Tonight we break out the new Kitchen Aid stand mixer to make some dinner rolls to go with a new slow cooker pot roast to fight off the brutal cold while we watch the new TV and listen to the new receiver. I should know that as soon as I start to buy something the economy falls apart. US markets down about 5% today (despite being "closed"). Japan tacking on another 5% lower on top of that as I type... Tomorrow should be wild so tonight we drink wine.The first bottle is a Chilean Carménère. Dark in the glass and nice fruit on the nose. Surprisingly similar to a merlot but without the backbone. This is a simple wine that suited the meal but didn't hold up once the food was done.
