Peanut Shortbread With Guinness Ice Cream, Deep Fried Nut

The [unbiblical] language of alcoholism captures this [“disease”] experience. 1. “Treatment is best done in the hospital by professional medical personnel.” 2. “Once an alcoholic, always an alcoholic. There is no true cure.” 3. “One drink, one drunk.” 4. “That’s the disease talking.” 5. “Medical treatments might soon be available.” 6. “You didn’t choose this, so how could it be anything but a disease?”
