Soccerdot -- Tuaca is some evil s*^t! I used to be a bartender at a Moose Lodge (times were bad!) and all the yokels came out and drank Tuaca and sang kareoke. That was a hoot!
It is pretty good on the rocks and sipped, but I don't think I can ever stomach a shot of it again!
Well, I am on glass of wine #2 for the night, and had 3 Sam Adams light with dinner. Luckily I can usually refrain on Sat. nights! Ah, some days we just go over a tiny bit. My *kitten* isn't going to get huge overnight and 3 beers -- that isn't how it happened the first time
Happy long weekend, lushes!0 -
Oh well... totally fell off of a couple of wagons tonight. Had three drinks... ate pizza... had cookies for dessert. Over by at least 1,000 calories. I hate when that happens! Always alcohol related! Oh well there's always tomorrow:-)0

lots of vodka last night, pulled pork sliders. ugh, this was after pizza for lunch (yuck). today will be drininking I am sure the weather is beautiful. tomorrow is brewery tour (3 different ones with tastings at all three) then a fancy bar for apps and drinks and then Gameworks for the rest of the night. Monday is a birthday party brunch with lots of champagne and really good food. Only after all of that, I will be good. :laugh:0

I had two diet maggies last night. I rode my bike 40 miles though, so I still was under on net calories.
I believe red wine and Italian food is on my dinner menu tonight. A night out.0 -
I really am a wine geek. Here's photos of my cellar, the wine bottle painted on the wall of my living room, and the cork screw I built as an art project hanging from my ceiling. When I do stuff, I tend to go all the way.

I fell of the MFP wagon for a few weeks. But I refound my motivation and am back at it. Solpwr - I love your pictures!0

I love that cork screw!! Too bad I don't drink wine. I collected some corks for awhile from my in-laws with plans to make a cork wreath I saw at a winery but then they went to screw top. :sad:
Kasi, Kim and Faith, drink up! Comp is only 4 days way. Kasi lushy posting, cute!
I hate hate hate Friday nights - and the start of a holiday/vacation week. DH got down his guitars to 'dust' last night and it wasn't long until he was playing and I was singing and dancing. Which led to excessive drinks and no dinner for him. At least I ate, he stayed in bed until 11:30 today. I should have made him get up - hey, no whining over self inflicted injuries - but I didn't want to deal with him. :laugh: Somehow I still stayed under calories though. Oh! I started doing Leslie Sansone walking steps to the music, I forgot to count all that in my exercise log. Man, her music sucks but I guess she would have to pay tons of royalties for good halfway current music. I should mix my own.....

Hi all; sounds like we are having a productive weekend. I actually was down one drink yesterday. Will wonders never cease!. I've been having 1.5 oz. of Jose Cuervo Especial gold tequila and diet 7up, 4x an evening. Yee haw :drinker: Just wasn't up to that, so only 3 last night. Well, I did a bit of babysitting of the hubs as he was smashed. Someone had to be somewhat alert! lol Maybe he'll hurt enough not to do so much today - HA! I hate long weekends too, Debbie. :ohwell:
Have fun!!
P.S. Nic pics solpwr0 -
Hi Lushes,

Last night after mountain biking I dropped into my favorite everyday Italian restaurant, Ciao Mambo. Sat at the counter, flirted with my favorite servers, started with a Barbera glass pour. Two guys down from Medicine Hat for the weekend were also at the counter. We were chatting about wine, and turns out one of them owns a wine shop. They gave me a taste of their Banfi Brunello '06, and it was spectacular. Nose was cinnamon, mint, and wet leather. Great mouthfeel. Flavors were cinnamon, mint, and tar. So yummy. Next they bought a bottle of The Prisoner '09, and they are sharing freely. I hadn't had that vintage yet; I was underwhelmed. Got some ripe plums, vanilla, swisher sweets for flavors. Next, Altus Napa valley cabernet. Very good wine; better than Prisoner. Nose was cinnamon, vanilla, and clover. Flavors were current and tobacco field.
So I'm counting a bottle for last night. I thinking I'm close, judging by the buzz I had. Not too much, but definitely there. It was over the course of 3 hours.0 -

Drank Thursday - last night......holy hangover this morning!
Ate a normal lunch, then went to my fav restaurant to get a chicken salad sandwich and pasta salad.....oops - 800+ calorie lunch means that either I only eat 200 calories for dinner - or workout, I think I'll get a run in, maybe it will make me feel better. ugh
A little while ago, I was complaing to my husband about feeling ****ty - he asked if I was ready for a drink.......oh my, I can be convinced SO easily.......0 -
So much beer. 6 taster at the first one, 3 at the second and a very generous 3 at the last one. then we went and had 8 oz of wine with oysters for dinner and then went back to the hotel and I drank a bottle of chardonnay with a wine meat and cheese plate. this morning was 3 mimosas and a glass of merlot and so much food I think I am going to burst. no more food today but I will probably cocktail it the rest of the day. Then I am done. I WILL be good.0

Robin, you must indulge tomorrow before the initial weigh-in. We will need that bloated alcohol weight to rock the first weigh-in. So, eat lots of sodium with the liquor as well.
Monday, 5 vodka sodas

Thursday, ??? drinks
Friday, Saturday, Sunday, 0 drinks...working 3 to 11

WTG Lushes!!! I saw lots of good drinking going on! :drinker:
I actually didn't drink that much, but holy hell I did eat a ton (and didn't exercise much)
I had chinese food and feel like crap. YUK..I just can't eat that stuff anymore. I'm about to burst with the sodium. :grumble:
