I absolutely love to cook. I'm addicted to cookbooks, cooking shows and cooking blogs. I think the biggest disappointment I have had is that I haven't ever been able to just enjoy a glass of wine. A glass of wine would be cruel. It wouldn't be fair, it would be the beginning of a lot of heartache, or longing. But it always looks good. I watched Top Chef last night and watched the chefs drink a glass of wine with Jacques Pepin and my first thought is that he has one bottle of wine for six people. THAT is why I am not like others that can actually enjoy one glass of wine. One thing that I always notice is when people actually LEAVE WINE IN THEIR GLASS! Crazy talk.
It is something that I have to accept. I can't enjoy alcohol, I can enjoy food without alcohol, and my life is better without. One other thing that I can honestly say, when fine dining I used it as a license to drink as much wine as I wanted which would ruin the enjoyment of the food. Seriously, if you are obsessing over how much wine is left, how can you enjoy the food? Welcome to day 8!
