Natter 72: We Were Unprepared for This
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Truth. Also all the museums I skipped.
Nothing like getting up, showered, dressed, and a little makeup only to have your friend say "you look tired". Le sigh.
Wine is cheaper than soda. Oh, land of my heart!
For those of us who worry about our hearts: my brother the doctor says that reseveretrol, which is the chemical in red wine that is good for your heart, is presented most strongly in malbecs and zinfandels. So if you must indulge, get one of those!
Of course, of the wines I bought yesterday (having a high-quality wine-and-cheese shop next to my hair salon is not healthy), one was a nice white and neither of the others were malbecs or zins. Woops.

...or just drink extra rioja to make up the difference, right?
ooh I like both of those kinds of reds a lot usually!
I can never remember that malbec is a red. I doubt it makes much difference to my heart health what varietal my one or two glasses of wine a week are. Just don't explode the myth that 3 cups of coffee a day are good for you, I need that one.
Thank god zinfandel is one of my favorites!
I like zinfandel a lot, too. But also rioja lately -- my dad discovered it when he was in Spain and rarely buys anything else.
Where is the evidence that cheese is important for your health? That's what I need.
Are we giving equal time to mental health? Because then cheese is TOTALLY important.
