Now I know why I had the foggy headed feeling while I was up north...... Here I thought it was that no one would let me stay sober for more then 6 hrs.... but no. It was the wine flu( maybe the beer and martini flu as well).
I had a wonderful time seeing old and new friends, family. Ate some great food and was pleasantly surprised that there are many BYOB of wine restaurants in Jersey! And because of the big juice of a life long friend got out of a ticket What a country!
TH about that wine flu.....I'm thinking some hair of the dog,so to speak.

Thom, I'd say drinking a modest amount of red wine would lift anybody's spirits when they're sick with a respiratory illness.

BYOB is the thing in NJ because they dole out very few liquor licenses there, so mostly you're forced to buy your vino at an off-premise location, which is good for retailers and very very bad for the restaurateurs.
