I know people can drink reasonably, but I've seen too many people hurt by alcohol. I'd rather be in control of my brain. :-) Now, dark chocolate? THAT I can pretty easily abuse.

I have been known to have a mixed drink but again never particularly want more than one and , the older I get, the less I am inclined. I would absolutely NEVER drive even if I have only had one glass of wine - no way, no how . I do enjoy the taste of red wine and it can help my neck and shoulder muscles to relax after the tension of work but it is not a must have. Just a nice treat :) And I live in wine country.... what can I say?Graciewildehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00142582724233027386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4790267042141485205.post-87696350023385631032012-08-13T16:42:46.264-07:002012-08-13T16:42:46.264-07:00I never liked the taste of it at all, esp. beer. ...I never liked the taste of it at all, esp. beer. I tried but it's icky. But overall I don't drink b/c I'm allergic to alcohol. The reaction is too uncomfortable and it's not worth it.
