Brenda Pruitt said...: You know, I've always wanted to "like the taste of wine." But I could never acquire the taste. The glasses are so elegant and pretty. People look so sophisticated when they drink it. Oh well. Love the photos!

I suppose wine is an acquired taste but we have much more in common ... like 'big toilets'!; Saturday, October 18, 2008
