    One Of Those Bars

    I used to work in just such a bar. A lot of my friends were even too scared to come and see me there. It was in a very rough part of town and it had practically no security. It was terrible. I left first chance I got.

    Best House Drink You've Had At A Bar?

    That is not so big here in South Africa, or they just haven't caught on yet, but while traveling I've had a Bahama Mama. It tasted really good.

    Irish Up Coffee?

    I love coffee with a bit of whisky. It's really great especially now because we are in the middle of winter here. I just make sure that I don't get tempted to Irish up my coffee while at work...

    Do You Drink At Live Shows?

    Live shows just wouldn't feel so good if I didn't have a couple of beers, at least. I never get drunk because then you tend to miss out on most of the fun, but I do find that I have to drink a certain amount to get myself into the right sort of mood for it.

    What Are You Watching?

    I don't really have any scheduled viewing time, I generally just watch when I'm free, and I'll just choose from whatever is playing at the moment. I guess I'm not really a tv person. I much prefer reading to watching tv.

    Unusual Combinations

    I used to crave beer and coke when I was pregnant. I don't know why or how I came up with that combination in my head, but my doctor told me that it was ok to have a glass of the drink whenever the craving hit. I've never craved it again since then.

    Ever Tended Bar Professionally?

    I actually worked in a bar for over five years in my early twenties and it was the best time of my life. I got to do work that was exciting and fun and I met all sorts of characters you wouldn't believe. And the tips were great too. I wouldn't want to work as a bartender now, but back then it...

    Weirdest Mixed Drink You've Had?

    My stomach is very sensitive to what I eat or drink and I probably wouldn't be able to keep some of these drinks that I've seen written here down. The weirdest thing I've ever mixed was a sambuca and sprite. It tasted ok, but I felt funny afterwards.

    Cooking With Liquor

I was inspired by my little girl, she lovesd it when we spend time in the kitchen together making breakfast. Ican't wait to try out new recipes, and I especially want to try the ones that use liquor in...

    Craft Soda

    First I've heard of craft soda. I guess I always knew it and I've tasted some, I just never knew it was called that. Nice to learn new things everyday. Quick question, what does root beer taste like?

    Do You Have A Daily Drink?

    I don't drink everyday. I used to... But these days I have learned to discipline myself a little more and my body is thanking me for it. I only drink on weekends, and even then I don't drink on every single weekend. I found as I got older, I kinda had to slow down a little cos my body couldn't...

    Have You Ever Mixed Coffee With Anything Alcoholic?

    I saw it on a movie once a few years ago and I decided to try it out. I poured a bit of whisky into my coffee just to try it and see how it tasted and I was pleasantly surprised. Now I do it all the time. It's great.

    Caviar?

    I hate it, I hate it, I hate it. Even before I tasted it, I hated it. Urgh! Fish eggs.. am I the only one who is grossed out by this? I get that a lot of people love it, and it's expensive and all that, but I will never ever put any of that stuff in my mouth.

    Hip Hop Music

    I've never been a fan of hip hop but I have to admit, when I've had a few drinks it does start to sound good to me. Ok to be honest, when I've had a few drinks, almost everything sounds good to me...

    Do You Drink To Get Drunk?

    I got super drunk once, and I woke up the next day with no recollection of what had taken place the night before. That is never a good situation to be in. After that, I made myself a promise that I would never let that happen again, and I haven't.

    Social Media

    I use a lot of social media for my online business marketing, but personally, I also just check my facebook for a few minutes and that's it. Maybe I don't have enough friends or close family and that's why... Don't know.
