the weather was dreary and warm. the wine was smoky and dry. we were drunk within 45 minutes and hadn't gotten to every table.
fortunately, carroll the produce salesman from roanoke was there to tell us which wines we'd like and which we shouldn't try. it wouldn't have been a successful tasting event without him. i mean, come on ... the guy's an expert on bananas.
unfortunately, there were no german rieslings on hand to divert his attention, and as much as we tried to maneuver through the tent full of sardines (no re-entry), we couldn't shake him.
why did denise introduce us? because she was drunk first ... just barely. there wasn't enough bread to go around, so i can't blame her. but the galaxy burgers were good, and we left his card on the table ... in case the waitress was interested.
