Pop tarts is a good one, although I don't know, there was some chocolate flavor that really delivered.

High school prom comes to mind.

Do you know what...it actually came together! Not only that, the Substack gods much have put it somewhere for people to see, because I had an influx of new people subscribing who found me through the app. Who would've thought?!

I come from a non-drinking family--when my parents entertained, they had a bar for guests, but never partook themselves--so I don't like the hard stuff; and didn't start liking wine until around 2012. But it had to be Martinelli's Sparkling Apple Cider type of sweet, which I later learned is called dessert wine? Which makes sense. Moscato Rivata and Stella Rosa are my go-to's. On the rarest of occasions that I drink. This girl right here does NOT hold her liquor well. Never drunk, just sleepy. After less than half of a glass. I can't drink a whole glass of wine, btw, let alone half; I'm actually better off with a shot. LOL Reds give me a headache, so I just stick to the whites. I'm always up for trying something new, so would I like BS?
