Halloween, first time I have been able to participate in this fun event in about 4 years. Last year I was working on a failed campaign and then 2 years ago I was entertaining parents....and 3 years ago I was in Transylvannia where Vlad Dracul was born. Ok that was cool.
Found a book I really want. A first edition signed Roland Barthes....now I have to save up.
Passed the irst part of International Sommelier Guilds wine levels last night. Three blind tastings and then a test. So I have passed, basically the Jr. College level in wine. Now onto level 2 and then Sommelier Diploma level. I am currently trying to memorize all the Grad Crus of Burgandy and Bordeaux. The books we have are amazing text books. Colourful and filled with maps and beautiful pictures. Still need to buy a wine fridge...kinda worried about some of my Bordeaux from '96. But I am sure they are all right.
