Hmm depends on what you would qualify as interesting.  Haven't had vino but I had several swigs of Old Parr Scotch on the rocks yesterday.  Tuluyan na ata ako nagiging alcoholic.  :lol:

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. HEH! 

 

Di ka lang pala kasama sa ANG-TV kasama ka din sa BAD. :P  But kidding aside,  celibacy seems to be a career for me. :lol:  Eh di ba the hubby and I were in a long distance relationship?  Eh papano ako hindi magiging celibate nyan??!?! :lol:

 

Naksh.... ganda naman ng analogy.  Sana mag dilang anghel ka pare!  Lilibre kita ng isang Gato Negro kapag hindi nagkatotoo yan. :lol:

sorry again, but what is Ang-Tv and Bad? my tv channel over the weekend was stuck to espn and i had nothing to watch but 10-hours of golf!!!! now i have to call the cable guy!!!! :rolleyes:

sorry again but d ko gets yung kaka boy!!! of course an assumptionista wont say finger finger while in uniform... (she'll say that when she graduates and works in an ad agency!!!) :lol: she'll say pitik pitik or making pindot the key board (sabay breakof the neck so the head falls on one side then when the hair starts to cover her face, she flips her head the other way!!!) *strikers ... pa add pa... yung buti ka pa...d ko rin alam yon!!! deprived childhood ata ako... o laking seminaryo... dapat nasa ex-sem!

 

i just realized that next week will be pretty tight for me. i have a japanese friend coming over and he said we have to play golf and talk over some business dev...then my amos last night in our meeting told me that a korean businessman is arriving next week to look at some properties or perhaps do some M&As and play golf! but before all these could happen, my amos also said we have to practice before all the guests arrive!!! what a tiring week, it will be! ;) so much work!!!

 

what a coincidence! as i was running tonight (i had to since my last run was friday pa, didnt run last tuesday morning as it was drizzling!) and it was raining, i was writing poetry in my mind. the events were dramatic, i, the solitary runner, wet roads, and lights reflecting, air was damp, sweat falling and mixing with bits of rain which was falling all over me randomly.. i wanted to write it but i said NAH!!!

 

teka, bakit nandito to, OT na to ha!? e san ko pa pwede ilagay???

 

when i used to write prose and essays... i was never under the influence!! yan d ot! :) when i drink i can only write simple tasting notes! B)

I think a whole lotta poetry was written at the height of vino induced drunken stupor! So by all means Senyorrrrrrrrrrrr sumulat ka na!!!! Ayan hindi OT. I think when we attempt to describe wine it is almost like poetry as it engages all the senses with so many lyrical words. :)

With only 15 tables, I don't think Per Se is much of a threat to any restaurant there. Just too small, the dining experience not a pop-in-for-a-bite kinda thing, so they're not pulling too many customers away from anyone. In fact, because people get frustrated trying to get a reservation, they end up at other high-end places so I thnk it actually drives up business everywhere. Like in Yountville - Bouchon is always busy, as are Bistro Jeanty and Pere Jeanty (owned and run by Philippe Jeanty former executive chef of Domaine Chandon just across the highway) because French Laundry draws so many people that it can't accomodate.

 

Per Se is an interesting name for a resto, as much as French Laundry is...

pare are you familiar with the Norton grape? It's velvety feel is reputedly a cross between a merlot and a pinot noir, besides being earthy and spicy. It comes from the Midwest and Virginia, from where it was originally discovered....

 

a friend of my collects corks saying that it has a tenderizing property. just pop in  couple in a casserole where you are cooking meats and ... the meat get tenderized, daw!

 

i dont know, he just gets my corks but i never got to try his cooking!  :lol: right, pinoy?

 

Must be because it comes from wood - oak to be exact. I remember my mother putting matchsticks or toothpicks in tenderizing beef. Must be the same principle. It could also come in handy when you warm something in a microwave. A friend of mine reported na sumabog yung karekare na ininit nya sa microwave - or at least some sauce spurted up and hit him above the eye. He suggests putting some toothpick in whatever you heat or warm in a microwave to absorb the heat or something. A cork might also do the trick...

Methinks I gotta drink a glass or two before I try out these tricks with a cork :P

 

The reason why I collect corks is that aside from my quirky fascination with its different designs, I have this wild notion in the farthest reaches of my wine-addled brain that someday I can make use of them in some form of design for an improbable wine bar or wine-themed resto that I might put up :goatee:

 

May use ang cork.  Italian housewives threw two or three corks when they boiled beef or any other meat dish.  It makes the beef tender in a shorter period of time.  So it saves on propane. 

 

I always get a cork or two and use it.  Kaso lang you can't use it repeatedly. 

 

One time lang.  BTW my wine post is i always use cork from a red wine whichI drank.

 

parang you are so familiar with Italian housewives, pare :rolleyes: :evil: :lol:

 

Are you sure the corks are used for cooking Pinoy ?.... I know of other uses for cork and it aint for cooking. He ! he!

 

Hi my gurus : Masi, Bods stc.....

 

hmmm what other uses?

with regards to cork, I think you're the guru :evil:

Hard of hearing Bods?  Hahahaha did someone make you deaf again with some thigh-clapping?  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

Hmmm gold or silver ba yang trophy?  Pwede bang rhodium? :D

 

Haha celibate days are going to be back soon. :)  Not that I mind, hahaha sanay na ako eh!  May PhD na ako on that.

He's yelling because you are hard of hearing :P

 

what's this about some Thai clapping - was this something you saw on your recent BKK sojourn? :boo:

Friday?? I'll be on a plane from Taipei to SF Friday night. I'm in Taipei on business right now. 3 am - I'm jetlagged so I got up to surf the Web and do emails. They guys in CA are at work so I[m getting lots of emails. I should go back to sleep. No wine to drink and the bars are closed...... :cry:

yup! i was just about to say something about the assumptionist neck twisting and handless hair-flicking (i think this is taught from grade and high school and carried through college) and your avatar... isang genetic map lang siguro kayo!!! parang yabmubs iisa lang ang enlish teacher thats why they all speak alike! :lol: can you imagine yourself enterring a call center with alll the khans and singhs of the world and speaking at the same time. :lol: (now, i'm being mean! :thumbsdownsmiley: )

 

i have stopped writing... for no apparent reason kuno! (see pens thread. OT na ako dito, matagal na!)

i still claim that my best writings came in my happiest moments... the wifey keeps a scrap book!

 

when i drink.. i try to release all inhibitions (but still keeping self respect) and unveil a true person petrified by years of a pretentious corporate layering. :grr:

 

i will not be kaka, ang-tv and bad... from now i will behave :hypocritesmiley: ... there are others on this thread too you know :unsure: have a good one.

hop over!!! you are just 1.5 hours from joing this hilarious, irreverent bunch of wineheads (yan ha winehead sinabi ko, hindi d***heads like pinoy knows me calling each and every happy ho* pol**!!!

 

that's the trouble whenever you cross the dateline on your business trips.... you are expected to work in the morning (when guys on the otherside are sleeping) and work (when you are supposed to be asleep because the guys on the otherside are already awake!)

 

good luck!!!
