Didn’t I warn you about November?
From photographic heaven straight to the bottomless pit of Hell…assuming that you can replace fire with water. October is my favorite month with its crisp blue skies and gorgeous foliage. Maybe I was enjoying it even more because I knew that Novembore was just around the corner…and boy was I proven right.
While I love snow and don’t really mind cold weather, I need light to survive. Now it’s dark when I leave the lab and I have just learned that we have had only three hours of sunlight in the past 9 days. No wonder my blogging has been lacking, I have been spending the past two weeks curled up in a fetal position.
But today, another creature of the light (sprinkled with savvy marketing) will appear in our local SAQ stores, the Beaujolais nouveau which always shows up on the third Thursday of November. It may not be the best vintage out there but its different and only here for a short time. Just don’t forget to chill your bottle to about 12-14 degrees to better bring out their mild fruity taste.
