Flask and Funnel #Gift Set by #FreedomFlask #Review

     Okay, so before you read this post and think I'm some kind of boozing mom, let me say this first... I drink a couple Smirnoff drinks a year, the fruity soda kind.  On occasion, about once every couple years, I will actually drink and have an adult night and play some card games or the like.  So you know... I almost don't drink at all.  We once got a 6-pack of Smirnoff (or was it Bacardi..?) and it stayed in our fridge the better part of a year without being touched.  However, I will also say this:  as someone who suffers from anxiety a lot, in and around social settings, that first buzz you get can be freeing.  It loosens you up without making you stupid, makes you forget about the worries and just be you.  As long as you aren't an alcoholic, that first bit can be really helpful in social situations and having it handy would be really nice.

     Streaker has a soccer game today.  It's a kids vs. parents match.  God blessed me with an extra boost in motivation today and I might actually grace everyone with my complete lack of soccer skills and get out there on the field.  Streaker wants me to.  We'll see how I feel later after a Xanax or two, cause even on a good out-going, go-get-'em day like today, I still need some help.  I have serious anxiety in those situations.  But days like these make me wonder if that's not the perfect reason to carry a flask.  That has to be the reason people do... to loosen you up and chase away anxiety just a little bit.  I'll stick with Xanax cause I'm the driver *wink*

     Of course, if you're gonna want to use that to help you loosen up, you'll want a small and convenient way to carry it.  After all, carrying around a bottle of Jack is definitely going to give off the impression of being a drunk.  Actually drinking in public PERIOD might give off the wrong impression, so you'd be best to do it on the sly.  And what better way to do that than with a flask?  It's small, it will fit in your pocket or or purse until you can get away with sneaking a drink, and can be easily slipped back into hiding with little effort.

     This particular flask gift set comes with a 2 oz. shot glass built right into the side of it.  It's expandable and collapses right down to a disc shape.  It also comes with a funnel to help fill the flask without creating a mess.  And for some reason it comes with a money clip.  To be honest, I'm not sure why.  Someone tell me, do flask carriers often use money clips?  Well, at any rate, it's a pretty nifty clip.  I think I'd use it in my wallet to keep my business cards together.  It would also be pretty easily engraved if you wanna go that route.

      The 8 oz. flask closes by an attached screw on cover, so it can never get lost and it's pretty secure.  It's a pretty neat gift set over all.  So if you have someone in your life that enjoys whiskey or a little something strong every now and then, this would definitely be a nice gift for them.  Do you ever experience anxiety?
