Another Groop night comes and goes. After encouraging Marika to write about dancers, because every thing she writes oozes with movement, we talked about Absinthe. Nick was trying to remember some drink that included absinthe and maybe gin or maybe vodka and some bitters and some other crazy stuff. Here is a link to some possibilities.
In another place and in another time, a member of Groop pulled out a smuggled bottle. We gathered in close while he soaked a spoonful of sugar in a drop of absinthe, then lit in on fire to carmelize it, then poured the absinthe slowly over the spoon into a glass. It was the color of the water of Lake Tahoe, over in Emerald Bay, on a sunny day. And it tasted like it looked.

I think the only way this video remains here is if Laura posts pics of herself in and out of her wetsuit. And then she has to wear said suit to Groop. Otherwise, I vote that the video goes.
How about Nick in a wetsuit?
And Nick's is the only vote that counts.
And there was Thai food? Remember how tasty the Thai food was. Unless there was another bottle, and the night when the liquid was the color of Lake Tahoe was NOT in fact the only night groop was ever held--with full quorum--in Los Angeles.
Which could easily be read as yet another reason for groop to migrate south.
now isn't that a much prettier post?
much.
evocative. sexy. memorable.
stay north, bridget, stay north.
