So I'd be delusional to think most of you wait until dinner on Saturday to pop open some alcoholic beverage. Even though college football is largely over untilt he bowl games start, I still find an excuse to start a bit early. This morning it's a big mimosa to start the day off right---delicious and nutritious!

Figured we had a "Friday First Pour" thread, which leaves out everyone's creative Saturday morning drinks (which might help you get over what you were drinking on Friday). Any takers? What time did you start this morning?

Probably around 2:00 p.m. when we go to a Shafer tasting.

I was still pouring from Friday @ 12:30am, does that count as Saturday morning?

A press pot of medium roast Sumatra...and looking forward to some nice-enough wine and beer at my office holiday party this evening.

Early afternoon screwdriver as I check in the latest arrivals and also do some label tags for ID. Listening to good tunes on my Bose Skylink speaker. Right now: Joel Piper, The Only One. Arrivals: Severino Red Blend and Rieslings, Milbrandt Cabs and Syrahs, Clos Pissarra Grenache Blanc. Crap!! Almost out of room in my spill over upstairs "cellar"... She who must be obeyed is NOT going to want to hear this. Not sure why, but she keeps asking me to read entries from The Moratorium thread. Must be amusing seeing such wussy comments about self control and non interest... Don't you think?
