I'm going to try and work on 'Fondly' tonight, but I need to get into the right mind space. The rather lovely Malbec I'm drinking is helping with that :)
Tonight, I found a wine dealer here in California that sells Normandy hard cider. Something I've wanted to try for ages. I should have my bottles next week.
Did anyone else see the little ballroom dancers on Dancing With the Stars tonight? How adorable were they?!? I wish I'd been that poised at eight years old.
Ack! 'So Close' on the iTunes. I'm going to be weepy now. But that's probably a good thing considering.
Seriously, I need to cut my nails. They grow like freaking weeds, and they are all ready interfering with typing!

You will find the best Normandy and Breton ciders are cloudy and almost completely still. The perfect drink chilled on a hot summers afternoon with some fresh bread and goat cheese or chocolate crepes.
