I went back to Heartland Pantry today and bought some more cheap groceries, and a bottle of Tisdale’s Moscato wine. I’ve never heard of Moscato, but I was in the mood for some wine, even though my stomach will hate me later.
I was incredibly proud of myself for getting the cork out without destroying it – usually I wind up with little bits of cork all over. Then I notice that this cork didn’t expand immediately, and it would probably fit right back in the bottle, saving me the trouble of finding my wine-cap-things.
Then I looked closer. Hmmmmm…..
It’s fake and made from some sort of foam-like plastic. I don’t know how I feel about that. I’m fine with cheap wine, but a fake cork? Really? Just put a screw-top on that bottle – it won’t offend me.

I wonder how that cork would burn? To the firepit!

And the caption on the last picture made me laugh. Instead of reading it like it says “I’ll be using this to cook a portion of chicken”, I read it to say “I will be pouring this on the head of the first chicken I find walking around.”
Kristi says
Is that wine Green???
Lloyd says
I don’t remember it being green. I think that’s just a reflection from the beer lizard.
Kristi says
Are you sure about that? It sure looks like some kind of evil-witch concoction from this angle.

What’s a beer lizard?
And I like the new fake corks. (I always dig my fingernails into the real corks…and then they look ugly.)
Lloyd says
That sounds like an idea for a future post.
