Kind of think the servers need some wine and perhaps a good cheese to relax a bit, don't you?

Or maybe they're relaxing too much?

Maybe you need to crack that whip!


Edit: Yay!

Happy Birthday!! to justinrsanderson

Edimax BR-6475nD is what I got. Unfortunately it no longer seems to be in stock on newegg. I paid $75 for it, but it came with a $15 or $20 mail-in rebate. Not as cheap as I remember, either!

And one of these WO's, I'll be awake for the Santana hat!!!

Or they don't know the prime directive for Wooters on WineBid .... Thou Shalt Not Outbid a Fellow Wooter.

Sorry I didn't know....

Never understood the mentality there. Unless you personally know said wooter, and even then, who cares. If you want a wine, bid it. If they want it, they can bid more. If it's a wooter you live close to maybe you can split, but otherwise, fair game baby.

It's ok. I lost a half case of that when my water heater went a few months back. I'm sure I'll have other opportunities.

Agreed.

Thanks!

I typically don't bid against friends/acquaintances unless it's for charity. You do whatever your little voice in your head tells you to ;)

I must be a sociopath then. My voice says love and war.

Ditto. But you have to make allowances for them. They are from the Central States. You know, the ones that formed the Donner Party.

Oooo, speaking of good cheese: Anyone heard anything from Three Sisters Cheese lately? We have a new cheesemonger in Buffalo and she has even heard of Serena and Serenita! ddeuddeg and I LOVE those cheeses!

I'm pretty much with you, unless it's a friend (not just an acquaintance), and I don't think anyone would know they were bidding against me, anyway, so I'd have no right to complain. By the same token, it's not likely they'd know I'm the one bidding against them, either.

Isn't the 3L bottle up now the one that started this Wine Woot-off?

Does that mean it's ending tonight? Hmmmm.

mommadeb1 wrote:I like that button!!

There's this one too!

mommadeb1 wrote:need ideas please... Hubby has tons of fresh mint growing... Need suggestions on what to do with all of it...thanks!

This went over very well with a non-drinking friend at a dinner party.

Grapefruit Soda - 10 servings
3.5 cups fresh grapefruit juice
1.5 cups mint simple syrup*
5 cups sparkling water or club soda

mix juice with syrup
add 4oz of mix to 4oz sparkling water



*1 1/2 cups packed fresh mint leaves
1 cup sugar
1 cup water

boil all together until sugar melts. Simmer for 2 minutes and strain through sieve, pressing hard on solids, and cool.

Cool syrup with leaves on stove for stronger flavor.

Probably right, but the last paragraph in the Woot write up is interesting ....

"You know what, I’ll do my part to speed this little guy up! In for three! Unless… No, never mind. I don’t even need to consider that as an option! A one-day Woot-Off? Ha! Impossible!"

I really don't need that sort of thing. I hope it ain't so, but I'm betting it is.
