Wine

I haven't really talked too much about the wineries that we visited on our honeymoon. A lot of the places in Sonoma, and especially Napa, were like small castles. Sometimes it seemed to be about the building and grounds instead of the wine. That's not to say we drink our fair share of good wine, which we certainly did. So much good wine, in fact, that we now have a case of it sitting in my dining room.

The other cool part was the amount of different things we managed to find. I'm not sure we have two bottles of the same varietal, which I would not of suspected.

So, just in case you ever go there, here's my short list of the favorites that we visited:

1. Gundlach Bunschu - Good pretty much everything
2. Mumm Napa - Good champagne
3. Artesa - Good scenery

A Funny 'Story'

Here's a brief summary of a story that I was told the night of our wedding:

A bridesmaind and a groomsman go, alone, to a separate room to do something (put some flowers together, practice a speech, get ready for introductions, something like that).

They leave after a few minutes in the room and some apparent good times resulting in laughter. As they leave, a waiter outside the door smiles at them knowingly. Awkward, but a little bit funny.

A little bit later, the same waiter approaches the two and says 'You're secret is safe with me!'

Please fill in the blanks of this sentence: _____ and _____ were ____!
