Wine and Chinese Food

Today after work I decided to have a night in.  I went and picked up some wine at the wine store... A red, and a white.  Although, I actually plan to open up a red that I bought a few weeks ago... But now I have options!

It's always good to have options when it comes to wine.  Right?

Anyways, the one from a few weeks ago was a random grab... It was some red wine that is from Spain, apparently the name means "early grape". Tempranillo or something.  I'm excited to try it!  I've never had this kind of wine before.

The other two bottles of vino that I bought are a Chardonnay, the Francis Ford Coppola Winery one and this wine that is just called the red wine from a winery in Australia called 19 Crimes.  It came highly recommended.  I figured I should try it!

I was considering opening up the Chardonnay because the last wine I had was a red, although it was a port wine, and it was aged in whiskey barrels.  It's good stuff.  It's also like 40 bucks a bottle and it's also 20 percent alcohol.

It'll get you drunk.

I decided though to go with the other bottle and keep these two for another night.  Although, I also have some pumpkin beer in my beer fridge... Yes, I have a beer fridge... Yes, it's in my living room.  But to be honest, I don't use it ALL that often, and I mostly use it because I like to put stuff on top of it, so it's more of a small table than a fridge.

Also I just kind of had this fridge and didn't know what to do with it.

So, anyways, after the wine place, I hit up the Chinese food place.  I got about 8 pounds of food.

I got rice, and chicken, General Tso's... And a soup, and an egg roll, and some other small items.

I ate like a 10th of it.  Now I'm full.  Hello leftovers though!

So, I plan to just have a couple of glasses of wine and relax.  I'm just staying in and keeping an eye on this storm situation.  Anyways, that's my Saturday night.

Nothing major.  I'm about to practice some music... I'm just staying in.  Remotely connected to my work PC and doing a few small things.  Mostly just tired from the work week, but also a bit uneasy about the storm situation... Just hoping things turn out alright for those people down there in Florida.
