But then again, a little pickling is a great preservative! 8-) I just read about a Norwegian study that found teetotalers were more depressed that we imbibers. They don't call them 'spirits' for nothing! Continue to enjoy, as long as you keep sharing (blog-wise; I don't expect you to ship me a bottle or two - unless you're so inclined . . . in which case, I accept.)

Diva: I could see how a place like that would be terribly spendy - the credit we had on our cards was gone in no time at all! jenn: ah thanks :) I hadn't seen a sampling system like it before but I'd have no doubt that there are others like it scattered about the place. Duo Dishes: a fond appreciation, that is indeed what I have; and maybe we could do a city swap sometime - you come dine with me in Dublin, then I come dine with you in LA? OysterCulture: no need to feel guilty at all - I was thankful about the lack of Guinness drinking the next morning :) And a Sonoma trip or similar sounds great - I think that my next trip to the Bay Area will need to be way longer than the last one!

I promise on your next trip to SF to make it up with some foodie field trip to Sonoma or some such place to try to match the wonderful evening you showed me and my mom. By the way, you were not the only one that was stuffed - thank goodness my mom and I walked back to the hotel - we needed a bit of exercise after that delicious meal. I owe you a picture, which you should get soon. The upcoming culinary events sound like so much fun, and I look forward to reading your culinary adventures.

Not as fun as saying we're eating in Ireland though. Oh, and there's no such thing as a lush...just someone with a fond appreciation! We have our dineLA that starts in a couple of days.

Your rep is perfectly in tact. hehe... That's a pretty neat way to sample some wines. I think there's a place here in the states that dispenses wine tastings like that. New York, maybe?

So much fun, but terribly spendy! The husband and I dropped a bundle there in a very short amount of time. Yikes! Oh, and love your clever title, Spud! Happy weekend!

I lift my glass of whatever-happens-to-be-on-hand and drink to you, Madam. :) Personally, I don’t think you should have to justify your predilections, DS. ;) And your reputation continues to shine!
