Gluttony & Other Indulgences...


Gluttony: to gulp down or swallow; over indulgence and over consumption of food, drink or intoxicants to the point of waste. This evening is turning out to be quite nice. So far I am enjoying a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon by Tisdale, surprisingly tasty. I must correct my previous statement about drinking glutenous amounts of wine in these next three days. I may gulp and swallow but not to the excessive point of waste. The particular wine I am drinking tonight is a deep blood red color. It has a mild flavor, a light scent and it makes me feel warm and cozy inside. I am enjoying this glass in a very comfy chair while writing this entry and watching "Star Trek", (i'm a bit of a Trekkie)... The perfect evening. The husband is happy and the babe is beautifully snoozing in her chair. All is well in the land of Sara.

The Begining


I happen to love wine, though I am no connoisseur. I am ashamed to admit that up until this very Christmas I didn't even own a single wine glass... I am now the owner of two (yes, just two) beautiful wine glasses. The glass is crackled near the stem and they have a sloped lip for optimal scent absorption. I am now also the proud owner of a decent wine bottle opener (Thanks, to Candy) and a glass Owl shaped stopper (Thanks, to Michelle). So, into the unknown I tread lightly.
