I Don't Like Wine



The red or the white
Or the hard hard truth
Matters not to me
Which you choose
I’ll pretend to sip
Looking over the rim
My most sultry gaze
On your beloved face
And then we’ll laugh
Because candlelight
Feels silly to us –
Aren’t the Braves on tonight?

  16. ha, ha, ha, ha.

    I once read some survery that said 70% of wives would prefer cheesecake to more "sultry activities" so I guess that most likely goes for preferring wine too! :)

  17. so many men would love your version of romance! :)

    But Jannie Funster, I want the cheesecake, sultry activities AND the wine!

  18. I loved it! But I must admit I do love my wine. Rarely in a goblet though. I like the Italian wine glasses that resemble juice glasses.

I woke up not feeling well and skipped church (for the second week in a row - oops), but that doesn’t keep me from being deep in the throes ...
