Mmmmmmmmmm, Sangria.
Soooooo- are you making some for RC's b-day party???????
If only red wine did not give me a headache so bad that I would almost prefer to just beat my head against a brick wall.
So can I come to your house for some? Like in this exact moment. How about you pass me some through the computer. How cool would that be?
But how much time do you need to factor in to do all those converions?
Yuck, math.
Um, yeah. Conversions.
I really wish Blogger allowed you to edit comments.
Dude. You are awesome.
Oooh. This comes at a perfect time because next weekend is Scrapbooking Weekend!!!!!!! Thanks!

There was a restaurant in S-ville that had yummy sangria and tapas...what was then name of that place?!
Booze in a bucket. Awesome.
OK - we are celebrating Cinco this weekend with Margarita's (got a good recipe?) so I'll have to try this another time! But I can't wait!
MMMMmmm. That sounds great. What was in your bucket before the Sangria?
The bucket? Just about big enough for Bossy.
