Golden Raisins soaked in Gin - Gourmet_Mom - 06-21-2008
William has heard that this is a good thing to eat (9 a day) for arthritis pain. When he was buying the gin, he asked the clerk and she said there were quite a few people that are doing this now. Any of you hear of this?
Funny aside..."Goofball" doesn't HAVE arthritis...LOL! He's says its preventive! RIGHT!

I think my mom tried it - but I don't think it did anything for her. She didn't do it for long, anyway.
That is too funny - preventative - yeah right!
Why not just have your gin on the rocks and a bar snack of trailmix. They can soak in the tummy!

Maybe it's like what a 1970s comedian said about the medical use of marijuana for glaucoma patients: "My grandmother has been doing this. She still can't see, but now she doesn't care." LOL!

My mother in law in South Carolina was a tee toteler and a southern Baptist to boot. She swore by them, but the soaking time got shorter and shorter--the liquid also began to go away--she said it really worked.

LOL! Reminds me of why they always say to take along TWO Baptists when you go fishing: because if you only take one, he'll drink all your beer.
