4/ My Life in Alcohol Consumption, Part IV

Forties: I gave myself a party for my 40th birthday. I sent suggestions for what people should say as they arrived. A favorite was, "My god, I thought you were 22!" Lots of singing at the piano, lots of fun. I forget the name of the wine I served, but it came in a jug.

      I was clueless about wine (at the time).

    I bet your party was fun! I love the idea of telling people what to say when they arrived. If I was a party person, I'd do that for my next big birthday.

    Did you use the jug as an instrument at the end of the night?
