After writing that down though .... it sounds kinda lame! Because I also feel the same way around the holidays, and well.... I guess there's temptation everyday, if there wasn't I wouldn't be where I'm at would I?
Yep, for 27 years I used everything as an excuse to have a drink, every day that ended in the letters d-a-y was like a holiday, so I was a daily drinker.
Lemonade tastes pretty good at a BBQ, so does ice tea, club soda with lime. Last weekend at a BBQ a friend made me a drink that was 1/2 Rockstar, 1/2 pink grapefruit juice. It was yummy!!
