And I put my snow blower in the garage. Now I'm going to have to use napkins again as I put the long sleeve shirts away. :lol:

That's something to celebrate, to be sure.

This reminds me: last week we opened a Boxler c-d-b from last year that had gotten lost in the cellar. I was a little worried when I opened it that it would be lacking something, but in fact I think it was better than a year ago--a little less fruit forward, a little more complex. So if you don't get around to all your R-F's this summer (I know, fat chance!), don't worry.

This years version is really tasty, Howard. We've drank about 6 bottles so far. There is a crunchy cranapple tartness to the usual strawberry frothiness, if that makes any sense. The wine seems to have become quite popular lately. My retailer told me there was 150 cases delivered to this market, and they sold over 100 cases in the first week. It may have been just one shipment he was talking about, I'm not positive. Anyway, good stuff.
