By this time tomorrow, I will have been on the bus for an hour with 44-8th graders en route to Quebec City. Still need to pack! The good news is that most of my stuff is ready--just need to pop it in the suitcase. Problem: I can't find my neck gaiter nor my liner socks! Ugh! I guess I'll have to make a run to one of the local sporting goods stores that starts with a D tomorrow. I thought I knew where those things were. Darn! Off to bed. Not sure of wifi availability at the hotel. We'll see.

I finally figured out what Welsh is. At some point a bunch of Russians got lost, acquired a British accent thing and BAM, you got Welsh! Kinda like how French is Latin as spoken by Gauls.
edit: I think I just inadvertently made fun of the entire deuddeg clan

Gotta love Woot. This is from a local store, I've been drinking these varietals forever because of the people here (special tip of the cap to iByron)
Wednesday March 13th 5:00-10:00pm
$15 per flight
This week we will feature three "alternative" rich, concentrated and unique grapes from the producer of 7 Deadly Zin's, Micheal David. These wines appeal to palates looking for ultra-dark and thick but other than the usual Zinfandel, Cabernet and Petite Sirah.
This is what Michael David's Inkblot program is all about. Previously available only directly from the winery, the name says it all: these are wines are so black, purplish, and wonderful that you can stick the wines in a pen and use them for the ink. Winemaker Adam Mettler’s thinks of “these wines as spin-offs of Cabernet Sauvignon – dryer than any of our other wines, a lot of structure and tannin, but balanced with a lot of fruit."
This is a great opportunity to expand your palate and try different varietals but made in a new world style.
2010 Cabernet Franc $39
Perfume with notes of raspberries, black currant, violet, and graphite.
2010 Petit Verdot $39
An abundance of soft tannins, raspberry preserves, Dutch cocoa, and anise.
2010 Tannat $39
High tannin levels, raspberry aromas and dark color.
