As soon as I could clear my eyes because I was laughing myself to tears I signed up for their stuff. Great, great stuff! Thank you so much.
Young men imbibe copious quantities of alcohol for 5-10 years. What could possibly go wrong?
Awesome.
We gave up sugar (Whole30 diet) for of course 30 days. On day 31 I made cookies and drank wine. Delicious.
