Um... an interesting combination in front of me right now....

Since with the sub-zero temperature, I have no mood going to the gym tonight, I decide to stay home and do nothing (again! 2nd night in a row.... Gosh, i love the days after a deadline). So in front of me right now on the left is a peanut butter sandwich... on the right is a glass of Sauvignon Blanc. Yeah - not your typical pairing... but heck I am hungry and i need to finish off the bottle of wine I opened on Saturday. I even considered microwaving some edamame, I'll see whether I am still hungry after I devour the PB sandwich.

On the topic of wine, I opened a bottle of Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Prosecco this weekend (it's with a bunch of friends). To my utmost disappointment, I like none of them. The chardonnay was okay (but definitely not as good as the one I tried in Napa from the same vineyard). The Sauvignon Blanc was forgettable. And the prosecco... oh the prosecco... It's just too "oaky" and does not have the crisp taste and aroma that I was hoping for. :( I know I should have gotten a bottle the vinho verde instead. Silly me of wanting to try something new.

On a totally different note, some have noticed the increase in number of blog post I wrote this year (for those folks reading from FB, I don't actually write these in FB... I just have FB automatically import from my blog). I guess this is mainly due to the fact that my desktop died a couple weeks ago. Sitting on a couch with a laptop apparently makes it easier to blogs. I'll see how long these updates will last. :p

I KNOW what you mean when it comes to couch + laptop! LOL

Never a big fan of Sauvignon Blanc (always think that it's on the dry side), however, tried this one earlier and i think it's "repurchasable"

can you just bring a *few* bottles of your favorites on the way back ;P
