Can’t remember if I ever had a mai tai…I don’t think so. See, I’ll stick to wine because I don’t have to buy all that liquor!
@songoftheheart -
this is a go out thing lol. I had jimmy in my head as I waddled to the bar and said? mai tai please.
@starmanjones - Ah, well, I don’t get out. That explains it! LOL!
@songoftheheart - oh lol, did it ever occur to you that I turned the two one in late late 95 as in 1995. I remember many things and this mai tai moment might be 15-16 years old?
@starmanjones - Nope, never occurred to me! LOL! Back in the olden days when I did get out it was Jack and 7 or rum and coke. I still prefer the wine.
@songoftheheart -

@MichellelyNg - ready or am?;) of course you can skip the almond if you’d like, passion fruit will do
it’s why I investigate recipes and history.

I think I’ll have my non-alch wine early today. 
Or maybe I should start drinking again. 
@Big_Bang_Theory - No don’t start drinking save your carbs and calories for something good to drink like a chocolate malt
You made me want an orange Popsicle
@Big_Bang_Theory - sis caught you

@SisterMae - you know I know how to make a naughty booze Popsicle ringht?
