I am at the Lovecraft film festival, hooray! And have been since last night. Yesterday, I saw some awesome short films and La Herencia Valdemar which, alas, I did not care for. But my program for today looks totally awesome!

Also, I went to the Hollywood farmer's market, where I bought cookies and drinking vinegar. OMG you guys, drinking vinegar is amazing. I've been intrigued by the idea for a while now (much like the vinegar pie, which I will someday master) but had never managed to try one. But there was a booth with samples at the market, so I had to make the attempt. And it is great - tart and fruity and totally refreshing. They mixed it with club soda, which was very good, but I kinda want to try it with a sweetened soda, because I have a huge sweet tooth. 8) I only bought the blueberry lemon kind, because they had sold out of the mint, alas. The bottle wants a corkscrew, so I have to wait till I get home to drink it.

Now I totally want to make my own. I think an apple ginger one would be great and if you can do mint, maybe you do basil. (Everything is better with basil.)

Have any of you experimented with drinking vinegars? Tips, recipes, horrible warnings?
