Theresa: “Couldn’t you have popped me out a week earlier?”
Me: “You were 3 weeks early as it was. Why?”
Theresa: “Formal is a week before my 21st birthday. I won’t be able to drink.” Then she thinks a bit. “Maybe they won’t proof me. Or if they do, maybe they’ll let it slide since I’ll be 21 in only 6 more days.”
Speaking of drinking, I think this is an appropriate place to get to another of Lanny’s comment about adult drinks.
On New Year’s Eve, 2 years ago that “Anonymous in a Hick Town” poster was visiting with her almost fiancĂ©e. We decided we wanted to make Chocolate Martinis but we didn’t have all the ingredients. We did find a drink called a Chocolate Monk but I decided to change it around a bit. The resulting drink was renamed.
I felt it appropriate for it to have Frangelico in it, don’t you think?

Mix equal parts Bailey’s Irish Cream, Kahlua, Frangelico, and Creme de Cacao. Shake well with ice.
There you have it – my very own drink.
“Another of Lanny’s comments about adult drinks” Goodness, I sound like a lush, don’t I?!?
This sounds really yummy (there I go again). I have almost all the ingredients (wow, I’m not doing much to save my image here, am I). I might have to try it.

Which one of us has a batch of Limoncello and Sambuca steeping?? No, I’d say the lush is the NY person.
Quite a contrast – my mother daughter conversations and yours, eh?
