I’ve been so busy with moving, getting unpacked, and starting my new job that I keep getting my blogging days screwed up. Here’s my Things I Love Tuesday post, on late Wednesday night…

I love this wine, for several reasons; when Tom would come visit me in Wilmington we would get dinner, then go somewhere else for drinks or dessert.  If we wanted drinks we’d go to the sofa bar in downtown since they were close and had great martinis. One of the times we went Tom treated me to a glass of this wine, a vintage port. I loved it so much he bought me (a very expensive) bottle of it for Christmas 2008.  I drank a little bit here and there since then, but had just enough for Tom and I to toast with it to celebrate my moving to Raleigh and us getting back together again.

Also: My new job – being excited about my potential there, having DVR to record LOST for me since I work nights, being able to watch LOST after working all night, finding a good home for Lucky and Tama, homemade grilled (organic, free range) chicken sandwiches,  not letting frustrating situations discourage me like they used to, learning to drive around Raleigh without getting lost, watching Heroes on Netflix, and last but not least Tom – for a million reasons, but right now for knowing me so well and being so good for me. :)

Chocolate Wine? Yes!

I saw this bottle of Chocovine the other night at Harris Teeter and thought “Ok, this will either taste really good or really bad.”

Oh my gosh it’s so good!  It tastes kind of like a mudslide, chocolatey but strong. Very strong, lol. I hope it’s something they continue to carry because I’ll definitely buy it again.  If you see it be sure to pick up an bottle for yourself and try it.
