DW and I are drinking a delightful little sparkling rose from France (not Champagne). $15, 7.5% alcohol, and pure strawberry fizz. Happiness in a bottle! Also went great with our turkey, potatoes, and broccoli for dinner, but even better with the chocolate truffles for dessert. Bring on the next bottle!!<br><br>
Anyone else drinking fizzy tonight? What is it? It's okay, beer drinkers are welcome, too (just this once).

I drank some apple juice with my supper after our shopping excursion to Walmart. And now I'm about to go to bed.<br><br>
Yep, we're some real party animals around here.<br><br>
Y'all have fun bringing in the new year.

Kyle...we'll make you "special apple juice" at GCT...AFTER the race!

Well... Glad someone asked... We abandoned our children with the neighbors and then had a nice dinner at a local eatery. My wife had a seared salmon steak with mushrooms and something green (spinach?) while I enjoyed pan roasted venison loin with risotto and little Italian onions (cippolini)... We then stopped at a friends house for some calzone and a few beverages and then we rescued our kids... Uh... Rescued our neighbors and now we're ready to party!!<br><br>
I'm on Miller Lite. Here's the good thing about Miller Lite - I can't get drunk on it. The bloat factor kicks in before I get hammered. Self limiting! How can you beat that?!?!?

 

[Tithers]

I thought I was the only one to get the beer bloat. I can't get drunk on it either.

 

[LeftRightRepeat]

Ain't it great? I only get in trouble when I switch to wine. Or bring out the limoncello. Oh boy.

 

[Stitcher]

ummmm....<br>
Is beer bloat when you have to pee more often than you can drink enough to get a nice buzz or drunk?

 

[Christie Runs]

Just water for me. Sad, I know. But I didn't sleep well last night. So I'm staying in.

 

[Tithers]

Beer bothers my stomach and gives me gas...I get full really fast on it...<br><br>
Oh...I totally expect y'all to break out the Limoncello next July when I come for a post-race visit!<br><br>
We don't need Christmas trees!

 

[Stitcher]

off to make snappy....<br><br>
back soon.

 

[LeftRightRepeat]

It's a deal!!

Mr. Otter made some tasty margaritas in our new Magic Bullet that we got for Christmas. Ok, so the Bullet was really for making baby food, but it does make a nice cocktail!! <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">

 

[Tithers]

I've had many a magic bullet margarita!<br><br>
LRR-you're buyin'!

 

[MBannon]

Who said anything about going out??? With a well-stocked cellar (a.k.a. the "Crawlspace"<img alt="wink.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/wink.gif">, you're ready for any occasion!<br><br>
Now if I could just find some self-limiting wine...

 

[jenotter]

It's really yummy...he even put in the last bit of the homemade grand marnier. Oh my.

 

[MBannon]

Magic bullet? The only magic bullet I'm familiar with is for making babies, not baby food. Well, technically I suppose it's for avoiding making babies, but whatever.

 

[Christie Runs]

The only alcohol I have is cheap wine I use for cooking. It will just put me to sleep. So just water tonight. Oh, and sugar cookies <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">

 

[Stitcher]

yuuuummmmm<br>
snappy is goooooood

 

[paulboth]

It's Guinness for me tonight. And from what I hear it is good for you<img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">. But only 3 or 4.
