Sorry about the absense of posts in the past few weeks. I am currently at home with pretty much nothing to do, so there's not much to blog about. However, this evening that all changed.
It all began as Jason, Chadwick, and I were sitting at The Brew enjoying some coffee (or chai as the case may be). Chadwick mentioned that he thought drinking wine while eating cheese and bread sounds nice. We all agreed but lamented the fact that none of us know anything about wine. So, naturally we turned to wikipedia. After learning a bit about wine, we decided that we should act on Chadwick's idea and purchase some wine, bread, and cheese and attempt to act cultured; hence the birth of the Goshen Chapter of The Finer Things Club. We all ventured on over to Chalet and asked an employee what his opinion was, since that is what wikipedia suggested we do. He let us sample a few that they had open and the one that caught our fancy was a 2006 (it's a good year) Riesling. It was a sweeter wine, but not too sweet, and it was wonderfully delicious. We then headed on over to the grocery store and bought some french bread and swiss cheese. A lovely time was had by all and I think we began a wonderful thing. We have a long way to go in the culture department, but hey, it's a journey.
