Original Post 1 Week 11

The Troubles

To make an Irish Car Bomb, you pour a glass
of Guinness. But not too much--you have to chug
it all. Just enough to cover a shot glass.
Then, pour an ounce of Jameson and a half an ounce
of Baileys. Drop the shot glass. It bubbles.
Next to me, someone argues about napkins
or not enough peanuts and I'm listening to my mom
complain about the Catholic church and my grandmother,
while my father sits drinking and shaking his head.
