Sue me. I'm a heathen.
It's been hot as hell here lately, and that hasn't made life any happier for me. There's very little A/C in SoCal, and absolutely none at our house. Usually we have a nice breeze coming off the ocean, but the past five or six days were absolutely miserable.
Why am I a heathen, you ask? Well, I'll be frank here. I'm committing the major sin of drinking a CHILLED glass of Merlot. I stuck the bottle in the fridge the other night when I thought I wanted red wine, but I also knew I wanted something cold. Turns out it was other cold stuff that I drank that evening (I love our kegerator, and can't believe that my better half wants to sell it. But that's neither here nor there...). But tonight! Tonight I am having cold red wine. And it tastes quite dandy, thank you.
Please note that we are indeed having red meat with dinner. I didn't want to push the envelope too much.

Ahhhh, not such a heathen if you were to add fruit and brandy.
I'm using Merlot as the base for my chilled Sangria at the restaurant, and it's definitely chilled.
Ooooh, sangria sounds good. I've been doing Lemonade w/ Blueberi Stoli, but I am ready for a change. Anyone have a good recipe?
LT, if you are looking for a home for the kegerator in Bend let me know, we are thinking about picking one up!
I want your recipe for lemonade with blueberry Stoli! That sounds awesome!
My favorite summer drink is a Dark and Stormy -- it's a shot of Gosling's Dark Seal Rum with Ginger Beer (yes, Ginger Beer, not Ginger Ale) and a squeeze of lemon. YUM!!
I'll keep in mind that you might want the kegerator. I want to keep it, but if hubby can change my mind and we don't offload it before we leave (IF we can ever leave), I'll let you know!
