Homemade Cocktail Recipes

My brother has this odd habit. Occasionally when we're out together, he would order about 2 or 3 different cocktails. Not to guzzle up himself. He kind of passes them around to everyone to sample, going, 'Okay, what do you think of this one?' Some of what's posted on the wall of this group sounds absolutely divine. Don't forget to check out the gallery too. I just wish there was more. Explore for ideas and inspiration to some adventures in liquid intoxicants.

What's great about this group: Some creative cocktail ideas.

Update (26 October 2023)
While there are several Facebook groups for cocktail recipes, it's unsure whether this incarnation connects to any of them.

Gorgeous Graveyards

The so-called festive season seems to have brought out something dark and weird in me, but it remains fascinating, therefore, I will continue. This group is dedicated to explore the inherent beauty of graveyards. Topics on the discussion board include 'Weird Experiences in Cemeteries', 'Ghosts captured in Photos', 'TIPS FOR NIGHT TIME PHOTOGRAPHY' and 'Death and Burial Customs'. One thread details the meanings of various symbols used on gravestones. There are over 1500 images in the gallery and some of them are very artistically done.

What's great about this group: I've spent the past two hours looking at the beautiful photographs, and I'm very reluctant to leave.

Update (24 October 2023)
While I can't be hundred percent certain that this is the same Facebook group, there is still a community called Gorgeous Graveyards where members (there are 1,1000 of them) share photos that capture the beautiful solitude of graveyards. Go here to visit or join.

DMA : The Dead Malls Association

Would the saving of our planet's natural resources result from the death of consumerism? Or should we try to save these temples of greed at all costs? Or should they be left to die of disinterest once they have outlived their purpose? Members of this group believe that dead malls should be preserved. There are just over a 100 images in the gallery, and two past events to visit and re-invigorate a selected mall. Perhaps we should care a little. For Christmas, hug your nearest dying mall. Show it some love.

What's great about this group: We are what we consume...

Update (24 October 2023)
This Facebook Group no longer exists, but there is a Facebook page for Dead Malls, which you can find here. The page has 13,000 followers.
