Lite Green from the (what?) 99 cent store

I found some nifty little green mesh bags at the 99 cent store. They were in the laundry/household section. For 99 cents you get three of them and they make for the perfect produce bags for when you go shopping at the grocery store. It's lite green.

Save Your Face

Since being unemployed, I haven't had much disposible income to spend on fun 22 or less gadgets and things. Though, I must say, not buying as much makes me really appreciate the things I do buy. Case in point: Neutrogena Age Shield Face spf 55. PERFECT, PERFECT, PERFECT. I have been using it for more than a year and believe you me, it saves your face!

Big House White

An excellent white table wine that has found it's way into my heart via Sue in SC.




From the Big House website:

Big House White is a crisp yet round wine with a floral nose, accentuated by honeysuckle, litchi, and a bit of a tropical fruit cocktail. A virtual potpourri of fruits including cantaloupe, peach, apricot, and litchi. The finish is fairly long with a nice apricot character.

HISTORY
Harvest in the cool of the morning and then it’s off to the big house for those little buggers to get squished before the sun comes up. The juice undergoes a cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks to maximize the fruit characteristics and retain both its trademark acidity and length in the finish.

FOOD PAIRINGS
Grilled Lemon Chicken, Oven Roasted Tilapia, Fresh Basil Tortellini Salad, Sesame Chicken, Parmesan Roasted Asparagus.Visit the Mess Hall (Main Floor) for recipes.

RAVES
“This crisp, fruity, minerally white blends Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier, Marsanne, Malvasia Bianca, Orange Muscat and Muscat Canelli.”(News & Record—Greensboro, NC, June 4, 2008) 83 Points.
“Recommended.” (Wine Spectator, March 30, 2008) “Good Value. Very charming…enticing with notes of jasmine and almond blossom, pear, melon and quince and limestone flourish. Snappy acid jazzes the whole project but allows for a pleasingly silky texture.” (KoeppelonWine.com, August 23, 2007)
“Recommended. This crisp wine has floral notes and an appealing fruitness.” (Food & Wine, April 1, 2008)
“Recommended.” (Times-Tribune, August 22, 2007) April 2008
