I use to think beer was 'yucky'

Hmmm, maybe my parents lied to ME

To jackiebp:

By "Let's not get into the particulars of why you are drinking around your child" I mean it can be rather against the point of drinking if you are trying to relax with a beer while your children run around screaming.

"Let's not get into the particulars of why you are drinking around your child..."

Wow, that's pretty judgmental - I think it's fine to model appropriate drinking around one's kids...

I thought this piece was just meh.

Beer is yucky, that isn't a lie. They didn't invent the phrase "bitter beer face" because it tasted like peaches and crea.

Not bad. Not a big fan of the "house" one, though - I doubt my 4 year old will be buying a house in THIS market...
