AV...is yammering that nice ladies knit and drink wine...it is civilized.
Creative cooks drink wine...remember the Galloping Gourmet...Justin Wilson? Yes they are both dead.
You should totally start knitting again, although as an full-blown knitting addict I can't imagine anyone quitting.
Knitting sober is great. I no longer pick up my knitting and have to rip back everything I did the night before when I was wasted.

Just my opinion, but I think it's never too early to laugh at the AV.
My mother is coming to visit today. She drinks a ton of wine every night. My AV is having a field day with it.
You can't just sit there and watch her drink. You're going to make her feel bad. No way can you resist when wine is right in front of you for days on end. It would probably be better to just wait to quit until after she leaves...
