[Saxton]

I would be with you if I didn't have to pick up Dad at dialysis in a few minutes ... don't want to be too drunk when I'm pushing his wheelchair.:lmao: PUI ... pushing under the influence.

[Tony-NJ]

groan :lmao:

[DVC~OKW~96]

I'll take four please. It has been a wretched week. :( About six olives per, if you don't mind. ::yes::

[RemixBoyNJ]

I will take one as well, but make mine a Bombay Sapphire, extra extra dry :)
thank god this week is over :)

[Tony-NJ]

ok now look - an hour ago I would have volunteer'd to bartend - now, not so much! It wouldn't be safe. :lmao:

[RemixBoyNJ]

[Tony-NJ]

Give me a bottle of Grey, no glass needed, no ice needed, and I'll take the whole bottle to go while I sit and wallow at how much money I've lost in the past week on top of the mid five figures last year.

I'm sick of investors that cannot bother to look how their own actions are full filling their own prophecy of declining profits.

The sad part is I've lost less money in our DVC "investment" then I have in my actual investments.

[RemixBoyNJ]

thanks :) I needed that :)

[jenn&nelsonrego]

Have anything that goes well with antibiotics? :sick:

[RemixBoyNJ]

some OJ? maybe some cranberry juice?

[jenn&nelsonrego]

Thanks. But I have had enough of that crap! ;)

[RemixBoyNJ]

ok i got it then a shot of Nyquil (the amount of alcohol in that is pretty high)

It is sweet of you to keep trying, but that stuff gives me nightmares! :scared1:

Last week Jack Bauer was chasing me through the mall, then all of a sudden I was in NYC with Molly and Connor from Ugly Betty.....

Then I woke up and called my husband by my step mothers name...

Although, it could have been the 103 fever.

All very strange....

[TuckandStuiesMom]

I'm thinkin I'd like one of those thin mint things (w/o the vodka). As soon as I get this year's girl scout cookies, I think I'm going to give that a try.

[Tony-NJ]

Tonight it's about the Wine.

That is so sweet Tony but I'm feelin' fine. :goodvibes I'm just not a much of a drinker...I do however make an exception for eiswein. YUM! Think I might just go get a little glass right now since I'm home all by my lonesome.

[Tony-NJ]

Never heard of it - it it like a reisling? Here ya go!

[TuckandStuiesMom]

The one I have open right now IS a Riesling from Idaho -- Ste. Chappelle 2005. :goodvibes :goodvibes but I think there are other varieties as well (including reds) including some real tasty ones from New York State and eastern Canada. they are all dessert wines -- sweet but generally pretty complex in spite of that.

[Tony-NJ]

well enjoy! Chris loves Reisling!

Have you tried Fro-Zin? It's an icewine process with zinfandel grapes. It's made by Meeker vinyards in Geyserville, CA. It's a fantastic dessert wine, and it's unbelievable with chocolate.

It's AWESOME! I discoverd it at a "Party for the Senses" at the Food and Wine Festival a few years back. It's now a staple in our wine cabinet.

We've also used it at parties to make "Fro-zinis". Vodka, Fro-Zin in a martini glass rimmed in dark chocolate. TO. DIE. FOR. :thumbsup2

[wallyb]

My fave dessert wine is Rosa Regale

[DVC~OKW~96]

Hey, we have a bottle of that on our shelf. ::yes::

Dessert, eh? Might just give it a try for that. We tend to go with a late harvest reisling, port, or a sauternes for dessert. Wasn't too sure what to do with a sparkling rose.

It's always described as ~"a wine that can pair with chocolate"
I think it works with flavored body jell too ;)

[rpmdfw]

In addition to being desserty, Rosa Regale can be used in place of a Kir Royale as a pre-dinner drink. Especially on a warm evening, on the patio. It's a very similar taste profile to a Kir, without having to stock the creme de casis.

[DVC~OKW~96]

A Kir Royale, really? Hmmmm... do you sense the hesitation... Little Miss Fussy Pot here doesn't quite see how, but will certainly give it a try.

After all, we have the bottle so we will definitely be trying it some time.

On the lanai around the pool... might just work...

Does it compare with champagne and chambord? I like that if the champagne is brut... ::yes::

It's probably closer to Asti and chambord, honestly. It's on the "light and fruity" side. I love buying a glass at the wine store at Epcot's Italian Pavillian and sitting on their piazza and sipping it as people walk buy. (of course I also like to get a glass of red, or a shot of limoncello and do the same thing. :rotfl: )

[wallyb]

... and it's molto bello in your glass.
Like a sparkly ruby! :goodvibes

[DVC~OKW~96]

OK. Sounds do-able. :D

Yep, we love to people watch at EPCOT too. ::yes::

[Tony-NJ]

It's that time again!

Can I please have a big ole Desert Pear Margarita?

It's supposed to be "date night", but Corey just landed coming in from TX, so I doubt that she will be up for a trip to Longhorn being that she has been traveling for over 8 hours today and still has a good 2 hours left before she makes it home.

[Tony-NJ]

Here ya go babe - At least you almost wanted to do something! Cheapo Chris didn't want to go anywhere!

http://i.ehow.com/images/GlobalPhoto/Articles/2005325/017PricklyPearMargaritacopy_Full.jpg

[Timon-n-Pumbaa Fan]

Yum! That's got just enough kick to keep me happy until Corey gets home. :thumbsup2

Corey and I usually have a Friday night date night. This week due to her travel schedule, it just didn't work out. We didn't get our date night last week because we had short notice on her Dad and step-mom coming to visit, so it was a clean and cook night. I will say that if I don't get a date night next Friday, then I might just go off the charts into Grumpyland.

Lindy in Grumpyland.....hmmm.....sounds like a children's movie, but it's so going to need to be rated R with my pottymouth. :lmao:

[Tony-NJ]

At least you get date night LOL I get dinner on Saturday's with Chris and his Mother!!!:confused3

[Timon-n-Pumbaa Fan]

Wow! You must really love that man. ;)

[Tony-NJ]

I do;)
