Well, I don't keep alcohol in the house and we never serve alcohol here. It's important to me to keep it that way. I'm seldom around alcohol. I don't mind being at someone's house where wine is offered at dinner, but I don't want that in my home.
I had to make lifestyle changes. I love doing brunch and I make great waffles.
Brunch can often be followed by a walk on the nearby beach.
I think you're in a place where you might need to make some hard decisions. It seems that New Year's Eve showed you that inviting people over for an evening is not a great idea. Are you ready to embrace change? I hope so.
