So back in April DH and I decided to play a Cribbage Championship since we were going to be spending so much time together. We called it The Covid 19 Invitational Cribbage Championship. We worked our way through 19 games and today I WON!!!!! this is amazing as he's the better crib player and was the one who taught me! I think we may get a mug or something made up for the winner. And now starts the 2nd Covid 19 Invitational Cribbage Championship! May the best (wo)man win! We play cribbage too! Bf likes to play on a board, I like to play thru an app coz I’m lazy and I don’t like to add the points up lol |

So DH and I bottle our own wine (at a place in Port Perry). We've been doing this pretty much since the wine place opened (so 20 years? probably a few more) Last fall we were bottling our white, and jokingly said to Julie (the proprietor) when we were done...we really should slow down a bit. As we left the store we both said simultaneously "See you in a month!"
So back we go on December 22nd to bottle a batch of red and a batch of white. Lockdown is coming, don'tcha know. When we got home DH counted ALL the bottles of wine in the house (including the ones we bought on our mini wine-tour to Prince Edward County last September, and the ones people gave us that we're planning to re-gift someday (too sweet) and the cooking wine....etc.
We have exactly 100 bottles of wine in the house as of yesterday! LOL
Prime Rib tonight so you KNOW that number is going down.

100 bottles of wine?! You know, there's almost a song about that (100 Bottles of Beer on the Wall).

Here's a cute story.
For Christmas our son Mike and family gave Emily (age 2 1/2) a build-a-bear - bunny. When you squeezed the hand, in Mikes voice, it says "Guess what? CHICKENBUTT!!!" This a something their boys joke about all the time. Emily was so scared of the bunny that Erin had to take the speaker box out. Then she loved the bunny. And she also got a huge kick out of pushing the button that says "Guess what? CHICKENBUTT!!!" Go figure.
We phoned their house last week and Emily wanted to answer the phone, but Erin accidently sort of, grabbed it first. Em had a huge melt down. Cried and cried.
Fast forward a week, the phone rings and Erin lets Emily answer it, thinking it was us. A man on the other end asked to speak to Mummy. Emily said "Daddy?" No, he said, "It's Sean from work" (Erin's boss) Emily says "Hi Sean, Guess what? CHICKENBUTT!!!"
Good thing she gets on really well with her boss. Her husband calls him her work husband LOL.
