I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

Own it, Jesse! Round birthdays deserve gestures like that.

Imagine dark chocolate with a zinfandel PORT.

::checks cupboard:: That's what I was drinking on X-mas! Delish.

Oh, you guys -- I went out shopping today, and bought Not Your Daughter's Jeans. I am totally middle-aged now.

Whatevs, I live in NYDJ corduroys. I should check to see if there are after Christmas sales because those fuckers are expensive.

h, but it comes in a bag that's great for microphones!

...I read this as having to do with the babies bringing nummy toe gifts. Oy.

There was recently a photo spread linked somewhere that had celebrities wearing NYDJ. And not, like, old celebrities. So feel better?

I buy wine based on when Lot18 (a) has Rioja by the half-case and (b) has given me a $15 credit. And then I buy a TON to get free shipping and then I don't have to buy wine again for at least 6 months.

I usually buy my wine weekly, two bottles every week.

I envy your focus.

My big problem is that I generally don't like white wine, so when I come across a white wine I DO like, I feel like I need to buy at least a few bottles, and I typically pick up a few reds in the process, I don't know how, it just happens. And that's really only a problem because the wineries are, you know, right there next valley over and frequently come to a few blocks from my house for festivals and whatnot to offer me free samples. Yes, me personally. "-t", they whisper, "come try some chocolate and by the way have a souvenir wine glass, oh, hey, can't leave that empty can we?" And next thing I know my wine rack is overflowing again.

And then I drink approximately one bottle per month, so, well, the wine is winning.

If I had good wineries nearby, not to mention storage space for the extra wine bottles, I think it would change my buying habits.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm surrounded by wineries and the bounty is sadly wasted on me. I'm not much of a wine drinker.

I've developed an intolerance and no longer can drink more than two glasses of red wine in one sitting. It is sad, and the reason I've been experimenting in the booze aisle.

Wow, I must be middle-aged if I can't handle red wine and wear NYDJ.
