Put that taser away - I was just too busy training to update!

My 5th goal for this month is to educate you about some wine & beer. So far so good on that one!


Don't get me started on the pros and cons of merlot vs. pinot.

In all honesty, I usually prefer an Italian blend over a typically-Italian varietal. I'm kind of in love with super-Tuscans and IGTs (based on place, not grape).

But it's starting to get warm, so my go-to right now is either prosecco, Caymus conundrum, or Folie a Deux Menage a Trois white table wine.

Caymus Conundrum - yummy


Menage a Trois white table wine - yummy


Example of an IGT (from Sicily) vs. any particular grape - yummy

I have not had the Furat. The others = yum! I have to admit, I have found a 6 buck bottle of Cava that I like much better than most proseccos. Which is funny, because I typically do not like Cavas

Yes, pictures usually help. But not so much in this case. All those pictures taste the same.

Really, they do. I just tried 'em all. No difference in taste....

Ah well.... There's always the next random tasering. Perhaps I'll get more target practice next time! (That makes me happy.)

Doing a century ride (my first) went a long way towards pulling me over the monthly percentage thus far. No tasers for me!

And, in keeping with my other end of the challenge...packet pickup for the century was at a local brewery...I filled up a growler (64oz jar) with a nice coffee stout.

In all the Challenges I have done, I am, for once, enjoying getting tasered by Deeder-deeder.  I set myself up to fail miserably, and it's paying off.

Coffee stout?

Clearly, I'm uneducated about this kind of thing. Who knew they combined those two things into one product.....

Maybe I need to drink more.
