I’m looking forward to this, even though I can’t guarantee I’ll be here every time because of my schedule. I’ll be watching closely!!

Okay! We’ll try to go in order of how people signed up (just for ease, since I’ve already typed up the list).

Aw, man! I gotta go after **silenus**?! Jeesh, people, talk about hiring a monkey to clean up after the ring master!

How much is Boone’s Farm again? 😃

No, I’ll be good. I’ll do research and everything, so you may mock me in earnest. At least I’ll have a few months to get smartish.

Don’t worry about it, they will still be laughing so hard from my debacle, they won’t be able to put on their A game.

C’mon, people. It’s not like we’re talking _ **beer** _ here.

Besides, I’m right after **psycat90** and **Stranger**. Those are going to be hard acts to follow. And **Ass For A Hat** is threatening to make me drink a French wine! :eek:

We’ll start this off with a wine that I discovered about a year ago. The hubby and I had gone to dinner at a bar not too far from our house, and on the list of drinks was something that I had to try just based on the name of the winery and the wine. It turns out we liked it so much, it’s become a staple in our house, along with its sister wines. At about $15 a bottle, it’s easy to keep around.

Folie a Deux’s Menage a Trois - Red

It’s a blend of Cabernet, Merlot, and Zinfandel that goes very well with grilled meat or chicken, and we’ve had it with pasta and marinara sauce as well. The 2004, and 2005 vintages are available, and can be ordered from Folie a Deux’s website.

If you can’t get this one, any blend of three red varietals will do.

I’d love to be in - especially if anyone does anything “un-dry.”

If you have room for another, please add me to the list. I saw this string earlier but just had too much going on at the time to be able to commit to any level of participation.
