We celebrated my father-in-law’s birthday last weekend and we talked and caught up with our relatives that night, talking about reward cards, health, our kids’ education and showbiz gossip over beer and cocktails.

Can you believe that this is my first alcoholic drink in more than a year? I ordered frozen margarita and didnt even manage to finish one glass of it without getting a buzz. I only drank half and stopped. I didnt want to get too drunk.
