Hmm...that is a good point - I remember when I was in college i dropped 10

lbs just by not having my daily can or two of coke (and I was still drinking

beer! LOL!). I do enjoy my wine -- but I generally only have it on Friday

and Saturday. I do agree about the glass v/ the bottle - it is just never

teh same once the bottle has been opened!

I know -- and the best thing is he actually likes cooking and he is very

creative (he can make things without recipes!) I enjoy cooking to an extent

- if I'm in the mood and have time - I find it relaxing, but I don't like it

as a daily chore. We generally prepare extra stuff over the weekends so we

don't have to do lots of cooking during the week and that helps greatly.
