Oooh, I decided to be tres indulgent since the weather cancelled my gardening and shed painting plans.

Just put a Pinot Grigio, a tenderloin fillet and a bunch of asparagus in the fridge for tomorrow, deciding I am important enough to go to the trouble to fire up the charcoal for me, myself and I.   Then uncorked the Petite Sirah to keep me company while I sit outside and watch the rain and the birds going hard at the mulberry tree for the next 20 minutes or so.   'Twill go well with the brie as soon as it warms up a bit.   Rented 4 movies, two for tonight, one for early tomorrow morning, and one for tomorrow night. Tomorrow afternoon, I'll finish the Kaye Gibbons novel I started a month ago but haven't had time to get back to.

MOM, you wanna come spend Memorial Day with me? I'll be happy to share the fillet.
