We used lemon basil from our garden and made a infused syrup with it that went lovely with vodka and lemon ... delish ! ! Then we went out to a Thai restaurant and had more drinks and food . It 's pretty funny because you can tell that the people who have children definitely do not get out enough ... we had way too much fun ( or way too many drinks ... he he ) ! Other than that , we have n't been up to much .
Question: Why is the narrator having drinks ?
