Maybe it's just because I cleaned my glasses but I can make out what avatars are so much better now. You can actually see the words Anita Blake in mine. I thought that you couldn't really see it before.
On my 3rd glass of wine. First bottle was nasty, so naturally I pounded a glass then opened a bottle of something I like. Next on deck is a bottle of ice wine to go with the cookie dough dip and strawberries I'm making for dessert.
I have no idea what ice wine is? Regular wine with ice?
Ew.
Nope. Ice wine is a very sweet dessert wine, for sipping in small quantities. Tastes like wine fłavored honey. Sometimes figs. Or the Cabernet ones taste like strawberry jam. It is made from the grapes when they have a frost on them, very big in this region (Niagara).
First beer, Red Hook Audible. Long ass day, started with a hangover and then threw DS's birthday party. He had a blast, I wasn't thrilled with my frosting but had many compliments. I'm f'ing tired. Also old ass cat returned today and promptly destroyed his litter box. The smell will not subside. Welcome back jerkface.
Okay, I'm buzzed enough to join...this thread was started at 11:15 my time, which is a bit early for my drinking habits (no judging)...it's now 4:47 and I feel okay with my buzzed-ness.
I've had a glass of Chard that's super fancy and "estate grown" and "reserve" but tasted no better than Two Buck Chuck. I've also had two peach vodka/7-Ups. My girlfriend and I are meeting up for a beer later. Sadly, I feel more buzzed than I ever did during the three days I just spent in Vegas.
@guiltypleasures I think I may try this one! I am going to attempt to bake a bunch of stuff to freeze in the next couple weeks. Do the breads you make usually freeze okay?
We go through bread pretty quickly so I've never tried to freeze any. I don't see why they wouldn't though. If you try it let me know how you like it. I'm getting ready to make it as soon as I'm done with a few other things.
Have the pork BBQ & a cake done for tomorrow. Still have chicken BBQ to make tonight. I want to make all the things I can tonight because tomorrow my uncle is bringing some super yummy sangria & it will be my friend
@theseaword is that pic right now? Woah. I never made this very obvious connection but I guess it does stay lighter later up north? The sun hasn't finished setting here yet. Unless we are in different time zones.
Maybe I should shut up and drink my drink.
You're right. I'm in WA and my parents are in CA. The sun sets there way before it does here.
Hola! I survived Target and an outlet mall with a preteen and a toddler who missed her nap. Now I'm drinking a n organic cider while my brownie bake. Once done, I will top my brownies with a healthy scoop of B&J's, after which I will collapse into a food coma.
Re: This is the drinking thread. Come drink with me.
Okay I'm starting now too. It's nice to have someone to obsess over tv with.
This is wise.
Thank you! It looks delicious.

You buncha drunks. I'm not reading it.
Outside by the fire pit! DH is fetching a bucket of beer. Woooo!
