Surprising....no one has a beer or sangria or margarita on a weekend afternoon - in the summer, especially? I don't drink often but when I do, anytime after noon is fine.

I run 70 miles a week at age 57. I drink whenever the hell I want to and still can't keep weight on me.

Hardly ever drink alcohol as I've never really liked it, but if I do it's wine...something celebratory or specifically complimentary to a lunch or dinner. Never got into drinking just for its own sake or to "unwind". Yeah I'm the dumb one at potlucks who always has to ask the host for something other than the beer or wine the guests contribute. Tap water or whatever the kiddies are drinking if I'm lucky .

You can't drink all day if you don't start in the morning.

Has this changed in retirement?
When I worked, I had 2 glasses of wine after work. Now that I'm retired, I have 2 glasses of wine about the same time.

I rarely drink, and never in the morning.
