Wine Spotlight (February 2011)

I had a couple wines that I purchased from BWI Liquors in Hanover, MD that I figured I'd share with ya'll.  Both are sweet wines, probably enjoyed best with chicken, fish or seafood, not really made for a steak or a red/meat sauce pasta.  But I'm not wine connoisseur so ask the owner of the liquor store before you buy it or read the back of the bottle it might tell you a lil better than I can.

The first picture, the Cantamessa is a sweet red wine.  It was a little bubbly but very sweet.  Comparable to Jam Jar but had a better taste.

The bottle in the picture on the right made by the Four Cousins is a Natural Sweet White wine that was very good.  It tasted like a dessert.  This was my second time enjoying this wine. It has a great price on it but doesn't taste cheap at all.

I'm actually going to get a couple bottles, including both of the wines below, this evening.  My wine rack is completely empty.  Well it only holds 6 bottles at a time so as soon as its full it ends up empty after a few good meals.  Enjoy!

Old School Love Song that Goes Wrong...



When this song comes on it has a great feel, the beat takes you away to an island or somewhere relaxing.  The title of the song just screams about being in love.  Seems like a song you should play on your wedding day or something, right.  Wrong... Ok I can get past the singers loud moments of scream singing that remind me of Biggie's Player Hater song, but at about 1:30 this song just goes wrong for the first time of many times.  Its hilarious to me, dude is keeping it real.  I just think he could've used some other words instead of saying.

"I have never met someone like you, so unpretentious and so kind, All I want to do is be with your baby, and DO IT to you all the time"

LOL, make love, hold you, something a lil less bold would've kept the song loving and chill.  But I guess to each his own.  For me I cracked up everytime he told her just wants to be with her and DO IT to her all the time.

The song is still a nice song, but because of word choice his intentions are less subtle than R.Kelly's 12 Play.

Here's another Four Tops Song for your entrainment and amusement.  This joint had good intentions too, but its no way I'm going to be excited about a chick name Catfish, no matter what you try to tell me. LOL



"Catfish, makes my, nature rise"
