This is what a 13 year old Twinkie looks like. I’ve had this in the Twinkie sarcophagus bestowed upon me by former co-workers. The wrap is airtight still but a sickly sweet smell permeates through the thin plastic. The Twinkie is crumbling with age and feels petrified. I do not believe it is edible.

Wine Tasting at Grape and Gourmet - 16 Nov 2012
Been a busy week for us, so we were going to pick-up a chicken from Sam’s. This is what it looks like when the rotisserie is being unloaded. $4.88 for a whole, cooked bird—can’t go wrong.

Cheap & Cheery - Nov 2012
Cheap and Cheery today. Nice line-up.
Last night’s tasting line-up at Grape And Gourmet, Alex was our guide :). The Prisoner was great. The big bottle at the end is a special release magnum and only 60 were available in the state of Virginia. Grape and Gourmet received two of them and only had one left for sale last night. The wine: Laetitia Sparkling Brut Cuvee NV, Laetitia “Estate” Chardonnay, Laetitia “Estate” Pinot Noir, Laetitia Pinot Noir “Les Galets”, Orin Swift “The Prisoner”, and Orin Swift “Saldo” Zinfandel.
