Not sure (…) if more than three drinks is too much or not

That’s my usual quota with the Priest after mass on Sunday evening…We go to the café so the holy Priest (and elderly sacristans) can decompress from his busy weekend. Good Port Wine btw. 🙂

May God bless such a strong Padre for how me made me understand peace.
 
According to Psalm 104, the Lord has made wine to gladden our hearts.

Be that as it may, I have never had occasion to drink while on CAF.

Except as an emoji. 🍷😊
 
I might have a port wine or ginger wine once in a while…like once in three months .
 
I have had periods in my life of not drinking at all and periods of drinking a few times a week, but these days I only drink about once a month. It tends to make me sleepy which gets in the way of my doing other things. I also can sometimes get anxiety due to fluctuating blood sugar when it wears off.

I do agree with Ben Franklin though 🙂 He could have included whiskey in that quote also.

I have the occasional drink in the evening. Usually wine or a G&T. I don’t drink to excess. A medication I’m on doesn’t mix well with alcohol.
 
Any good port wine you recommend?

I very rarely drink wine but I cook with it.
 
Drinking alcoholic drinks puts me in a state of drowsiness and insomnia at the same time.

I’m drowsy but when I try to go to sleep, I can’t.

I may occasionally have posted after or while having a craft beer. One is my limit and having to drive myself everywhere means that I never consume at all if I have to work or attend meetings in the evening.
 
1 Mountain Dew (20 oz) every morning. If not for worries about weight and the desire to avoid Type II Diabetes, I would drink it all day long.

Numerous Diet Cokes throughout the day. (around 6-8 or more, a mix of 20 oz bottles and 12 oz bottles, don’t like fountain soda, but I’ll drink it in a restaurant)

Caffeine-free Diet Coke after 9 p.m.

You can see why I avoid alcohol. Addictive personality.
 
Happy Birthday, mrsdizzyd! 🍰🥳🍻

Just took a swig of a leftover warm beer sitting by the couch in your honor. I had my monthly drink a night or so back, fell asleep before I got through the can
 
I’m having a lunchtime beer right now ! But I’m British it’s one of our two days of sunshine per year and I’m on holiday so that’s my excuse 😉 most of the priests I know love a tipple
 
In fourteen years here, and tens of thousands of posts, I have made two I regret. Both were done when I had in excess of two drinks (I will decline to say how much in excess.) Now my rule is to never drink and post.
 
I don’t generally drink. My wife and I will share some wine from time to time, and when our friends are coming over we’ll pick up some Angry Orchard. Outside of that, maybe a margarita at family gatherings, but that’s about it. I don’t have any issue with it in moderation, I just don’t really care to drink much.

I have never, to my memory, posted with any drinks in me.

Do you like coffee? Because you could swap coffee for all the sugared beverages. Mountain Dew is pretty high in caffeine, but coffee at least has antioxidants and some health benefits.

Coffee addict of the highest order here (My kids got me a 64-ounce coffee mug for Father’s Day). It’s a glorious beverage and has a lot fewer calories than soft drinks.

Coffee alone has no calories. I drink it with milk, no sugar. About 2 or 3 a day. More than that makes me overly anxious.
 
I have a pretty Hugh tolerance for caffeine so it doesn’t bother me that often, but I do switch to decaffeinated if I start getting jittery.
