Tips on maintaining the sanity around the relatives at the holidays, part 1 of ?

Sometimes family visits go just that much smoother with the application of a little booze. I know any extended visit I have with [livejournal.com profile] votania's family is improved by being ever so slightly intoxicated, enough so that I just don't give a damn.

Problem is, going around smelling of booze, especially if it's an alcohol-free party, is a bit of a social faux pas. Going around smelling of mouthwash, on the other hand...

Ingredients:
Travel-sized mouthwash bottle, cleaned
Peppermint schnapps
Food coloring

Mmmm, mouthwash.

A judicious application of alcohol probably would have made my ride with the Dead Deer Flotilla much more tolerable.

However, there were several problems with this plan. One, my sense of self-preservation dictated that I remain alert and unimpaired. Two, I was supposed to be driving home. And three, all they had was Budweiser **blech**

A brilliant solution. I shall acquire the means to do this before my next visit to the ex's. You may have saved my sanity!
