    Timor-Leste Cripes I had to look it up. I'm glad that I didn't have the very infrequent mixed drinks that I've been known to imbibe in this time of year.

      Wow, that's a new one on me as well. It's in South East Asia, the official language is Portuguese, and the currency is the USD. That's a bit of a mix . . . maybe like your drinks, Sal.

        It is. I looked it up on google maps - it sits above Australia, this side of NZ, just south of Indonesia and SE of Singapore. So it's in the right spot to be one heck of a mix.

        I got that because I've had a whole half glass of wine in the last week and that seems to be one of the least drinking countries on the globe. I only drink on the average of one glass of wine every three weeks or so when my roomie is around trying to share hers on the weekend if I'm home.

        Now - if I'd taken this on a usual Christmas season day that I was home with family and old time pals - they'd have nailed me for the Ruskie I am for sure. LMAO.

        I'm also Kuwait, per this "booze calculator". My alcohol consumption is about 1 glass of wine every 2 to 3 years... And even then, I rarely finish the glass. Just have never been a drinker.

        Now, if it asked about my chocolate consumption...well, that's another story!

          You lush I'm pretty much the same.
          As for chocolate, I've been on a Nutella kick lately.

            Yeah, I hear that a lot, lol!

            As for Nutella, I've never tried it. I'm pretty much a milk chocolate gal, straight up! Unfortunately, dark chocolate (which actually has some health benefits) doesn't do much for me. It's okay, but I can take it or leave it.

              Same here, Cheryl. The only dark chocolate I can handle is Dove's dark chocolate. Have you tried it?

                I haven't tried Dove's, Terra (but will have to now ).

                One kind I've tried that's not too bad is Chocolov - they have varying degrees of dark chocolate, but of course their milk chocolate is my favorite.

              I like milk chocolate myself. That and dark chocolate, white chocolate, pretty much anything chocolate
              Nutella reminds me of chocolate icing. I've decided it's a health food because of the Cocoa and hazelnuts in it

                I'm Kuwaiti, apparently, at the moment (who knew?).

                Those nice Lithuanians are joining the "single European currency" on January 1st: that will sober them up, a bit.
