I think that 5 to 7 drinks a week is moderate drinking as well. But liver jokes are kind of uncommon, and that's why I have tossed one in every once in a while. Please don't let me be cause for any alarm, and I will give some thought to being more respectful of that concern in the future. While spleen jokes aren't quite as funny, there may be some benefit to changing it up a bit and rotating through organs. :)

I'm listening carefully for more comments on 1:1, 1.5:1 and 2:1 sugar syrups. I also prefer cold process and never have any trouble with dissolving the sugar because I learned a number of years ago that my blender makes sugar syrup very quickly and very easily. (I ran out of syrup mid-party and had to improvise.) Just blend the hell out of it and you're good to go in a matter of minutes. The air bubbles disappear pretty quickly. So heating is simply not required.
