But when you go out, leave the car at home. And if you're going out with a group of friends, agree on a designated driver: someone who won't drink and will drive everyone home. If you're having a party at your house, there many strategies to make sure your guests don't drink and drive. Be sure to provide non- alcoholic drinks, as well as beer and wine. Serve snacks and hors d'oeuvres high in fat and protein, such as dips and cheeseses, to help absorb the alcohol. Avoid Serving salty foods, such as crackers and chips, which will make your gusts thirsty. During the party, don't let guests serve themselves. Ask someone responsible to tend the bar. Ask someon responsible to tend bar. Instead of 'one more for the road', switch gears and offer a round of coffee, tea or juice instead. And if one of your guests is intoxicated and fumbling for the car keys, do whatever you have to do. It is your responsiblity, as host of the party, to keep them away from the wheel. • YEAR HANG UP YOUR KEYS It's better to give up your car keys... ...than your life! HAVE A SAFE HOLIDAY! When it comes to alcohol, it's easy .to be fooled by appearances. But the fact is, that an "innocent" 12 oz. mug of beer or a "harmless" 5 oz. glass of wine, is as guilty of causing intoxicaiton as a standard 11/4 oz. shot of hard liquor. And, no matter what you're drinking, one drink per hour sets the pace for responsible moderation. Eating foods that are rich in protein beforehand, is another way to temper the effects of alcohol. But perhaps the most sobering fact of all, is that you really don't have to drink to have a great time. This holiday season, be merry but wise. Use good judgement. If you drink, please don't drive.
