What have you learned today?

Now is that the type of wine or the brand name?

 

it`s the type of wine. different vineyards will produce it, but it will basically be the same. the more expensive it is generally the better the wine will be (with regards to this wine anyway, this is not true for everything). over her amarone starts at about £15 a bottle, and it`s worth every penny.

 

Ok I'm going to take your word for it Dave, I have out of town company next month and I wanted to have something nice to drink on hand for when they get to my place.

 

it`s the only sweet italian red i have come across, and i have a bottle in my wine rack so i know it`s good. probably a bit too heavy to drink on it`s own but it is bloody good stuff. definately one to impress with

 

Too heavy to drink alone? What do you mean by that? Is it best served during a meal?

 

maybe. i would tackle it on it`s own, but different people have different palettes. you could have it with your meal, or afterwards with pudding. it depends really on what your main course will be.

 

I will bear that in mind when I serve it then. I'll let you know how it goes.

Page doesn't work but I googled it... does it have fruity smarties in it and a black and white round thing on the end? I haven't seen any but I'll go take a look in Woolworths next time I'm in town, if anywhere round here has that kind of thing it will be Woolies and I'll let you know Wendy

 

Yup that sounds right Nik, it's filled with candy and has a black & white swirl marked ball on the end.


Thank you so very much!!

 

I have learned that disposable razors are poop!
They cut my delicate face to shreds!

Think I will stick with the expensive ones from now on!

Face, legs, the haven...A cut is still a cut, no matter how you slice it.

Ha! No matter how you slice it...cut...Ah, sometimes I just kill myself.

Today was my first day of class, and I learn't that if you have a speech impediment, or an Eastern European accent, and you have a large class of students, if you're going to say something, stand near the microphone so us cool kids at the back can hear what you're saying!!!

 

today has been an education.

i have learned that i have high blood pressure (but my dizziness and fainting is due to low blood pressure, go figure)

smoking while chopping onions REALLY makes you cry

that 7 year old bottle of amarone i had tastes like manna from heaven and i should have left it for another few years

drinking on an empty stomach is great, from a certain point of view

 

You have high blood pressure, but you get dizzy because of low blood pressure...Yeah, that makes sense!

 

tell that to the doctor.
