[Divine Inspiration]

I LOVE Perrier!!! It's wonderful...so is San Pellegrino. I'm sipping on S.P. right now.

Sorry, O.T. when are you gonna update your album?

February - Circuit City just gave me a refund for my computer that blew up (it was under warranty) - I just gotta go buy a new one. I don't wanna put any pics of me in my bra on my work computer.

And I'm enjoying a wine glass of lemon Perrier right now. I love using stem ware (glasses).

S.P. is very good too. They even have Perrier in larger (taller) plastic bottles now. I went crazy between Thanksgiving and Christmas because they had Perrier on sale for only $1 a bottle for over 5 weeks. I loaded up....

A Toast for your dreams come true...Amen.

I didn't really drink until I was on my honeymoon. You know on cruises, they have all those pretty, colorful, weak tropical drinks. I partook.

I only drink occasionally now. I can take it or leave it. I only drink what tastes good to me, and I know my limit. I weigh a buck fifteen on a good day, so that limits me to one glass of whatever it is.

Yeh! I've seen those plastic bottles...I was glad when they came out with those because they're more practical than the glass bottles.

I wish I had known about that sale!! That's a great deal.

Me too. Otherwise your posts would get a little colorful. ]

I like using stemware for mineral water too. My ex used to look at me funny for drinking it out of those glasses, but I like the effect. It's elegant.

My first and last drink was on my 21st birthday. I just don't like the taste of alcohol at all. I perfer my Sparkling Apple Cider or Sparkling Grape Juice. It always "hits the spot" for me!!!

I forgot about the Getting The Most From Your Booty thread. I saved it for later ...my king is coming and you (and God) said he wouldn't tarry...I receive that in the name of Jesus.

Amen and Amen....I totally agree. "He that shall come will come and shall not tarry."

I so love the word of the Lord. God simply does not lie. He can't lie...for He is Truth and He is God...

Somebody praise Him....Jesus, Jesus, Jesus. Praise Him. The greatest High there is....His name is Jesus!

 

[Divine Inspiration]

Praise God from whom all blessings flow!

You are opening a can of worms, aren't you? But to answer your question: Rarely. 1-5 times in a year (ie. anniversary, Valentine's Day, or birthdays) and mainly with my husband. We don't drink socially with other people.

Usually, we even toast New Years and Christmas with Apple Cidar because of the family and social aspect of these holidays.

The word can be interpreted in many ways concerning this subject. However, we choose not to socially drink, drink often, or over indulge out of sensitivity and respect for anyone who may stumble (including ourselves).

ETA: As dlewis said, I personally don't see anything wrong with a sip here or there. But wisdom and jugdement should be used. I don't look down upon Christians (condemn them in my mind) who choose to drink more often than we do or who drink socially. I just think a believer should ask herself or himself "why am I drinking alcohol?" If any of the answers lead to sin. It's best not to touch the stuff.

I certainly agree with you. Couldn't have said it better. But I haven't had a drink in over a year. I've never been a drinker though. DH had some issues with excessiveness and because of him, I won't even have a drink ocassionally. But to each her own.

No. I tried it once when I was young and being stupid but never got into it. Plus it takes very little to get me drunk. I once got tipsy from taking Nyquil, no lie, lol. I also witnessed my step-grandfather beating my grandmother when he would get drunk and my other grandfather died of liver complications and he was a heavy drinker. I don't judge people who do but I hate when people try to convince me to do it. Q

I've always wondered why people did this (the bolded comment)...as if there is something wrong with not drinking. I've been in situations where people have looked crazy at me for not wanting to drink

Okay non drinkers, here is a drink for you to try. 4 ounces OJ, 4 ounces of cranberry juice and a splash of Sprite on top.

Yummy !
