Oh gosh, that reminds me, I have a bottle of Strawberry Hill in my fridge. One of my HS BFFs gave it to me for my 40th. I'm 42 now...I assume it doesn't age well, like a fine wine.

Never drink margarita’s. Should I 🤔? I did drink tequila, I was always my first drink of the evening back in the days... 15 years ago... legal age to drink was 16 for wine and beer and 18 for string liquors back then.

Those are brand names I haven’t thought about in forever, @wine and tgrimes. Those little bottles of Sutter home white zin and the bright red Bartles and James were in rotation too. |

OMG, a bottle of Sutter Home white Zin was my go to in college! I just drank it right from the bottle, don't know why. |

My coworker gave me this.  Bless her heart. She doesn’t drink. She was making Mother’s Day gifts and had one left over. It will not be getting drank. |

We buy the little Sutter Homes or like brands to keep in the fridge at work. Their perfect since we don't all drink the same thing and we don't want to open an entire bottle here. Easily store and disposed of. 1 takes the edge off and makes you not want to kill certain coworkers.

Although I'm not sure individuals like you and I should be sending alcohol in the mail to each other? I guess don't put your return name and address on it! :-) |

On the rocks with salt. Gimme a recipe and I’ll make them when the sun decides to appear. And I did drink my tequila the old fashion way; like your hand, sprinkle salt and like again, drink the tequila and eat a slice of lemon 😉. |

I only drink them at restaurants. But I found this for you: Mix together and shake. Serve over ice with a salted rim. 60 ml tequila 30 ml Fresh lime juice 15 ml Orange liqueur 15 ml Agave syrup OR this one: 1 oz Cointreau 2 oz blanco tequila 1 oz fresh lime juice |

Why didn’t we play flip cup in Denver?
I think my only serious aversion at this point is to Butterscotch Schnapps. 🤢
Back in the day, I was all about shotgunning beers. Mostly Natural Ice because, cheap.

I had muffins with mom this morning with T and then I got a new washing machine delivered. Now I want to wash all the things! Oooh what did you get? I went to a local mom and pop appliance store that’s been around forever on Tuesday. I walked in, told him I hated my moldy front loader that’s only 3 years old, I have a lot of kids and do a lot of laundry and told him to order me what meets my needs. He picked a top loading Whirlpool. I’m on the third load and I now own towels that don’t smell worse after washing than they did before! |

Maybe this is a confession? I have had at least 1 margarita a day for at least the past 10 days. Costco’s Kirkland mix is really good. Does not come with alcohol in it though.

Chopped a lot of hair off today, it's blown out so who knows how it will curl up, hopefully ok! My stylist is fun to chat with but she spent the whole time explaining why I need an au pair with 3 kids and our logistical nightmare. Highly unlikely lady. And yes I know there could be other schools we like closer to home, but I don't have the energy to research, see if we could get a slot and then maybe change jobs. A margarita sounds delightful.

And j got #49 on the French program waitlist and #233 on the Spanish. Humph. I hear they go up to about 30s typically, so chances are slim he will get in. Oh well.
