Description:

Everyone seems to have enjoyed our first swap, so I thought I'd start up another one

Your task is simple: send a bottle of wine (or non-alcoholic beverage of choice if your fellow swapper is not a drinker) that you love, or you think your fellow swapper will love. Expensive isn't necessary--there are a ton of great wines for under $10 out there. The best wine I've ever had cost $7.99 (2003 Bogle Petite Sirah, for the curious)

You should also include a whiny note. Tell a tale of woe, describe your biggest pet peeve, bitch about a coworker...what makes you want a drink? Tell your partner!

The best way to find a wine if you're not a regular drinker is to find places doing tastings. A lot of wine shops do them, and even some grocery stores.

Here are some websites to refer to:

I'll go ahead and note that whoever gets me as a partner doesn't have to worry about and alcohol / sedative interaction because I no longer have to take the stuff twice a day. Which ya'll probably know, but... eh, might as well point it out.

Thanks for the links, Heather!

I'm putting this on my watchlist so that I can slip in a few other swaps (you can only join twenty at a time) before this starts.

I'm going to sit this one out for now since I haven't done my homework and won't have much time to go out since Mitch's surgery is so close. :-(

I have purchased my wine! Now I just have to figure out a way to ship it...
