Busy Weekend

Last weekend, I had a ton of errands to run.  I got a lot of small things out of the way which I am happy about.  I put off small things because I deal with the big cases first but every once in a while, you have to do as Nike says .. Just Do It.

I manage

• to get some banking stuff out the way.
• sign up for the Wilton Cake Decorating I class in June
• went to see my friend Billy's new house. 
• grocery shopping - I was out of the basics (milk, eggs, bread, fruit).
• filed my income tax return
• attend a yoga class
• made bbq ribs for dinner and made dried bok choy soup.

Whew .. not bad for a weekend, eh?  Next weekend will be busy too.  I have to clean out my car.  :(  My friend Jason is also visiting so I have to find time to meet up with him.

One item I don't want to really mention is that the 2009 Bordeaux Futures came out.  I looked over the first offerings and I only found one that I felt was worth buying.  I ended up submitting an order for Lafleur-Petrus.  When I took a second look at the list, the Gazin was worth getting too but I didn't order it.  Right now, it's a lottery.  I don't even know if I'm going to get the case I ordered.  I may not even get the LP.  Side note:  the Trotanoy was notably missing from the Pomerol list in the first offering.  It was there for the 2008 Bordeaux Futures first offering list.  Maybe it will appear in the second offering.

The second offering will have all the really good stuff.  I can't wait until it comes out.  I didn't want to spend a lot on the first offering because I figure I'll do some damage on the 2nd round.  I've always wanted to own a Mouton-Rothschild.  ;-)  We'll see ..

After all of this, I'm going to have to save up for a Eurocave next.
