Strong enough for Noah to get drunk and Ham to do whatever he did.

Our family celebrated both Christmas and Easter as Christian holidays. It was our choice. It was a small country church. When I moved to the big city, I was told all that was sinful. I felt raped. Some of the most treasured memories of my childhood were ripped from me. They went as far as saying my ...

I like your ID there FinallyFree. Yes, of course, it was wine. It was just something that popped into my head. I remember an elder scolding me for cooking with wine or beer. I said the alcohol evaporates leaving the flavor. BUT! How would I get said beer or wine? If I bought it -- even for cooking p...
