I think cooking wine is probably better :lol:

Dollar store wine - we tried it a couple of summers ago for a laugh and half heartedly thinking that maybe if it was any good then we could invest... I don't even think it was drinkable!!

That is really funny.

I know 2 buck Chuck is not fine wine, but in my opinion, it's totally drinkable.

Course now I've realized I have work tomorrow. I don't know how the heck I forgot about that. But that doesn't mean Friday night Zinfandel is out of the question. ;)

Working under the influence?! Sounds like the best way to me!!!

I know - I am so not a wine snob - I swear some of the really expensive wines taste totally nasty to me so as long as I like it then I don't mind!! There are some lovely white zinfandels out there as well which are gorgeous chilled with an ice cube. Currently I have a gallon jar of $7.99 Paisano - I think it is a Carlo Rossi one or something... cheap anyway and totally drinkable :D

Ok news for me and completely OT :D

My brother (younger - he is 24) just got promoted - his manager was leaving so he went for his job and had to go through two interviews. He got the job and a £11,000 a year payrise!!! He's looking at coming out to visit me next year now because he will be able to afford it :D He's going to be in charge of two teams and he is totally made up about it :D

My mum took him and my other brother out to dinner to a) celebrate and B) to thank my other brother (21 next month) for helping her sort out the attic and she felt sorry for me because we missed out. She said she had put some money in my account as a surprise so I was expecting maybe £50 for a meal for me and Jeremy and for some wine we picked her up in Tombstone. I check my bank and she put in £150!!! I am soooo happy!! It will really help us get a few other bits and pieces for the house :D

Of course then I had a shower and got all weepy but mnleh :P

Hahaha - well there must be *something* to do there, surely?! Will you have time off work or will they be left to their own devices for the days? Will they be driving? If they will then they can go see those caves and drive down to Bisbee and see the mines and things. Maybe they can hop across to Mexico if they are so inclined :D

http://www.visittucson.org/

Send them this - maybe they can dig something out of it if you just let them know how hot it will be... I am sure they won't be that insane to go stomping off in 110f!! I know I wouldn't!! I have a bicycle now though and I haven't ridden in years!! That is going to be fun!!

Did you get the photos I sent yet? Did I even send them? I know I have them on my puter now... doh! I don't think I sent them yet! Lemme go do that now :D

they've never been outside europe and have quite an experience to make. they are by far not independent enough to go on a trip like bisbee. and i can't take time off. oh well....

thanks for sending the picutres! i will look at them when i get back from grocery shopping :)

hugs!

Hehe - oh no - so you have to babysit them and let them deal with public transport!? AhhhH!!! Well hopefully that site will give them some ideas - I am sure in the day the mountain trails aren't too dangerous animal-wise are they? Or will they come out in the light as well? Eep! I know we are meant to get coyotes but I think I would be scared to go anywhere with so many creatures around!!

Oh! Did you read the thread with the person who doesn't know how to afford her husband moving over?! It's in this forum :o I'm like - hello?!?!?!
