Today is the Grand Opening of the Snuggly Duckling~ Yay~

[The first thing anyone sees is Rapunzel one arm in the air as she cheered her little heart out. She was so happy with what she had been doing for the past few weeks. She had managed to get everything ready within that time including all the painting that she did by herself.]

I have my menu sorted and over time I am slowly going to introduce various drinks, but right now it's mostly basic drinks like teas, coffees and juice. But I am planning on figuring more as I go so keep an eye out.

[She had lowered her arm in that time, making her way over to the backroom or at least her most important room. As she stepped inside the room seemed bright and cheerful as there were paintings everywhere, if one were to look closely they were painting of various people she knew and had met during her time here.]

While I have that business the money that it makes will be going into this venture. My Light Up a Dream project. I'm planning on helping those who cannot normally achieve their dreams and helping them. [She smiled brightly.]

it may not be as wonderful as various other business ventures, but seeing the face of someone whose achieved something they could never have dreams possible... Then to me, it was worth it. [She was carrying the device as she went and sat down in the chair by her new desk.]

Though with all of this I still have one question... Can anyone tell me why people like to drink alcohol? I am admittedly a bit curious and was thinking about learning to make some drinks for the Snuggly Duckling and just wanted to learn more

Alcohol makes you relax and feel easy. You just feel less stressed, less upset, less whatever. Plus it makes it easier to talk to people, strike up a conversation, dance like nobody's watchin', all that good stuff.

[ivegotadream]

Oh. I must admit you put it in a really good way. A couple people brought up the fact people use it to drink away problems rather than facing them.

But I did enjoy you bring up the positive stuff.

[quick_clean_pure]

I mean, admittedly, people do it for that, too. But the way I look at it, sometimes you need a little time to not deal with your shit, and it can help with that, even if you deal with all of it later.

Plus, honestly, most of the time you're drinking, you're doing it with friends and other people and having a good time.

[ivegotadream]

I think... I'm trying to understand not wanting to face one's problems. But it's not really getting to me quite yet.

So it's a way to have a good time with friends. I wonder if I should try sometimes.

[quick_clean_pure]

Probably just means you're either good at facing yours or yours haven't gotten to you yet.

You could give it a shot, go out with some people you trust and like having a good time. Maybe get a couple mimosas or something easy and just have a fun brunch or something. [He guesses, at least. He doesn't know what women who aren't used to alcohol should try first, but brunch sounds safe to him.]

[ivegotadream]

I did face one problem I had, but I haven't really come across many.

Though I have another question. This all sounds fun and all but... What's a mimosa?

[quick_clean_pure]

Doesn't sound like a bad existence, then.

A mimosa's just orange juice and champagne. It tastes like orange juice but bubbly and a little sharper.

[ivegotadream]

Well, I like orange juice... I might just try that.

[quick_clean_pure]

It's a pretty good way to ease yourself into it. And it goes with breakfast & brunch, so there's that, too.

[ivegotadream]

I've never had brunch before either. but I will take your word on it.

Thank you.

[quick_clean_pure]

No problem. If you want any other drink recommendations, let me know.

[ivegotadream]

I might have to take you on that later, when I get around to it, of course.

[quick_clean_pure]

Sure, just shoot me a message if you do, or you can find me tending bar at Fortuna Palace most nights.

[ivegotadream]

I will remember that. Though I must admit... never been to Fortuna before, so if I get lost I will remember to ask you.

[quick_clean_pure]

It's over in Nova City. It's a pretty nice place, and got some gambling, if you're into that. If you need help finding it, I can give directions.

[ivegotadream]

I will admit. Never gambled. But I am sure I can find it.

[quick_clean_pure]

Yeah it ain't hard to find. Just follow the folks looking itchy to play some card games and you're all set.
