So anyway, I know that I should be proofing, etc. but instead am thinking of making a huge romaine lettuce salad with some over-priced grape tomatoes I bought by mistake. MMmm, I wonder if romaine lettuce originated in Romania? Will have to check it out. I only buy "Andy Boy" brand these days because they are hugie supporters of the Breast Canter Research Foundation. As usual I am digressing :-) So I have decided that it is not too early for wine. I have Sutter Home, white zinfadel, my prefered inexpensive wine. I have been drinking the same wine since ?????, I am not telling, but it has been a very long time. I recall a few years back, that a friend said that he had discovered a really good wine; it was Sutter Home. I mentioned that earlier I thought that Sutter Home was the house brand name of Home Liquours. I think he thought that I was putting him down, when in fact I was simply making a statement of truth. It was not until I went online at the the Sutter Home site and found that these people had been around since 1800's http://www.sutterhome.com/.
I found this wine because a friend had spent some time with family in California and returned home talking about Perrier and Sutter Home Zinfadel, both were very in at that long ago time. However, I think the best wine I have ever tasted was one that my ex-husband and I discovered, while scrounging around in Greenwich Village (I don't have to tell you how long ago that was either) It was a rose colored South African wine and wonderful. It's so odd, sometimes I think I have the name, then it disappears from my mind. One day I will remember the name and buy it, if the vinyard is still producing.
Speaking of wines--Whine, I don't feel like doing any required reading. Maybe I will order some Chinese food instead of having salad and read a bit instead. Oh, deep sigh!!!
