French Wine

For my 30th birthday, that I recentley celebrated in Brisbane QLD with my friends at a Turkish resturant called Caravanserai - http://www.caravanserairestaurant.com.au/, my dear french friend gave me a bottle of wine.

Les Petites Vignettes - Pinot Blanc 2009

Its from the Alsace wine region and as the providence has switched between German and French sovereignty it is described as Franco-Germanic

It is a fairly light wine that is easy to drink and at 7.1 standard drinks a bottle is a devine way to brighten the cheeks.

I am right now drinking the last of my bottle.

Best Mates Wedding

So this last Saturday was my two best mates wedding.

It was a full house with only 4 people unable to make the day.

The Ceremony was short and beautiful, with a prosession of kids holding flame tourches in front of a joyous groome and an extremely happy bride.

The celebrant tied their hands together, then removing the satin ribbon his wife stitched the knot together and placed it in a box so that their knot will forever be tied.

Then followed the vows and the exchange of the rings.

I admit I cried. Couldn't help it, they're my besties.

Later followed a wonderful reception. Food, wine and beer oh my!

Speeches, the cutting of the cake and a wonderful group of people partying hard to celebrate an awesome union.

Love these guys! and so happy for them.
