i concur. one or 2 glasses of wine can have health benefits, you just have to be careful not to drink more than that. just need to stay away from the high calorie cocktails and other mixed drinks, liquors and beer. i don't think those can ever qualify as medicating yourself. shake head
I am planning to start, any suggestions on some brand.. I tasted once, didn't like it though... is there any wine that taste sweet..

hi kay! did you get the toy clearance list i emailed you yesterday? just checking.

you may want to start w/ fruit-flavored wines, white zinfandel (that's pink) or beaujolais nouveau. i'm sure there are many people way more knowledgeable than me who could suggest some brands. i also suggest going to wine tastings. these days lots of liquor stores have wine tastings on the wknds. you don't have to go to the vineyard anymore. in my area, many of the stores will post outside or in the window when they will hold the next one.

kay, thank you SO MUCH for the sparkling water qs! we guzzle through several PS sparkling water bottles everyday! bounce

wine... i personally think finding a vineyard that makes fruit wines and going for a tour will be great. we did that last summer. went to a highly rated winery that grows several kinds of fruits - peaches, plums, apricots, apples, grapes etc and then makes fruit wines. they showed us their whole process and we got to taste 8 different wines.
and then shop in their store, where you got a discount for buying. we brought home several amazing wines. some are dessert wines - rather sweet. some are drier wines. some are very full bodied. truly their wines are like a fruit cocktail in your mouth - full of amazing flavors, without being nauseatingly sweet. very nice.

those wines are also designed to be consumed soon after production unlike wines designed to be vintage wines. so they actually taste best when new, which means you get the freshest wines from the vineyard, rather than waiting for the whole distributor route with a store.


on the other hand, when you go to a store wine tasting, there's a wide variety of choices, so you are not limited to any one winery's production. and if it's a knowledgeable store and you tell them things you like to eat and drink, they can direct you to wines you may like and help you pick the right ones in a tasting.

good morning.

animal control called bright and early right after 8am to get our address. mind you, their hours are supposedly 8.30 - 4.30 so my taxpayer dollars are hard at work. dh thinks it's b/c they have nothing to do Teehee. picked up the cage b4 8.30, released the ground hog somewhere else (at least that's what i hope they did cuz they were back real quick) and returned that almost $50 cage b4 9am.

another alien encounter story from yesterday-
using exact same computer the alien could not find the phone number for town animal control. since i know all the calls get routed thru a main switchboard, i know you just need to figure out the main phone number and then the extension, but first i checked the phone directory page (wasn't there). he's called animal control b4 when they told him he needed to buy a cage and trap the animal himself, so not like he's never called them. then i got the extension number from googling my town + animal control to go straight to that webpage instead of hunting around for it. then i went to the homepage and got the township phone number. alien dials the number and nobody picks up and he says there is no answering machine. i then dial the exact same number and leave a message. and they call back 1st thing this morning and it's all taken care of b4 9am.

yeah, that's why everything takes twice as long to get done in my house. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) can't even find a frickin' phone number and leave a message.

oh, forgot, i was busy trying to correct some coupon misconceptions over in walmart deals yesterday if anybody wants some entertainment. xxx ended up cleaning up the posts after she said discussion was over b/c somebody wouldn't drop it. i realized after why those people are in the walmart thread and not the target thread. huge lacking in critical thinking which you need to do the deals at target, so they just go for overage at walmart. if they cannot figure out if they are paying tax or not, they really don't know if a complicated deal is really a deal or not.

She bought me the patterned dress at Target, 50% off. Big Grin Wearing it today, as a matter of fact!! So cute with a jean jacket (since its raining and yucky outside...).

A Moscato is very sweet and is considered a dessert wine. Next up, a Reisling is pretty sweet but quite drinkable. I really like Polka Dot Reisling.

The reds have great health benefits but a lot of them tend to be dry and hard to drink if you are a fan of sweet drinks. A wine I like is Apothic Red. It's a red wine but it has hints of chocolate and vanilla. Quite enjoyable. Smilie

good luck! a wine tasting is a great idea. Wink

Wake up. Wake up tn. Sorry the wake up call is late. hug

Been a crappy shopping day. Could not even use 1 measly TQ on a Orange Juice at Target Cafe. Cashier said it must be something in the Cafe like a cooked meal! Give me a break.

Tried to buy something at WM and was told by cashier, after I switched lanes cause of an extremely slow cashier, "I'm fixin' to close". Left cart with her. Was in a rush and did not have time to hunt down a cashier that was willing to cashier.
