Congratulations UpDownAround, on hitting triple digits, that's awesome.
I was another kid who was introduced to alcohol by my parents. I can remember being a little kid, being given tea with brandy in it when I was sick, when I was as young as 7. And then there were the deserts, ice cream with creme de menthe (nasty stuff) poured over it. No shocker here, I always wanted seconds when we had that, and I poured with a fairly heavy hand. And 3-4 oz can get an 11 year old pretty looped. Don't know what they were thinking - just repeating what they'd learned from their parents I guess.
Day 22 for me here, and happy with that. Getting my hair coloured and cut in celebration.
