7 Comments
I have gotten an overwhelming number of positive responses to my first post regarding my Project Get Healthy. I am grateful that so many people have not only read my drivel, but have found it worth their valuable time to respond. I am humbled. Thank you all! I figure there’s no better way to follow up that post than with the results of week one.

I was never, and never will be, skinny or thin. Well, I was thin once for a few years, but more on that shortly. I clearly remember being 8 years old, and my parents taking me to Macy’s in Brooklyn for a new winter parka. I was standing in the kids section, looking up at the big sign that said HUSKY. That wasn’t a brand, it was a category. I was husky. Gee, thanks for that label.

Mulderbosch Cabernet Rose 2006

Typically when I think of Rose, I think of White Zinfandel. I think of the cheap, sweet wine I used to try to convince the girls to swill when I was younger. I also think of several great friends who prefer sweeter, fruiter wines, and aren’t interested in most of the other types of wine available. I also remember Robin’s comment of “I used to drink White Zin before I knew what wine was.” Luckily, Total Wine does a pretty good job of in-store marketing, and had some interesting wines on an entrance kiosk a few weeks back where I picked up a bottle of Mulderbosch Cabernet Sauvignon Rose for a mere $12.
