LOL. It does read better. But I would never not have beer on hand. The beer fridge is empty. But the beer closet is well stocked.

I failed... had some beers several days ago. :eek:

I know some of us had some elderflower beverage discussions on here. I have not tried this but a friend posted this on FB with a cocktail that she made from it. Sounds good! Trader Joe

And... my friend just gave me a 12 pack of IPA...

Intended as a 100% non-judgemental question, but how long after one stops drinking alcohol does one go from regaling an interesting recent detail of one’s life to becoming one of those utterly dull tee-totallers that never seems to shut up about it. It’s somewhere in the gap between a month and year, by my reckoning.

I’ve been told I’m the same person, drinking or not. A complete A-hole, but interesting. During the 16 adult years I did not drink, no one knew the glass was full of nothing but club soda unless I had told them. But I’m exceptional. No doubt most people are as you describe them.

Well, yesterday I really just wanted some bourbon so I had the rest of the bottle of Woodford Reserve I had. It was maybe a shot and a half.

Today I decided to have some wine so I had a delightful Freeman pinot noir. I will have the rest of the bottle tomorrow. And then nothing until next Friday. I think restricting drinking to the weekends is a good thing.

Yay for drinking. I don’t get this dry culture - we can just enjoy legal products as we wish. Now in my city, bars are not legal, so I support the act of enjoying alcohol and not being inside a bar. I really don’t mind drinking alcohol or not, but it’s definitely been awhile. I really don’t know what to do with that cinnamon vodka.

So, why post on a thread called “Taking A Break From Alcohol”???
