Things I've Done Today

* Re-painted my nails with Light My Sapphire, because after removing spray paint from my hands, there was no more polish.  And because it makes me smile.
* Ate yummy leftover shornakhod.  Even better today.  Oh yes it is.
* Thoroughly contemplated different outfits revolving around one pair of shoes.  Thanking God for the memory I have with visualizing, because I did this all from the comfort of my bed.
* Went to a free wine tasting with G.  Awww yeah!
* Bought a nice goat's cheese called Bucherondin from the wine store (which also carries cured meats, bread, olives, truffle oil, and liquor galore.....)
* I fell in love with a 1972 scotch that is supposed to have a taste of seville oranges.  I'd settle for the cheaper one that is supposed to have flavors of vanilla and butterscotch.  (both by Glenrothes)
* I sound like an alcoholic, but I want to learn to drink scotch/bourbon.  
* Because I am wanting to throw a retro cocktail party with martinis, scotch on the rocks and shirley temples.  

And now I'm just rambling.  So here is what I wore on our mini date to the wine store.  

Gah, it was brought to my attention that I didn't put anything about the outfit!

Dress:  Gap Outlet

Tights: Gap Outlet (I love them, they're thicker so nice for the cool weather)

Ring:  H&M

Boots:  Kenneth Cole Reaction

As I am typing this I am snacking on ciabatta with the goat's cheese, and lemme tell ya.... divine!  I am not usually a huge fan of the rind on cheeses (but I'm working on it, so I eat it anyways) but this rind is actually good!  And the wikipedia description is completely accurate... crumbly, gooey, yummy!

The wine we were tasting is from southern Italy, in Calabria.  We tried a dry white, and 3 reds, and every single one was decent-good.  We really liked the white, so we picked up a bottle of that, and we're headed back to the store for the last one we tried once it comes in.....they sold out.

So there you have it:  mini date successful!
