my life is incredible...really. sometimes i whine and groan for no reason at all, exercise, i guess. but i get invited to the coolest events. anyway, tomorrow, which is wednesday, i will be headed to an event to promote healthy living at the new mission grill in center city. free appetizers, $3 house wines. i cant tell you how excited i am. yes, i am constantly seeking info to make myself healthier, but what really got me to rsvp? the $3 a glass house wine.
what is "house wine"? probably the equivalent to a four-letter word for some wine folk. but not me. i have wine wisdom. i know enough to know that a good restaurant (i am a restaurant snob) would never carry a really crappy wine. why would they? so the house wine can only be so bad. and i have had great luck with ordering house wine. it's always the economical choice and unless you are on a splurge, first date or your husband forgot your anniversary, there is really no need to spend $10 a glass or $75 a bottle for your nightly buzz. and...if you ask the server for the name of the house wine, most likely they will tell you and wonders never cease...it's probably some well-trusted bottle you have at home.
so, i wont be afraid tomorrow, when i place my $3 order and because i am trapped by passion for this wine thing, this life of vino, i will dare to ask what it is and as long as its not some watered-down pinot grigio...i wont die.
all i do is for the underground.
don't be afraid to tilt the glass.
