Cowgirl Yogi

This special recipe should only be used under strict supervision by a loving partner or an extra friendly bartender. to kill a good yoga buzz: take 1 part - realizing your yoga class went a solid 12 minutes past the hour. you are now going to be late to pick up your child. awesome, breathe, call kids yoga studio and explain. add equal parts - catch every red light on the way to pick up child, with being cut off by a psycho talking on her cell phone while driving giant SUVs - twice.   shake to combine. normally this might be enough to kill your average yoga buzz, but we are talking about a really high quality buzz so you will need to add the following: 1 part - Your child screaming for treats from the back seat all the way up the highway mix well with 2 parts - after you give your child her water bottle she throws it hitting you in the arm and spilling water everywhere add 4 parts giant screaming phone argument with your partner over absolutely nothing. decide you need coffee. as ...
