About Me
- Name: xenobiologista
- Location: Madison, Wisconsin, United States
My real name is Hwa Shi-Hsia (I hate writing it the Westernized way with surname last because it destroys the rotational symmetry of my initials.) My family is of southern Chinese genetic stock, Malaysian nationality, and speaks English, which tends to confuse people from around here. I finished public school in Malaysia and came to the USA for college and graduate studies.

How much booze did Lina actually imbibe here? Is that really bad for them?
Obviously it would take a lot less alcohol to get a housecat drunk, as opposed to an adult-sized human. But is alcohol inherently harmful to a cat?
Usually I like Bailey's with coffee and with friends, been a while since I had it straight-up like that. :)
...have you or Steve tried Frangelico? It comes in the cute "monk bottle" and makes for a good dessert liqueur. First time I had it was in a brandy sniffer as the drink accompanying Bananas Foster (made with Creme de Banana, caramel, sliced bananas, vanilla ice cream). Frangelico complements bananas foster (or most sweet desserts) pretty nicely.
Poor Lina... guessing the bottle was empty? :)
The bottle was pretty much empty, Steve is just posing in the first photo. We were having it with ice cream.
As for the cat...I think it's the sugar more than anything else that an animal would be likely to go for. Wild animals are known to get drunk on rotten fruit, I once read a story of a herd of African elephants that got drunk off'f sugarcane or something.
Thanks for the tip on Frangelico, I love bananas Foster but have only had nonalcoholic versions.
I try avoid red bready foods from Filipinos, it's usually mung beans. Hopia mungo and Halo-halo are both favorite Filipino desserts with mung beans, which Vicky enjoys but I abhor (yuck!). When you asked about the "what's the red cake?", that was my first fear when they offered me some. :)
...thankfully, it wasn't. It was just red velvet cake with cream cheese icing. No avacado, ube, jackfruit, durian (Pee-eew! :P), corn, or mung beans were used in the making of that cake. I'm sure I'll be enjoying enough of that this weekend! (Honestly, I like "miese con yellow" and the cheese-and-corn ice cream!)
Enjoy the Frangelico. Let us know what you think! ^_^
