Good for you beth & Matt! Our favorite winery is Vincent Arroyo in Calistoga: [link]
They make fantastic reds, and name wines after their dogs. They're tiny, but when Jeff and I went there the first time and sat down to eat our PB&J lunch, the owner brought two full glasses of wine for us out of the library.
I now pay outrageous shipping costs to make sure I get my bottles of Bodega & JJ's blend.
Oh, wine . . . I miss you so.
I haven't been here much, so I haven't had the chance to say this, but CONGRATULATIONS SPARKY!!!!!
Oh damn, I forgot to sign up for Slacker Santa. If Nilly hasn't finished the list yet...?
Must go now and rescue a friend who has lost her keys.
Yeah, go email her right away cuz there may be time. And it is slackers after all.
Uhoh. Puppies were being put into a CAGE when the link when down!
Jessica, hope your coworker can still use the recs! There are a million good places to eat near enough to the Inner Harbor & Hopkins (I'm guessing medical campus?) especially if they have a car. Some of my faves:
The Helmand (Afghani = loads of vegetarian options!)
The Brewers Art (Belgianesque, exceptional beer
Arcos (very good Mexican in Fells Point
Mehek (very good Indian in Fells Point
I haven't been here yet but the group's other restaurants are very good.
Cighiale (the enoteca is supposed to be very good and less expensive)
If you need any other options let me know! (now let's see if I got my formatting right.)
I just realized that the odd piece of metal lying on the ground by my front steps is a piece of flashing from around my chimney. It must have come off in the wind last night. I guess I call a roofer about this? Wait, my roof is under warranty. I wonder if that is just for the shingles...
Recruiter called me this morning and I didn't answer. I called to apologise before I checked the call log--he called at 7am. Isn't it the caller's responsibility to not call me on eastern time? I mean, I don't know where he's calling from, and he knows where he's calling.
I wonder if it'll count against me? Although I'm pretty sure it's the wrong position.
I have some shopping to do, but I'm scared.
As you should be. Target was a blessed madhouse today.
