aw ...

yesterday was a particularly nasty day - I can't remember the last time a client e-mail reduced me to tears (of rage, mostly).

we were making chicken and lentils for supper, and discovered we were out of lemons, so [livejournal.com profile] perlmonger manfully volunteered to pop up to the off licence and get some (we have a very civilised off licence in the village).

and bless him, he bore home a bottle of one of my absolute, uncheap, favourite wines - Cloudy Bay, *straight out of their chill cabinet*, so I could drink it straight away.

[mwah]

that, the aforementioned lentils, and a couple of episodes of West Wing made things a little brighter. Although I'll have to deal with it today somehow.

You drink enough of it unoaked and combined with pinot noir, darling. I think you should have a more open mind. :P

Hmm, you may have to convince me at some point. I'm willing to be re-educated on the unoaked, but adding pinot noir? Isn't that just making adult Ribena?

Not at all sweety. Chardonnay + Pinot Noir without the skins, with a little bottle fermentation = the glorious fizz.

The TraditionL Method, innit? :)
