Maybe you are not aware of this but Maryland actually produces some fine wines. We can offer you a selection of them:
A thick stew made of chopped up chicken and cassava, which is perhaps the way you feel right now.
Enjoy!!! Let us know if you want seconds. Making it this far is something to be proud of, and we will honor such a request.
But, we can go a bit more. Tiafoe's parents are from Sierra Leone, and we can offer you a delicious platter of Kinghat, that countries national dish:A thick stew made of chopped up chicken and cassava, which is perhaps the way you feel right now.

Table for two. Mom & I want to order a nice Spanish meal and some Spanish Wine. Mom will order it for me.
The SP contest has been a blast.

What took you so long
This is a small photo of our new 26 patrons: They are covering their faces in shame, as they have that little feeling that.... damn, all the way to 4R in such a pool, and they fall like this?
But, worry not. We have prepared a fine meal. A very typical and exquisite example of Spanish cuisine. Cochinillo al horno (roasted baby pig): yep, actually, it kind of looks like a selfie. And, to wash that sour taste in your mouth: One swift gulp of that, and you will not care less about today's result.
Hey, seriously, you did very well. 6 days of successful picks is a brave accomplishment. Now, you can join us and root for more people to die.
Salud!

I'm the mug who picked Goffin, and then changed my pick at last minute to Alcaraz (to be fair, I was sure Goffin would win, but decided to save him for the QF, which I'm pretty sure he will win as well). I don't deserve a drink.

If that line of thinking were to exclude us from having a drink, we would all be monks in this place.Tolulops wrote: ↑Sun Jul 03, 2022 8:02 pm I'm the mug who picked Goffin, and then changed my pick at last minute to Alcaraz (to be fair, I was sure Goffin would win, but decided to save him for the QF, which I'm pretty sure he will win as well).

Grab a drink, get a plate of cochinillo, we will come up with some dessert later. 6 days of proper picks is already pretty good.

I just can't eat something that is looking at me and that drink sounds like it would knock me right onto my butt.

It is pretty strong stuff. ANIZ, a very common drink in the Mediterranean. Pretty much, liquid licorice. Not a drink I like too much, but a staple in the region.

Sigh. Thanks for the meal. There is some solace in going down in a badwagon, I guess...
