simply lovely


Through my adventures in reading I found an article in the NY Times Style Magazine discussing fabulous women and wine. The author, S.S. Fair, sails through her musings choosing wonderful vintage women throughout the ages and specific wines she believes would suit them for an imaginary dinner party she is hosting. Besides the whimsically technical writing, I found this part of the article to be especially appetizing:

"Beer is for rowdier pursuits; cocktails are foreplay; hard booze is for quite desperation. But wine sees life through rose-colored glasses and sings its own praises with loose lips and happy feet. I am a woman, hear me pour."

What a fantastic taste to linger on my palette.
