Does your wife get headaches mostly from red wine?

Al, she might have a sulfite allergy; my wife is the same.

I think it's been mostly red wine, and we've had some wine "aficionados" mention sulfite.  We're not big drinkers anyway, so the easiest solution was simply not to drink wine (which she's not crazy about anyway).   

I was asking because red wine triggers my migraines. It's actually very common. Sulfites, tannins, all kinds of shit in the way of a good wine.  

Might I suggest a good Riesling?

I appreciate the information and the suggestion but, as I wrote earlier, we're not big drinkers and neither of us are particularly fond of wine anyway, so not drinking it is the simplest solution.  My wife's usual poison of choice is a Screwdriver, and mine is a Caucasian, but even then we only imbibe on those occasions when we happen to be in the mood and one drink will usually satisfy that craving.  Now, if you're offering coffee (both of us) or Diet Coke (mostly me), that's a different story.   

Dude. Someone told me if I wouldn't drink so much I probably wouldn't have a hangover in the morning. I'm experimenting now and have discovered if I start again when I wake up in the morning I don't seem to notice any ill effects until much later in the day. Go figure..... Now long before I knew anything about the Dude I did a four year hitch as a Shallow Water Sailor out of San Pedro, CA. Now Coasties are cool. In fact, now that I think about it, most of these dudes were pretty good at laying back and not fretting over much of anything. You could say they had a handle on abiding and such. Once dude we called Doc. He was a corpsman. Every Monday morning Doc would pass out his "hangover kit" which consisted of aspirin, activated charcoal tablets, vitamin b-complex tablets and a big black cup of coffee. It served it's purpose. A few years later I discovered a well-done (charred) Double-Double from IN-N-OUT with a large side of greasy fries and a large Coke seemed to set the tone for the day. They were usually open by noon so that worked well too.

Your hangover remedies?

Mine...more beer.

Yes DB, I agree!

Awesome thumbs up, H dude! 

Some vegetable juice like V8 is good for vitamin replenishment. For those who aren't fans of tomato-based products, Gatorade is good wakeup juice.

Drinking a pint of water before crashing out, after waking up at some point and ice lollies/pops. Zesty coitus too, for those with willing partners. Sometimes, just sleeping it away works, but water will definitely help and not make you feel like a tramp slept in your mouth!

Before heading home, I have to go to a 24 hour diner, and eat pancakes.  Lots of pancakes. 

Lingonberry pancakes?

Ze pigs in blanket.

Now that sounds good.  We have this place up here called the Pancake Chef.  They have bacon pancakes.  Add butter, and pecan syrup.  Damn, I'm hungry now.

I think you're making us hungry too, Rusty. 

Or maybe it's just the munchies...
