<<      As a recovering alcoholic (14 years sober), I don't mind dishes made
 with wine, even though that was my drug of choice.  The alcohol cooks out, in
 most instances, and leaves the wonderful taste behind.  I have been known, on
 occasion, to indulge in desserts soaked rum or brandy, etc., but for me
that's
 a little more risky.  What my sponsor told me was that as long as I didn't
 'think' that eating things with alcohol in them made me believe I could
handle
 drinking again, I was probably okay. >>


I only have a few twenty-four-hours compared to you, milady, but I agree.  The
Program has taught me that I don't need the drugs to have uninhibited fun, and
I have learned to enjoy life to the fullest.  I believe that I am one drink
from a relapse, and I don't want to go there, but food flavored with wine does
not tempt me to go there.
