Grimace Haiku






A tequila shot


Biting lemons, lick the salt


Down the hatch, grimace!

    1. JoJo, oh my!! Well it is just like medicine. You got to woof it down quick! LOL Some shots taste way better than others. A tequila shot will seriously mess you up. Trust me, I know! It is a drink that is so hot you feel it all the way down. Then you feel good, then you don't. I like it mixed in Tequila Sunrises, my drink of choice. Thank you for stopping in. I am so pleased you enjoyed the haiku. Once you get over the first good taste of tequila, it goes down a lot easier the more you drink! Thank you for your fun comments! ♥

    1. sugandha, I was always the complete opposite. A complete crazy, I would lead the chant "Shot girl" whenever she came around and bought another shot. Alabama Slammers, Sex on the Beach, and tequila! Even jello shots. Those were the days!!! Thank you for stopping by and for your kind comments! ♥

    1. Jyotsna, Oh my!! Well if you ever do you might want to try it in a mixed drink first. Drinking it as a shot tends to go straight to your head and guarantee some time hugging the toilet bowl. Thank you for stopping by and for your sweet comments! ♥
