MY FIRST KISS...

AHHH.. SO HERE WE ARE. I LOVE WINE ( SOMETIMES TOO MUCH) LOL ITS SO SULTRY, SEXY, COMFORTABLE AND INTELLIGENT. YES WINE CAN AND DOES HAVE HUMAN-LIKE CHARACTERISTICS. THIS IS WHY I WANT TO SHARE WITH YOU MY LOVE AFFAIR WITH..WINE.

FIRST OFF LETS GO BACK A BIT, HOW DID I FIND THIS LOVE AFFAIR. WELL MY GRANDMOTHER WAS A VERY BOISTEROUS, STRONG, EFFICIENT PERSON AND HER WINES WHERE THE SAME. REMEMBER 'COLD DUCK" YEP BY ANDRE?  THAT WAS MY GRAPE JUICE AT 3 YEARS OLD..LOL NOT TO MENTION I GREW UP CATHOLIC FOR 15 YEARS SO COMMUNION WAS AWESOME!!!! AT ST.ELIZABETH THERE WAS NO GRAPE JUICE IN THAT BUILDING! SO THAT IS HOW MY FIRST LOVE AFFAIR STARTED WITH WINE. AS I GREW OLDER AND STARTED TO ' LEGALLY" DRINK, THE HARD LIQUOR WAS NEVER NICE TO ME, I WOULD BE THE 'UPPTY" ONE IN THE GROUP, WHILE OTHERS WERE DRINKING EVERCLEAR ( TELL YOU ABOUT THAT EXPERIENCE MUCH LATER, YIKES) AND MADDOG 20/20 AND EVERYTHING ELSE THAT I SWEAR PUT HAIR ON YOUR TONGUE AND CHEST!  I WANTED ZINFANDEL, OR CHAMPAGNE SINCE I HAD NO JOB AND IN SCHOOL I WENT FOR CHAMPALE, AND WAS ALWAYS READY FOR THE MASSIVE MIGRAINE THAT CAME WITH IT.. LOL.
SOOO LET' FAST FORWARD OH 25 YEARS OR SO. THE LOVE OF GREAT WINE RUNS TRUE IN MY FAMILY. I NOTICE EVERYONE HAS THEIR FAVORITE AND THE WINE MATCHES THEIR PERSONALITY. I WILL ALSO TOUCH ON THAT LATER. :-)

LAILA ( MY COUSIN) AND I WERE GETTING READY TO GO TO GENEVA, SWIZTERLAND, AND THE LADY THAT WAS DOING OUR MANI AND PEDI'S HIPPED US TO MOSCATO BY SARACCO.  THEN I NOTICED YEARS LATER MOSCATO BECOME..
