I'll have Bacon, Eggs and...um...vodka???

We got this from a friend, who found it on a travel website. We figure, if it was found on the internet, it must be true...right?

"Never mix—or turn down—vodka in Russia.

The beverage is always drunk neat—and no, not even with ice. Adding anything is seen as polluting the drink's purity (unless the mixer is beer, which produces a formidable beverage known as yorsh). But there's another faux pas that's even worse, says Foster: when you're offered the drink and you turn it down. Since offering someone a drink is a sign of trust and friendship, it's a good idea to take it. Even if it is 9 a.m."

I think I might have enough 9 am shots of vodka in my future that I could qualify as an honorary Accidental Drunk. Many may already qualify and don't even know it. Check out our friend’s blog accidentaldrunks.blogspot.com to find out if you too could be an honorary member.

Thanks for the heads up, Monica : )
