Manic Mouths

This book was made by a man stuck in place, unable to get out of the same old thing. I worked on this group of ideas for less than a year. I was in a place where the food is legendary for being bad: jail. I wrote over three hundred recipes down while in jail. I loved it. There is nothing like working over an idea and only have your past interactions to work with, no books, no Internet, and no outside world.

In this book, I picked from memory, due to getting most of my work thrown away before I got out, my favorite recipes, like tequila steak, root soup, chocolate bacon burger, and any of them that called for alcohol to be thrown in and on the side as you eat. There are some good new ideas in this book.

This book also has my new milkshake list in it. The idea hit me like, Why is this not a thing? Smirnoff-flavored vodkas blended with cakes and pies with some of Americas favorite ice cream. I took the idea from jail and then got to a computer and looked up and wrote down as many pies and cakes I could from a large list of world pies and cakes to make these new blended drinks. The list is long, from China to Albania to Sweden to Ancient Rome to even the Philippines and lots from the USA and the United Kingdom.

New food, new cool drinks, and new ideas written in a way to let you make them as small and as big as you want.

Hope to see you at the Manic Mouth restaurant/milkshake bar in Las Vegas, Nevada, coming soon as it can.

Thanks.
