Yes. I rather sober prayer for the young when you think about it. And it did make me think about my own mortality and I would wonder if I was going to die in my sleep.

"Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take"

It's understandable though because the Catholic Liturgy of the Hours prayers end every evening prayer with: "Lord, grant me a restful night and a peaceful death."

When was the last time you had popcorn?

I haven't had popcorn in quite a while.

Have you ever eaten part of a gingerbread house?

I've made gingerbread houses from scratch, and eaten little bits.
I'm not very fond of gingerbread or ginger at all, though.

same question

I don't recall if I've ever eaten a part of a gingerbread house. I'd take shortbread over gingerbread.

Have you ever had Turkish Delight aka Lokum?

Do you remember last Christmas when I made shortbread with my grandmother's secret recipe? I love it, too!

Yes I've had Turkish Delight.

Have you had Spanish coffee? (It's alcoholic, and served on open flame).

I've never had Spanish coffee.

Have you ever had Vietnamese coffee? Too sweet for me....

No, I don't think so.

Have you had Sake?

Yes I have, but I do not like it warm so I'm not a purist. I don't like any alcoholic beverage warm, actually.

Have you ever had a hot buttered rum?

I can't / won't / don't drink rum. It makes me really ill.
When I tried it in the past, I don't think it was ever hot buttered.

Do you like Corona?

The Mexican beer? It's ok. I'm not a big fan of beer in general. If I did get a beer, it would be a lighter colored beer like that or lager or pilsner. I don't like dark beer. If I drink a Guinness, I feel like I want to scrub my tongue multiple times.

White or red wine?

Ah, we differ! I like Guinness!

Red. Always red.

same question

We differ again. I drank enough red in my youth, but I think the tannins might give me a headache. That was also back before I would enjoy it in moderation. Maybe if I tried a small glass of good red wine I'd enjoy it. Between the two I would choose white.
