Good for you Jason. If you couldn't slow down before, stay off of it for your own good.
Now, untill you get pregnant or get pms... don't judge women  |

Besides you know you can get "beer taste" without the alcohol...NA beers taste quite similar but just dont have the alcohol. I dont know about you but I am an extremely good cook, and even to this day utilize beer in several different recipes that add a distinct beer flavor but burn off all the alcohol. Soups, stews, steaks, and even things like cookies can all be made really tasty with certain beer flavors. Me thinks you would enjoy the flavor of beer soup (ground beef with mexican spices/beans/tomatoes/miller lite) and cookies/brownies that have guinness in them. Just gotta find someone who gets creative in the kitchen to keep your taste buds challenged.  |
Amen...you can vent over the stove....then do candies, desserts with liquers... The playing in the kitchen is worth it....

N/A beers weren't around Talkeetna 25 years ago, Jason 
Once again, can anyone cite one case where one beer or one glass of wine damaged a fetus?
And yeah...I suppose I can cook some....
Jason, I think that drinking, to you, means getting drunk. It doesn't mean the same to everyone and its good that you recognize in yourself an inability to handle alcohol. For some people, the right glass of wine is a part of a good meal.
You've said that you had no reason not to drink, before...well, you actually did.
My concern is where does this sort of thing stop...as I've stated, pregnant women already know that abuse of alcohol can harm the fetus. Those silly signs in restaurants are just condescending.

I don't care for any sort of BBQ at all, thank you. The very thought of it makes me absolutely ill.
