Categorizing Things is Overrated

FYI

In paging through my most recently posted pictures, it occurred to me that perhaps I should explain: the wine I am drinking copious amounts of at my brother-in-law’s 30th birthday is non-alcoholic wine that comes in a wine bottle with a wine label and a wine vintage year and everything, so when you pour it into your wine glass you can almost pretend that you aren’t drinking overpriced white grape juice with a weird aftertaste.
 
I have had a half-glass or two of fo’ real wine – or possibly, maybe, five? ten? less than one a month! – over the whole course of my pregnancy.  I pour them conservatively, I sip them slow, I only have them with food, and boy golly do they taste like nectar from the gods.  I have foregone hard liquor, and I’ve only had sips of my husband’s beer, but wine is an indulgence I allowed myself on those particularly long days when it’s a choice between a small glass of sanity or a long walk off a short pier.
