you chose wisely

the toughest thing about Giftmas is holding onto presents until the proper time. i'm reasonably good at sneaking and plotting, but my enthusiasm screws me up. "item X is awesome! i want C to have it Right Now!" i gave him a present back in October because i couldn't stand to know that i had it and he couldn't use it. (a Sansa Rhapsody, glad i got it then since it looks like all the 8GB ones are gone now, for which he periodically continues to thank me. he uses it every day. score!)

is it creepy that i get an ego boost from seeing stuff i chose greeted with enthusiasm? (and a little sadness if i miss, or don't hit hard enough...last year's bottle of Tokaj is still untouched in the back of the fridge.)

Dessert wines can be difficult. I've been wanting to open one of our bottles of Vin Santo from Italy since last New Years, but we just have never had a large enough appreciative gathering to enjoy it while it's just-opened and still good.

Last night we finally opened a bottle of port that pedantka brought us in. . . spring of 2005 or 2006?
