Friday Wine Day

As much as I love my job, I just love Friday's a little more. And as much as I love Friday, I just really love wine. Not the good stuff either. The cheap and dirty wine. If it comes out of the box, it's even better. (There really is good value in a box of wine which is important for all the low-budget wine drinkers out there).

Jamie picks up my wine from time to time and he always asks what kind I want. I reply...anything red. Now I do prefer Shiraz and some blends, but I will pretty much drink anything. I like to try new things. I was an ABC (anything but Cab) kinda girl but I think I have out grown that phase in my life. Cab is ok, and I will drink it, but I will drink all others before I delve into it.

I used to drink white too, but now I think its too prissy. And don't say it's not, cause it is. White wine goes well with yachts and country estates with show horses, of which I own not any. Ok, maybe that's a bit harsh and I have been known to drink a bottle of white after all the red is gone, but it's not my first choice.

Pictured here is a glass of red. Well it's not really a glass per se, it's really a metal of wine. This is because we like to drink out in the shop and I have wasted one too many glasses out there. Time to bring on the unbreakable kind of drinking tools!

I have also been collecting the corks from my bottles of wine. Do you know how hard it is to find wine that still uses real cork anymore? It's hard. Once I find one that still does, I will buy the crap out of it until I get board of it and need to try something new. Then the hunt is on again to find a corked wine. I don't know what I have saving them up for, some kind of crafty craft. I did make a cork board for my sister for Christmas last year out of all the corks I saved up, but now I need something new to do with them. I will keep my eyes out on Pintrest for some cool ideas.

And all of this to say that I'm not really an alcoholic or anything either. I just really enjoy my metal of wine on Friday's. Is that really so bad?
