It's been a very long week. My partner at work has been dealing with her ill child and therefore has been calling out sick. Each day, my production list looks a little bit longer and soon 9 hours stretches into 10 and then into 11. I've been considering cutting out the whole driving home and just setting up a cot in the back office between the fax machine and bookcase that holds my pizzelle maker.
Exhaustion has taken hold. But so has the desire for a leisurely glass of vino.
"She owes you a drink," the head chef said to me the other day.
"No," I reply, "she owes me a bottle of wine. With a curly straw!"
He laughed, but I was serious.
My wine of choice for said bottle would be Middle Sister's Pinot Grigio (actually a blend of pinot grigio, chenin blanc, and chardonnay). While I do find the wine incredibly tasty, I initially picked up the bottle because the label was fabulously designed with a likeness of a drama queen (who reminds me a little of myself).
It's light and crisp with apple and pear flavors. Under $12? Even better!
A perfect conclusion to a long week at work. Curly straws are optional, though, I recommend them.
