And what a surprise because today I received my quarterly Wine Club shipment from my favorite winery, Humanitas Wines. For those of you who haven't been around me after I have a sip of wine and become a completely insufferable know-it-all, Humanitas Wines is a non-profit winery that donates a portion of each sale to a food bank based on your ZIP code.
So while I'm chugging away this delicious wine, hugging strangers, and telling them how much I love them and how freakin' beautiful they are, a portion of my money goes to a North Texas food bank.
So I feel good.
Anyway, bundled in with today's wine shipment was a nice little note from the Proprietor of Humanitas Wines, Judd Wallenbrock, telling me that he now has a blog. A blog about whatever he wants to talk about, which includes wonderful, wonderful wine.
So here it is:

In case you hate wine and think it is strictly for snooty snoot snoot snobberbums, I will also let you know that I also mail order beer. Beer not available in North Texas. Specifically, Moose Drool.
I drank Moose Drool on a vacation to Portland once and absolutely fell in love with it. Unfortunately, the distributor does not deliver to Texas. So I mail order it from a place called Liquid Solutions. You, too, can order it here.And, wouldn't you know it, Liquid Solutions also has a blog.
I think this is a wonderful idea - booze and blogs. I now follow both of these blogs.
The only downside is that now I will be tempted to drink and comment.
So if you decide to follow these same blogs and see a comment from me to the effect of, "YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL AND I LOVE YOU!!!! LOOOOOOOVVVVEEEE!!!! Um.... uh... BLLEEEEEAAAARRRGH!" you will know I am in my happy place.

blogging and commenting while under the influence of mind altering substances is a long standing tradition.
it's about time you joined in.
Heather, who says I haven't been doing this all along?
I think it is time I came out of the closet and admitted it.
Your happy place is hugging a toilet and puking?
BTW, they've started something up here where you can go 'wine tasting' at a store. They have wine in these machines that you can stick a card in and get a portion of a glass. You pay for every taste. Way to rack up some money. But I did have a dry gewurtz. there that was really amazing.
Robert - thanks for the post -- and this whole blogging while enjoying adult beverages...it's a good thing!
Congratulations on the work accomplishments!!!!!
I love the idea of drinking for charity. It's going to help with my Christmas shopping for sure. Thanks!
"I drank Moose Drool on a vacation to Portland once and absolutely fell in love with it."
I'll take your word for it.
Yeah, what Heather said.
And Moose Drool? The phrase in and of itself...Pukage.
