I'll take it a step farther. Any time we sit down at a restaurant, seems like the first thing the server does is hand us a drink menu. Ask us is they can start us off with a glass of wine or a cocktail. Even a restaurant as benign as Applebee's! We literally left an IOP meeting and stopped for dinner. The gal asked if she could start us off with a cocktail, when we said no, she let us know that they had drink specials at that time. Okay, thanks, but no. I never realized how pervasive it was until we were dealing with recovery.
