Once, when I was a college undergrad and before I had entered the convent myself, I had a TERRIBLE cold. One of the older Sisters gave me a small mayonaise jar (cleaned, of course) filled with whiskey. She told me to go home and mix it with lemon juice and use such and such ounces mixed with this and that.
Well, as a poor college student, I didn't have any this or that or lemons, and I could not figure how much whiskey was the equivalent of "X" ounces...SO...I just drank down the entire jar! I must say, I slept VERY WELL that night!
