My fiance use to drink a LOT. Almost every day, and in large quantities. Sometimes he would come close to polishing off a bottle of whiskey. There was a point that he messed up real bad, and I told him if he didnt quit drinking I would break up with him (2 years ago) He agreed, but later I found out he only quit for about a month. He said that he just couldnt stop, and that he felt horrible for doing it behind my back, but he couldnt help himself. Well, now that we have kids, he has a decent job and drinks once, MAYBE twice a week. He only gets "wasted" if he's around his friends. If its just him and I, its not that bad. However, when we are around his friends and he promises to only drink one, it always turns into more. Also, he says the thought of quitting drinking makes him sad. He says its not that he would miss getting drunk per say, but he couldnt imagine never tasting beer again. So is this alcoholism, or just someone who REALLY loves beer? What type of alcoholism would this be

Need some fresh new inspirations! I typically mix in fancy spice mixes and some minced scallions or garlic into lite sour cream. Allergic to all seafood and hate bean dip!

I want to know why Starbucks is not compelled to be competitive with other coffee shops? Why no punch card?
I know that it doesn't cost the co. that much for the product. Its mostly ice!!!! Thoughts?

Unfortunately, I can't go to a health food store. If you had one suggestion for something good I could pick up at a normal grocers, what would it be? I am not picky and willing to experiement because I trust the opinions of many of you.

I am a huge fan of Alton Brown. I watch his show Good Eats every night at 11pm. Does anyone else stay up to watch the show? My favorite episode was about potatoes, lol. Maybe it's an irish thing, I don't know. What was your favorite?

Can you give me something different using potatoes?
I was thinking scalloped, but I dont have any cheese.
We always have mashed or roasted.
Something good besides potato salad.
Now that Ive gotten all the kinds you cant give me, I'm leaving it up to you? Thanks.

Ok, So I decided that I'm going to broil my incredibly expensive cut of meat. Anyways. I just wanted to make sure I kinda know what I'm doing before I start.

Heat up my Oven Broiler to High (not sure about that one)
Rub the meat with Olive oil and season with salt & pepper.
Place the meat CLOSE to the top of the stove for 3 minutes then flip the meat for another 3 minutes.
Serve?

I don't personally eat meat due to Ethical beliefs. So i have no idea how to cook meat. Is this method going to produce a very tasty meal?

Please help me! I want to surprise my husband!

I am only 18 (yes I know its technically underage) but when I drink alcohol, I don't drink a lot. Maybe a beer or two at most..nothing hard. For some reason at first it tastes good and all but by the end of my first or second beer, my mouth is all alcohol tasting and when I drink the beer, i do not taste the amount of flavor i tasted at first and it seems like all i taste is alcohol. Is that normal? Why does that happen, is it supposed to happen? Does it happen to you? I mean I think I read on wikipedia that if you're hungover, then the thought of the taste of alcohol is repulsive. But i've never been hung over I dont drink that much so is this supposed to happen if you dont drink enough to be drunk/hungover? And i don't get repulsed, I just wouldnt like to drink anymore cause it tastes a little different and way more alcoholish. Thanks guys
