Friday Night Wine

Ran errands in the friends' neighborhood, and we were going to sit down to a late dinner at the nearby eatery. Randomly texted them a ‘in your hood, hello’, and a reply came immediately, "Tapau your food and come over for drinks! We ordered pizza too!" OH. They were home, celebrating the passing of an important academic exam, and obviously didn't mind company. Okay! We ordered extra dishes. Had a pint of Guinness (on tap) while waiting for the food to be ready.

Very nice to sit down for a quiet evening with good company on a Friday night. Their little wine fridge has upsized to a giant one. Hahahaha. They're totally into wine now, and they've got pretty good bottles that don't cost an astronomical amount. Whewww. I'd feel really bad to drink pricey wines because I won't be able to fully appreciate them. I'm still most familiar with Italian wines. Dunno why. Something about their grapes and profiles which my noob palate really likes.

We weren't exactly joking when we said that we would contribute towards the contents of the friends' wine fridge and crash their couch for wine. LOL. They appreciate wine more than we do. Any wine I have at home ought to be consumed asap. I don't intend to have a wine fridge since it’s mainly whisky I stock at home. At the rate we're drinking the friends' wines, we ought to replenish them! Tonight, we had three bottles of rather beautiful reds which went down easy.
