A Tasting Room Nightmare
This is my first attempt at video, animation and satire (well, I may have tried satire once before). Watch the world's most obnoxious tasting room guest as he drives the staff crazy!

10 Things I Learned About Wine (From My Three-Year-Old Son)
1. It’s mama's!
2. It tastes yummy!
3. It smells like wine.
4. Gold, sparkly labels are pretty.
5. You can visit a lot more wineries after a good nap.
6. Swirling and sniffing is fun, even with a glass of water (try it!).
7. Two wine bottles fit perfectly in the child-sized shopping carts at Market of Choice and Trader Joes.
8. Corks might taste really good when you put them in your mouth, but they are indeed a choking hazard.
9. If you drank water and juice all day, you would never have a hangover.
10. Wine pops!
Until we sip again…
Cheers!

3. Add optional music, dinner and/or fire and let simmer until the first glass is empty.
4. Pour second glass of wine.
5. Switch to enticing conversation and continue to cook over low heat until fully engaged (or is that engorged, I can't read my notes).

When I made this recipe, it led to a night not soon to be forgotten. I’d love to know how it turns out for you! Have your own recipe to share?
One last thing, if you like this recipe, consider trying this.
Until we sip again…
Cheers!

10 Things I Hate About You
1. Sometimes you fool me with your fancy packaging and cleverly worded label and then you turn out to be nothing like I thought you were.
2. I have to pay 400% your value to enjoy you in a restaurant.
3. We have way too much fun when we’re together, yet I always feel like shit the next day.
4. You're never around when I really want you most.
5. You’re so difficult, you even require a special opener (unless of course I’m feeling particularly talented or sufficiently motivated).
6. You absorb my entire entertainment budget.
7. Even when you’re bad, somehow you’re still so good.
8. When you’re gone, I’m always left wanting more of you.
9. You always steal my thunder. I spend days slaving over the menu and cooking the meal, yet all they notice is you. All they talk about is you. All they remember is you.
10. You’re so damn irresistible… I always indulge, even when I know I shouldn’t.
Until we sip again, because you know we will…
Cheers!
