A footnote turned into an entirely new post

As the title says, i had intended this to be a "ps" at the bottom of the previous post, but it took on a life of its own b/c once you get me talking about Irish Carbombs... well i pretty much won't stop. So here's the original footnote-y post.

OMG! I just found this posting/recipe on hungry girl por vida It's a freakin' Irish Carbomb cake!

Anyone who knows me, knows that my FAVORITE DRINK in the whole wide world is an Irish Carbomb... sweet ambrosia! And now there's one in freakin' cake form!

For those of you unfamiliar with the wonderfulness of the Irish Carbomb, let me tell you about it.

Recipe:
half a pint of Guinness
half a shot of Jameson Irish Whiskey
half a shot of Bailey's Irish Cream

The two half shots are poured together into a shot glass and served next to the half pint of Guinness.

Once the imbiber is ready, you drop the shot into the beer [this part is notoriously messy] and chug it as fast as you can. Why? Well because if you don't, the Bailey's curdles and you end up with a nasty mess that someone just paid $6.00 for and should rightly be able to kick your ass for not finishing!! <-- voice of experience on the paying end!

Here's a pic. Compliments of Google Images. I know i've pics of my very own carbombs, but hell if i know where they are.
