“One thing kids like is to be tricked. For instance, I was going to take my little nephew to Disneyland, but instead I drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. 'Oh, no!', I said, 'Disneyland burned down.' He cried and cried, but I think that deep down he thought it was a pretty good joke. I started to drive over to the real Disneyland, but it was getting pretty late.”

And, they can't even get the color right (which, if they could, would onlymake it slightly less ugly)

Oh, yeah. Way too orangey to be considered crimson.

Can Allie tell the difference?

I have been given a great honking bottle of mango-flavored Absolut vodka. Is there any way at all to use this stuff to make any sort of non-disgusting drink?

No.

My mom's boyfriend loves the coconut-flavored one. Just the smell makes me want to puke.

Maybe you can use it in place of some of the water in mango pudding. Since there's so much mango puree in it, you might not notice the disgustingness of the mango-flavour in the vodka.

Someone gave my non-vodka-drinking husband the honker-size Absolut Mandarin as a tip. Tastes like nothing found in the natural world. I thought maybe I could disguise it in a drink with lots of ginger and lime. Nope.

I think I'll leave the liquor cabinet unlocked this weekend in hopes that my stepson will steal it.

Do the Alky thing. Drink it quickly and get really drunk while watching a Seinfeld marathon. Smoke a lot of cigarettes too.

I'd forgotten that stuff. Someone gave me a bottle last year as a thank you gift. Poured it down the drain rather than waste the space in the liquor cabinet. Is the mango stuff just as vile?
