Does anyone else have a "wine noise" window?

I do. Every evening from about 6pm to 8pm I think OO SOME WINE WOULD BE NICE. If I don't have any by 8 (which I usually don't, don't worry readers) the urge goes away.

I don't really get it with other treats. Like I love chocolate but it's not the same.

Maybe it's the socialised guilt around alcohol?

I also thought this was some new form of glazing 🙈
I feel like such a child the smell and taste of wine is so yuck to me so definitely no noise here. I occasionally get take away noise though 😂

Yep! I don't really get 'food noise' but I definitely get this. And when I occasionally give in I always deeply regret it as nowadays even the tiniest sniff of wine means I don't sleep until 1am 💔

Sleep and not overheating in bed are my main protective factors but I do still like it now and then

Yep, me too.

YES! I totally have this. Generally once I’ve eaten dinner it goes away and I start craving a cup of tea instead.

I get this! Usually goes away once I’ve eaten or if I get past 7/7.30. I loves me a wine whilst I’m cooking.

Yes me too!! Cooking is the best time.

I thought this was a thread about some new type of double glazing OP

Haha if I could get a layer that shut out the wine noise I would probably cough up
