Something to "wine" about
Thank God it's Friday! This has been the week from hell. The boys have had 3 dental appointments all on separate days right in the middle of my deadline week at work. (I'm not very good with planning) I'm so exhausted. I can't wait to come home from work today, kick off my shoes and sit down on the couch with a huge glass of wine and just say "ahhh"
Speaking of wine. How many of you are wine connoisseurs? I really like wine. I use to be a strictly white Zinfandel drinker, but I finally expanded into chardonnays, pinot grigio and now Merlot. I've tried lots of brands (mainly grocery store brands) but I found a couple I really like. My favorite Merlot is Robert Mondavi private selection, California. I like Cavit's pinot grigio and I found a very inexpensive Chardonnay called Bohemian Highway. ($7.99) It's light, not very dry and goes with anything or just good for sitting and sipping. If I could afford the higher brands, I would try them. I use to go to wine tastings when we had them here locally, but now I have to go down town if I want to do that and I've become quite the homebody. Maybe with the nice cooler weather I'll head down there and enjoy myself.
Cheers!

Well, my friend, sorry you had such a crazy week. You deserve that glass of wine! Enjoy, relax and unwind. Or should I say unwine...lol. Have a lovely weekend!
Justin actually had a surprise Birthday dinner for me this past June at a wine vineyard in Calera. It was great. We should have a girls lunch and go. It was great!
