A list we can explore? 100 most popular non alcoholic beverages in the world. I've only tried about 14 of these listed ... mostly types of coffee or tea. Fun to read all the descriptions and origins. I need to search for Julmust (Christmas juice) and see if anyone around here carries it (Ikea). Description of Julmust: Swedish soft drink ... dark, sweet soda that has many similarities to both Coca-Cola and Root Beer. It is made up of sugar and water and there is hop extract and malt ... but the spices are a secret. Two of the biggest Julmust brands in Sweden are Nygårda and Apotekarnes.

I hope that you are having the most fabulous birthday : - )2 -
I am Dawn and live in South East British Columbia. I am 60.
My goal remains the same as it has been for quite some time, 16-20 AF days per month.
Friday October 23 - AF - Always happy to see that 16AF number.
Saturday October 24 - Drinks. Awesome busy day today.
Sunday October 25 - AF - Planning on racking up a few more AF days before the month is over.
Monday October 26 - AF - Easy decision, early workday on Tuesdays.
Tuesday October 27 - AF - Cracker of a workday, but tomorrow is my 2 year anniversary on MFP, so I want to weigh as little as possible and thus remained AF : - )
Rolling total: 19 AF days out of 27 days so far.4 -
My face was cut off when trying to change my profile photo. I saw this pretty leaf on the ground on the trail and took a picture, using it instead : - )4

Dawn I remember you joined us in October , but was not sure the date. HAPPY TWO YEARS of accountability and drinking LESS! Let's not forget your weight loss too.
Sorry your photo could not be shrunk down. It is such a great picture of you. AND you have already hit next to your high goal mark.
Your rock'n.3 -
Tonight we have a seminar to attend at a reastraunt. When you get to my age people begin contacting you to try and have you invest wisely or join retirement communities. Nice thing is, they offer you a lovely fine dinner in exchange for listening to them chatter for a few hours. Hey why not? I enjoy good food.
Husband looks at it as free drinks! NOPE I told him. Dinner is no charge, your drinks you will have to pay for.
Already know this will be another alcohol free evening for me.

When it comes to calorie counting I rather eat than drink so bring on sobriety!7

15 days AF. Not celebrating my B-day until the weekend. So I made a deal with my "wine devil" that I will continue to run the AF streak until then.
