Mother-Daughter Conversations

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?

Chocolate Monkling:

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? :smile:
