Wine Show!

This weekend I went to a huge wine show with Malinda, where we tasted more wines than I can remember. I learned how to properly taste a wine (but I didn't spit any out...not going to waste that!), I found a white that I actually enjoyed (Viognier), and came home laden with 5 bottles of fabulous, inexpensive wine. And if you live in the U.S. and can find this wine, splurge on it - it's absolutely amazing.

Also, I saw Broken Flowers, which was ok (you have to like Bill Murray to see this film, which, luckily, I do), and Wallace and Gromit, which was FANTABULOUS. Yaay bunnies.

Paris to come soon, I promise!

P.S. Happy Halloween!!

Today is sunny and 65 degrees...

...but in anticipation of the dreary winter days yet to come (Daylight Savings Time is this weekend!), I've gone back to the tried-and-true, emo-tinged title for my blog. Gotta love it. Although, as my experience of British traditions grows, I may have to change it to something having to do with puddings and pubs, or the like.

I'm still working on editing the Paris pics and work is particularly busy, so I'll provide the crowds with something to keep them satisfied in the meantime (I can't exactly let Evil Kanevil go unfulfilled, can I?)

Here are pics of my last weekend in Cambridge, where we ate yummy sausages claiming to be "hot dogs," went punting, consumed several bottles of wine, and went to see Nic's dad's band play a gig. All in all, a pretty good day.
