Just went a little crazy at the liquor store as the prices were pretty cheap compared to standard NYC prices. Near about tore my arm off carry it all back. :blush:

I drove through NH on Wednesday and started going overboard with all the great deals

The last time I did the NH run I was with my mother who was a helpful, moderating influence. -_-

But today I ended up with:

1 bottle of whiskey
2 bottles of cava
1 bottle of Aperol
1 bottle of vodka
1 bottle of sherry
1 bottle of pinot grigo

:blush:

Also, I felt bad when the clerk told me that it was the champagne making the bag heavy and then quickly corrected himself to say sparkling wine. Damn CCs and Joan Robinsons! :angry:
"I've never been quite sure what the point of a eunuch is, if truth be told. It seems to me they're only men with the useful bits cut off."
I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Aperol spritz is delightful.  :mmm:  More authentic not to use real champagne anyways.  :P

I've had a couple good glasses of inexpensive sherry lately.  What kind did you get?

Couple tall glasses of refreshing Ovaltine. :mmm:

Worry not, health nuts, it's 1% milk. :)

You might as just well run around saying you hate life. /enjoy cloudy water.

Finishing off a growler of Madtree Identity Crisis, a fairly happy black ale. It's not that they used a ton of hops-- they just stand out. I think they used rye as well. Not bad but takes some getting used to.

I've a teetotal friend staying this weekend - she's showing solidarity with her boyfriend who's in AA. So she's emptying out her stock cupboard and bringing me some red wine and Zubrowka vodka.  :cool:

I had a nice pinot grigio with dinner last night. At the moment I'm drinking a cup of coffee.
