Renee. I am not disputing the facts as you have stated. You know very well as you were the one that kept telling her that help would be made available as her situation was deteriorating. We all want to drop it - it's Reggin that keeps insisting on a fantasy version.

Good -- no GREAT post, Dober :hail:

I'd warrant that everything happening at that period of time was more of a surreal nightmare for Chrys than a fantasy. Trying to look back and make some sort of logic out of it is impossible.

That's because I just turned 55. You can look up to me as the mature, matronly, wise woman now.:rofl1:

Reggin , I just want to say that you've made the many beds you've had to sleep in ......next time remove the rocks that are under the mattress pad . You'll sleep better .

You better believe it.

Ah, so . . . . and serve grasshoppers

 

[drmom777]

I haven't had one of those since we lived in Illinois and went to Wisconsin supper clubs. Grasshoppers and brandy sweet old fashioneds. And friday night fish fry...ah the memories.

hey, Renee, I might be going to Tennessee once a month. I think I will be allowed to volunteer with Remote Are Medical for their monthly clinics there. And the director claims to have a connection to the residency programs at Knoxville, so I may actually wind up there. Fate?

 

[sparks19]

I"m glad I skipped the drama and got right to the good stuff. My Gma still makes grasshoppers. I have an old fashioned about twice a year, but haven't been to a supper club for fish or chicken in years. Every weekend we used to go snowmobiling. Stop at a supper club and have chicken. Friday fish fry's were more of a fall thing. That brings back memories though, but haven't been up there in quite a while

Ah ! I remember my Grasshopper days !! Mainly for those who want to drink , but don't like the taste of the real stuff !!

 

[Boemy]

That's me . . . I only drink alcoholic beverages that taste like fruit, candy, or pie.

Have you ever had a cosmopolitan? Well....my daughter, Emily made them and she did them a little differently. She used vanilla vodka (vanilla is a must...yum) equal parts of cranberry juice and ruby red. OMG! That is sooooooo good. It's so refreshing.

Or another good one I really love is a mojito. That's rum, some kind of simple syrup and something else (sprite or soda water...not sure) and mint all squished up. That is super duper yummy.

I like the real stuff too....love an old fashion or even just a good bourbon with seltzer or even straight if it's smooth enough.

I only drink (mostly) when I go out karaokeing. (LOL) And only one or two...usually beer. Or out to dinner on my b-day....had a mojito. Woo hooo....I really splurged. It was like $7.00.

OMG, that sounds so good. I will have to try that some time.

Normally I just opt for smirnoff because I am lazy . Here in oklahoma the alcohol percentage is only 3%. Now thats just ridiculous. If you cross the border to MO its 5%!

Drink prices are ridicules today !!! My Mom ( at 93 ) still took her flask of rye and ordered a glass of ice !!! A roll back from the 30s I guess !
