21
Tomorrow, Son 1 will be 21. Amazing!
He’ll celebrate with a big breakfast in a nearby village (the have a "bread festival") and then have some buddies (and a buddiette) over for lunch.
And we get to celebrate with him. What fun!
In Switzerland, at 16 you can buy beer. At 18 you can buy wine and other drinks that are bad for you, get your driving license, vote and shoot a bazooka (do military service). And file your own taxes.
But 21 is still a big deal. Or so we think…

Here’s to Son 1, buddies, but most especially, to buddiettes.
But I must beg to differ: wine in moderation is not “bad for you.” My internist calls it “a marathon in a bottle.” From the way my body feels these days, that may be the only kind of marathon I complete in the future.

A cold one at 16? Interesting. Congrats to Son 1 and enjoy the time together.
