Covey Run Riesling 2008

If you remember, last October I did a wine review and went with full disclosure that I am not a wine expert and I have no idea how to critique wine. But I’m still going to, because I want to. Because I really like wine and because the more I talk about it the more I will learn.

I do have a plan to help you be able to better be able to read my wine posts. I’m going to attend the Wine Bloggers Conference and there will be some great seminars there. My goal is to come out of the conference a certified wine snob. You can thank me now for getting the knowledge for you.

Hubby Drinks Wine Now

I knew it was going to happen eventually. We talk wine with a few friends and he’s showed a lot more interest and definitely more knowledge. He’s been listening to what I say as I’m learning. I’ll give him that.

You may have gotten the impression I like wine. It wasn’t always so. In fact it took me quite a few years to like the really sweet stuff. Then quite a few years to even branch out to other types. I think I only started drinking red wines about 4 years ago because friends would be drinking it. It really didn’t have anything to do with me not liking it. It had to do with me being too cheap to buy something I had no idea if I’d like. lol

Cheat Day is Here

Ok, well not actually for another hour. But technically today was the cheat day. However, I prematurely had a cheat day 2 days ago so I have been in penance today for my poor behavior. But not so tomorrow!

Now you just went WTF and probably clicked away. lol

Hubby and I have been on a 24 day challenge. Total healthy eating and drinking. Until Wednesday I hadn’t had a glass of wine since the SuperBowl. Can you believe it? I also hadn’t had a beer or any alcohol in that time smart ass, so don’t bother asking in the comments. I got over the no wine quick but man I wanted take out so bad. I’m still going to stay away from it as it’s a huge trigger for me.
