Whee!
Big Daddy cooked (yup that's right ladies and gentlemen eat your hearts out, my hubby cooks!) a fantastic BBQ and we drank a bottle of white wine. I haven't done that in ages. We used to drink a bottle of wine a night. Red, white, you name it we drank it. I think we tried to relive our Vineyard theme wedding often...Then, I became a mom and drinking wine at dinner when your itty bitty baby might need you in the wee hours of the night became somewhat stupid. Especially since I can't get up at 2am when I'm sober let alone tipped. But now, Fa sleeps all night long and I think I am ready to uncork the yum yums again! Wow. I really missed it. I missed the flavors and the aromas and the sleepy feeling you get when you are done eating. Like you wanna crawl up on the couch and lick your paws until bed time...it just made the dinner so much more delicious and we laughed and watched Fa run around the table with R. It was kinda like a real family.
Tonight, we will uncork a white again. I am looking forward to it. Sometimes you just hafta go back a little to move forward, ya know. Family dinners have been non-existent here for a while (with trying to keep the old house clean for showings and trying to keep the new house clean until we unpack everything) and I think they are coming back again...Yippee...
Maybe I'll finish unpacking one day this year. Until then, pass me the wine.
