[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I used to live in Italy and most every Italian family I knew and those international expats who took on Italian ways, had a liquor drink every night before dinner (aperitivo) with snacks and a glass of wine with their actual dinner (and an occasional nice lunch). No one would ever dream of calling them alcoholics. You are basically doing the same thing. [/quote] No, OP isn’t doing the same thing. OP is using wine as a “drug” to relax and calm her mind. That is very different than drinking to enhance the flavor of food. The effects on mood are also very different than just drinking without food. OP is doing the equivalent of the come-home-from-work-martini of the 1950s. [/quote]
