Vanilla extract is 35% alcohol; I am not giving up everything that's in. I can't remember whether I have had anything that was cooked with cooking wine during sobriety or not. There is one flounder dish that I might have had; not sure when we last had that. But it doesn't bother me that there are 2 partial bottles, one red and one white, in a cabinet over the stove. History says if I start to drink again, it won't be because of a trigger. I guess the fact that it is there and doesn't tempt me could be a factor in the thought process that says I can handle this again because I am not triggered by things like that. Kind of a stretch though.
