Sorry that link was for the letter T. This is the home page one.
There was a lot of discussion on a PSU football message board earlier in the fall on Boilo.
It’s gone now and not archived unfortunately.
The one thing I remember is that the hard cores insisted that nothing was to be used but Four Queens 101 proof whiskey.
If I can dig up anything else, I’ll freepmail you.
Glad you liked the combination.
I seldom have wine in the house that is usable for cooking. I like a sparkling Bellini (made with grape wine and white peaches from Italy).
Thanks.
Thanks for the recipe. I am going to try this one as soon as I can.

ANTIQUING GLASS CHRISTMAS ORNAMENTS
MARTHASTEWART.COM This simple technique lends new, shiny glass ornaments the muted, authentic appearance of antique mercury glass in. NOTE: As authentic mercury glass ages, it loses some of its luster and tends to darken in spots. DIY'ers will need a little paint and small sponges to get the effect.
Tools and Materials--- 1 small tube of white gouache paint, 1 small tube of black gouache paint, 2 small natural sponges, Tissues
How-To
1. Place tea each white/black paint in separate bowls. Dilute with water droplets til consistency of heavy cream. 2. dab entire surface with sponge dipped in white gouache cream. 3. While still wet, use tissues to gently dab creating a mottled look. 4. W/ 2nd sponge, lightly and sparingly dab a few places with black gouache. 5. Use clean tissues to lighten and blur the black spots, creating the appearance of flaked mercury glass. 6. Let dry for at least 1 hour.
