Well the Really, Really, Really, good shit wine party was this last Saturday. We had about 30 people. I was worried for a while when we were getting RSVPs back say they were busy or out of town. It all worked out, although a number of friends whom we were looking forward to seeing couldn’t make it.

We asked everyone NOT to bring wine and for once they seemed to have listened. We forgot to tell then not to bring to much food. We could have fed a small army. The tri-tip was amazing and gone in about 5 minutes, maybe less. The beer can chicken came and went as did the lasagna and most everything else. The good news is we have some great leftovers. Who knows, we may finish the carrot cake tonight. The cheese cake didn’t last long enough for leftovers.

As hoped we have whittled down our wine supply by about 20 bottles so most of our collection is now in the wine fridge. I got to spend a little time with almost everyone but not enough time with anyone. I told Eileen this morning that our next party should be small and more intimate. Then she reminded me I have already planned parties in October and another one in December. Oh well, the best laid plans…
