

Jonathan ushered the kids inside as Nancy went to grab the shotgun from the shed and Y/N grabbed the wood cutting axe. Y/N walked back inside to see the kids were blocking the windows with tables and chairs, moving bookcases and shelves in front of doors, and trying to make the cabin as secure as they could. When Nancy had come back in, Y/N and Jonathan pushed the sofa up on its edge and barricaded the door.

“Hey, get away from the windows!” Nancy called to Mike as they all formed a circle in the centre of the room, waiting and wondering where the first attack would come from.

The lights started flickering as the cabin started to shake. It was soft at first, just the lamp shades rocking, but then it started to get harder, things started falling off shelves and everything started to rattle.

“It’s close.” Will said, as the trees directly outside of the cabin started creaking.

A mug fell off the rack on the wall and shattered in the floor, causing them all to jump. They could tell it was getting nearer but with all the windows boarded up, they had no idea where it actually was and that was setting them even more on edge.

Then, all of a sudden, everything stopped and it went quiet.

“Where’d it go?” Max asked, voicing everyone’s concern as they all looked at each other.

Suddenly, one of the creature’s arms came through the wall in the corner near the bookcase. They all cried out in surprise and jumped away from it as it moved further into the room. The end of the arm looked like one of those claw grabbers they have in amusement parks. It went to grab at Max, Eleven and Mike but Y/N swung the axe and connected with it. She pulled it out and slammed it down again and again until the arm moved back. Before she could swing the axe again, the arm swung, knocking her and Jonathan back into one of the cabinets. The axe went flying as they both fell to the floor. Jonathan grabbed Y/N’s arm and pulled her back as it started coming at them again.

Nancy fired the shot gun, drawing it away from Y/N and Jonathan and towards her. She reloaded as it came towards her and kept shooting it, ripping off chunks of flesh as she did. But then the gun jammed. She tried to unjam it as she moved backwards but it wouldn’t budge. Her back hit the wall and she closed her eyes, preparing for impact, but it never came. She slowly opened her eyes to see Eleven using her powers to pull it back.

The creature was shrieking but Eleven didn’t let up and with a flick of her wrist she severed the end from the rest of the arm. The creature pulled its arm back through the hole in the wall.

“Holy shit.” Max said.

They didn’t get to take a breath though, because another one shot through the wall, straight at El. She held her arm up and stopped it as it tried to grab her as another shot through the opposite wall. She stopped that one too as the others looked on, feeling helpless. The creature was shrieking as it fought against her. El looked around at her friends and yanked her arms back into her body. Both of the creature’s arms severed just as the first had, and they both retreated.

El was panting hard but before she could react, a much larger arm came through the ceiling and grabbed her ankle. It pulled back and El hit the floor before it started to lift her towards the hole in the ceiling and, to everyone’s horror, the creature’s mouth. Mike raced forward and grabbed both of her hands before she got too far off the ground. El started screaming from the strain and the claws ripping into the skin of her ankle as Y/N, Jonathan, Max and Will all ran forward to help Mike. Nancy started reloading the shotgun as Mike screamed at everyone to pull harder.

“Nancy shoot it!” Jonathan called out; his voice strained from the effort.

Nancy finished loading and started shooting. It seemed to anger the creature more than anything else.

“Come on! Lucas!” Max screamed as he looked on from the corner.

That seemed to snap him out of his daze. He grabbed the axe Y/N had dropped as Nancy kept shooting. He jumped up onto a side table and swung the axe at the arm. It connected and the creature shrieked so, he pulled it back out and swung again, and again, and again. At the same time Nancy kept shooting, El was still screaming, and the others were still pulling her back towards the ground. Lucas swung the axe one last time, severing the arm, and El and the others fell to the floor.

“El, El? You okay?” Mike asked. EL just nodded, too tired to talk.

“Holy shit.” Y/N breathed out as she noticed the end of the arm was not only still attached to El’s leg but was also still moving. She sat up and reached for it as Mike followed her lead. They looked at each other before they both grabbed it and yanked it off. El screamed as it tore a hole in her leg. Y/N threw the arm away from them and watched as it crawled back outside.

The creature shrieked again and started to push its head through the hole in the ceiling; it’s rows and rows of razor-sharp teeth on full display. Nancy went to reload the shotgun, but El shakily got to her feet with determination written clearly across her face. She screamed as she shot out both of her hands and started tearing the monsters head apart. The monster was shrieking and fighting but with one final push, El ripped its head in half.

“Go, go, go.” Y/N ushered the boys out as her and Max grabbed El.

“C’mon, c’mon, go!” Jonathan ripped the sofa off the door before opening it and making sure everyone got out.

Nancy and Jonathan got the boys in the station wagon as Y/N and Max got El into the Mustang. The creature was still shrieking and stumbling as both of the cars tore out of the driveway.

A w. I. p bio for my new girl that I got from @8bit-mau5 (I absolutely love her design God it's to fucking die for. All art here is from 8bit!!)

Her name is "Sugar" Batida Paloma. She's an heiress, but finds it amusing, playing the game and vying for the throne can be so much fun if you know what you're doing. That being said she doesn't gaf off her duties, but does enjoy running her couple of high class club.

One of Her nicknames is 'butterfly daiquri' though people tend to just call her Sugar. she tends to use this nick name so she can create side funds and stuff for the bars and clubs she runs.

Personality wise she knows she's a queen but isn't the type to rub it in anyone's face. However she has standards.if you want something from her you better damn well impress her.

Her fancy club that is more of a high class place is called : Kir Royale

Her regular just clubbing club is called: Queen's park swizzle

Rum and Honey Prawn and Avocado Skewers

Jules is home at the moment, so I reckon the three of us watching Death in Paradise together is reason enough to throw a little Caribbean Feast, especially when Sergeant Naomi Thomas is returning on her home island of St. Barnabas for her best friend’s wedding! And these Rum and Honey Prawn and Avocado Skewers are a delicious way to start the celebrations!

Ingredients (serves 3):

half-a-thumb piece fresh ginger

1/2 lime

1 heaped teaspoon honey

1 tablespoon Ginger and Lime Rum

15 beautiful prawns, steamed and cooled

1 ripe avocado

Peel ginger. Finely grate ginger, and spoon into a bowl. Grate in the zest of the lime halve, and thoroughly squeeze in its juice. Add honey and Ginger and Lime Rum.

Peel prawns and add them to the bowl. Toss well, with clean hands, to coat in ginger, lime, honey and Rum.

Place the bowl in the refrigerator, and allow prawns to marinate, at least a couple of hours (the longer, the better!), tossing them every now and then.

Peel and halve avocado. Cut its flesh into large enough dices.

Arrange a Rum and honey prawn and an avocado dice onto each of fifteen skewers, and place them onto serving tray. Chill until serving time.

Serve Rum and Honey Prawn and Avocado Skewers alongside Féroce d'Avocat, Fried Plantain, and Accras de Morue, and chilled Planters Punch or Queens Park Swizzles!
