Yes well, I put a bottle in the freezer so it will be ready to open here shortly. It's not a big bottle, so I plan to have it all to myself this afternoon.

Ok I have a new favorite (affordable) wine. I couldn't resist the name of the winery and the label on the bottle. Here's the picture on the label, does this fit me or what?!?!! It totally could be a Tarot or Oracle card. It's Prophecy Pino Grigio.

We just went out to a local taproom* with D to grab a beer (wanted to get out of the house). She had a couple Christmas cookies that we brought and some water. There were tons of parents with kids there. I wanted to take a picture and text it to MC, saying "SEEEE? We're not the only ones!"
*Place that brews beer on the premises and can serve their own beer but nothing else, including food (though they have regular food trucks that come by). |

I think children in bars is a relatively new thing - as is the idea of taking small children everywhere - there used to be more of a clear line between what was appropriate for children and and what was not. Now that parents are letting children be in charge of the family and run the show - the lines are a lot blurrier.
There used to be laws against children in places that served just or mostly alcohol in a lot of places. My friends would not have taken children to bars for the most part (I am probably closer to your parents' age) but I think the blurriness started with my generation and has gotten worse and worse (you kids get off my lawn). My parents would have gone to bars specifically to get away from us. I, of course, leave bars if children arrive or try to only frequent those that have over 18 rules and are not for families with small children. Since I rarely go to a bar, it is not a huge deal to me except in theory.

I think the celestial pitcher is supposed to be pouring out her hair? hair, in dreams can represent self-concept, mental attitude, or character. or maybe it poured out her and the hair is the last bit? like she is 'from the stars'? i dunno.
But i really really like the overall feeling of the picture. In fact, I want it bigger, in a frame, hung on the wall over my desk! |

This says it's produced and bottled in Mezzocorona, Italy. I've been to Italy once, but have no idea where that is!

When i have gone wine shopping i have only seen Australian wines maybe they keep the imported stuff in a different area. I have only seen Moet and Chandon once but i dont drink sparkling wines so i dont know what else we have in that section

I once saw this shockingly bad movie with Alan Rickman in it about anAmerican vineyard that was going down hill and so they called on his character a British winemakerr totry and fix things.

I was browsing the entire wine section of the grocery store instead of going right to where I usually go lol, they had a special today all the 750 ml bottles were on sale, plus an extra 10% off if you bought 6 bottles, hence h said to buy 6 lol and I stumbled upon this one.

So, I bit the bullet (before I started imbibing, I know couch rules! lol) and sent t a well thought-out email describing what I'd realized about how the whole wishing we could be friends thing was getting in the way sometimes and how I've become weary of it, that it's part of why I need to leave and that I do realize I have avoided talking about it. She just replied, saying she appreciates my ability for self-reflection and honesty. So things feel a little bit better than they did last night. I'd say it might be the wine talking, but I haven't had very much. Yet.
oh and @@ - I am suspending conscribing my t to the virtual hecatombs. At least, for now. |

Two more days until all the incredibly annoying Christmas commercials go away! (I'm especially looking at you, Lexus! And Kay Jewelers.)

It sounds like you've landed in a good place for now, Art. That's awesome.
I've finally decided to download Tapatalk again, so I'll be slightly more active, if only over Winter Break. |

It's also a thing where we're not bringing D someplace and getting wasted...And we're going at kid-friendly times. We're not taking her there at 10 p.m. on a Sat. night. Like today, it was 3 p.m. The place we go on Sundays is around 4. Other places, no later than 5:30...maybe 6 if we hit traffic getting there. |

I think MC may just be out of touch. H and I frequent places like that all the time, and while we don't have children, we see families with children all the time. We considered going out tonight, but settled on ordering from Amazon Prime Now instead. My hard sodas will be here momentarily. |
