"I Want Some Bloody to Love" Story

Do you remember as a kid turning off the lights, looking into a mirror and uttering "Bloody Mary" three times to conjure up the ghost of a woman who lived in colonial times that loved to eat kids to preserve her youth?  Yes?  No? Well, those were the good old days.  

Now when you turn off the lights, stare into the mirror and utter "Bloody Mary" three times you are probably hung over and wanting a drink, not a ghost.  A Bloody Mary is reputed to cure hangovers with its combination of a heavy vegetable base (to settle the stomach), salt (to replenish lost electrolytes), and alcohol (to relieve head and body aches).

Whether or not it really cures a hangover is less important than having an excuse to drink in the morning.  If anyone questions your decision, you can remind them that you are getting your daily servings of vegetables.  If life deals you lemons, make lemonade; if life deals you tomatoes, make Bloody Marys.
