Starting last Wednesday, I am abstaining from booze (and other things) for 30 days.

I'm gonna miss my best friends Gin and Tonic.

Why?

It's a little late for lent.

No lent, not catholic.

Just, needing a cleanse. I have been a little rude to my body for a while and I need to be nice to it.

And in 30 days, I will be extra nice to it and give it a g&t.

Good on you if you're able to make it the 30 days - I think I would struggle with making it a week.

So next week, if you start getting all snippy, we can just blame it on the sobriety?

I can say undoubtedly, Shanor, in my case, yes.

Currently: Drinking the last of the Leinenkugel’s Snowdrift Vanilla Porter - I guess it’s going out of season.

START getting snippy? When did I stop?

But to answer your question: yes.

LMFAO!! You aren't kidding lol funny stuff!

BTW, my shot of choice nightly has been Nyquil! Swear this cold sucks argh! lol

I can't believe there's no alcohol in the house... Bah. I don't want to go out.

For shame Diz!! For shame! Gosh!!

I've got too many damned bottles in my freezer and I am refraining! Shit is backwards.

You know it's funny you say that was thinking of you when I read Diz's post lol

Drinking yummy rummy. It is simply root beer and spiced rum. Mix to taste.

Oh, and my secret addition to make it super delish? I put cake vodka in.

Yep. And I give some to my wife. And I shower and shave, because, you know what happens after you give your wife booze, right?

so very tired... and not enough booze in the house to make me sleep. I need more whiskey.

Fuck winter storms anyway.

Goblindad, your post makes me very happy I live across the street from the liquor store. No matter how snowy, I can hoof it and get some libations. (we haven't had a decent winter storm in 5 years . )

Same problem GD.

Where the hell is all the wine in the house? All I have is something called, "Smoking Loon" - it smells and tastes rancid, and it's a white.

Still, I might be desperate enough...

Wasn't desperate enough. Drinking Bellini Toscana Sangiovese 2011. Pretty good.

Drinking Guinness, doing some work from home.

how does it compare to the kopparberg strawberry+lime?

you legit? er don't wanna set good e.g. but no, had 1 of that last night but wasn't paying attention. safe tc

**Ignore Cod: Ghosts.. I took this pic from FB**

Kopparberg Naked Apple. It is so good! Usually €2.58 per can (which Ill never buy at that price) but was only 98c so I took advantage

I am currently infusing three types of vodka:

Pear Ginger (for the second time. I promised my hairdresser a bottle! )
Coffee (going to make this a coffee liquor, or "Homemade Kahlua")
Black Raspberry (going to try my hand at making "Homemade Chambord" by adding some spices and vanilla in a few weeks)

I started early in the season (holidays, for gifts) so perhaps when I free up my three big jars, I will try something else. A cranberry liquor would be awesome. I'd take any suggestions and give a full report on flavor! I know, I am generous.

You make me feel like my Skittle Vodka brewery is amateur!

That's because it IS, sweetcheeks! And, you are a college student. The concoctions you should come up with SHOULD be...low brow. Hell, when I was your age, I was mixing vodka with Tang. Not my classiest moment.  

The path ahead is treacherous, but at least we'll be drunk!

My mouth is literally watering, would love a drink right about now...or two. *sighs*
