Can you find that post(s)?

They failed to mention that she was answering a question about if she had any stories of times she did something on her own out of sheer determination, like opening a bottle of wine or baking a cake.

She answered that she once drank an entire bottle of wine but doubted she could have opened it, and she had opened a beer bottle with her teeth and gone sky diving

She mentioned several times when asked about drinking and if her carers were involved in it, that she had friends and four brothers to help her drink if she wanted to.

               Do you have any fun stories of things you have done/tried on  your own out of determination, like cook a meal or bake a cake find a  way to open a bottle of wine and drink it all?

@umkay

While I’ve definitely drunk a whole bottle of wine before, I don’t think I’ll ever manage to open the bottle on my own. Ditto cook a meal or bake a cake. Nevertheless, I can open a beer bottle with my teeth, I can do a pretty decent caricature sketch of just about anyone with a pencil held in my mouth, I’ve been skydiving, and I’m definitely doing SCUBA this summer.
