			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You know how sometimes your days go by in a blur?  These past two weeks have been like that for me, but it&#8217;s all good.  With a little juice here and there, everything just seemed to fall right into place.  Yes, my name is Noemi Twigg, but no, I am not an alcoholic.  I do <strong>appreciate</strong> a good drink, though. (Who doesn&#8217;t?)</p>
<p>If you share the same sentiments about alcoholic <a href="http://www.forevergeek.com/2009/08/25/buzz_versus_bulge_caffeinated_drinks_chart/">drinks</a> AND if you&#8217;re a <a href="http://www.forevergeek.com/tag/star_trek/">Star Trek</a> fan, here is a bunch of drinks that will definitely not leave you wanting.  Then again, you just might want to keep on drinking, if only to sustain the whatever illusion you may be under (e.g., that you are actually interacting with species other than our own).  <span id="more-23122"></span></p>
<p>I found this awesome list at <a href="http://www.geekologie.com/2009/04/cocktails_for_the_trekkie_booz.php">Geekologie</a>, and while it is admittedly more than a year old, the drinks can be considered timeless.  If you&#8217;re planning a party any time soon (Halloween is coming up, but you don&#8217;t really need to wait that long, do you?), you can kick things up a notch by making these drinks.  I chose several that I think will be the best hits. (Remember: drink moderately.  After all, &#8220;once alcohol hits that green blood&#8230;&#8221;)</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">Now I am no expert when it comes to cocktails, but these look simple enough.  Anyone want to drink this weekend?</p>

<p>As with my non-trekkie meerkats, hind legs and tails are wired with pipe cleaners to allow them to self stand.</p></blockquote>

<p>They&#8217;re unbelievably inexpensive, too, with the first one being &pound;2 (about $3) and then others ordered at the same time just &pound;1 (about 70 cents). I&#8217;d charge more, but there you go. They can even be knitted to request, including other key characters.</p>
<p>The Enterprise isn&#8217;t included, though.</p>
