I have a birthday coming up next week and a few of my family members have asked me what I wanted or needed for a gift. Although there are plenty of things most people would qualify as a need, wine is likely normally not one of them.
Well, I disagree.
Moms NEED wine, in fact, they need someone to enroll them in a wine of the month club (or maybe a wine of the day club???). A mom with a little wine in her is more relaxed, less bothered by the little things and definitely more fun to be around. I’m not talking about being drunk, just a little glass or 7 a night to help you relax.
Seriously, people, you’d like me better.






That looks cool! Now, see, the problem is, though, that you only get a bottle. As an experienced mom, you’ve got to have the box of wine. Less work – you don’t have to mess with a corkscrew. And, nobody knows who much you’ve drunk! Well, they can guess, but it’s not so easy to quantify.
I couldn’t agree more. It just takes me one glass after Jake is in bed to unwind. But, I do like you now, without the wine (or whine). :)
I wish we had that up here. My Dad is so hard to shop for but he is a wine drinker and he’d love something like that.
Renee, sometimes my family has such a hard time buying for me, I think they could get this for me every year and I’d be happy!
Celeste, I agree it would make a great gift when you just don’t know what to get someone! I’m going to keep it in mind for the holidays.
I’ll drink to that Heather! I really hope I don’t sound like my life revolves around wine. More around wishing I had some!
Tara, I’d take chocolate too! But it doesn’t make me as much fun to be around, hehe!
Thanks Stacey, hopefully the family thinks so too!
Kirsten,
Hah, you made me laugh….I WANT TO KNOW HOW YOU KNOW! C’mon, which post? I agree with you on the win/win!
