After we got settled in to a new house I had the brainstorm to have a housewarming party involving a suckling pig. I found a guy in Vermont who had the raw material for we drove up with a cooler full of ice to get the pig. It worked well except for a couple of snags. I missed the part about it being Rosh Hashanah and that cut into the guest list. They may not have come to a pig roast anyway. I had a keg of beer since most of my friends were beer drinkers but my mother was coming and she didn't like beer so I got the pina colada makings for her. The beer drinkers decided to switch to pina coladas. Fortunately I could cut through the backyard to the convenient package store and get more supplies. The worst was yet to come as the beer drinkers reacted poorly to the unfamiliar booze. Retching was heard from the bushes. That also left me with the keg of beer. I took it to work and put it in the shop refrigerator where it was appreciated. Workplace demeanor was looser back then.
