Wine

Nobilo Sauvignon Blanc 2010 from Brazil
This is amazing. I have no idea how to describe wine so I will skip this part other then to say it is white. I can drink it day and night. It fits any mood.

Conte Di Bregonzo Amarone della Valpolicella 2007 My friend once told me this was a very good wine but as I am looking on the internet there are about 1,000 different brands and years of this one so I am not sure which one she meant. I assumed there was only one but I am afraid even Trader Joe's may have a couple of varieties. The one I bought recently was expensive $17.99 or something like this.

Villa Maria
sauvignon blanc 2011
My friend's cousin used to drink this. They made some wall art with the corks from what seemed to be just this bottle and gave it to my friend. The name stuck with me. Very good wine.

Chile
Concha y Toro
Frontera Chardonnay 1883

2010 Robert Mondavi Winery Napa Valley Merlot, California, USA

Sweater

I started this a year ago and then stopped. Blog entry Tuesday, March 2, 2010. Resuming today. I had to undo an entire sleeve. I forgot to increase on it. I am increasing now but not in the correct way. But I did the other sleeve wrong so just trying to be consistent.

The fun has begun. I looked at the photo of the sweater and realized I was supposed to knit after the patterned part. I also saw the pattern and it's a lot smaller then what I have done. Undo-undo-unravel-undo..

Visit to the knitting lady. I just realized what she told me 126-14-20 stitches left. Last night I was like .. huh.

Not done. But I did not think I was going to be. This is the front. I still have to finish the front, finish the sleeves, shape the neck and sew. For the last two I will have to visit the knitting lady.

Ватрушка

This is from Big Sky Bakery & Cafe. I only go there when I visit my dentist every six months. This is situational irony as in pastry and dentist in the same sentence. It was a circle but I had some before I took this picture.
