You know, I'm not a big Lucy fan, but the grape stomping episode and the chocolate factory assembly line episode are definitely classics!  Oh, and the one about Vita Vegamina - or something like that.

You mean Vita-meata-vegamin?  Tastes just like candy! 

The chocolate factory one was definitely the best though.

Lo -

Lucy was the famous red-headed American comedien (I think I spelled that wrong) Lucille Ball.

we'll have to send you some DVDs of the episodes we mentioned.  I'm confident you'd find them amusing! You do have DVD's in your part of the world, right?  :D

Oh yes, I think I know about DVDs, those shiny plastic discs people use in their gardens to scare birds off? Those things? They have something to do with TVs? OH?  Gosh, learn something every day here!  :)

My apologies - didn't mean to be a smart a**  ;D

Seriously, if I run across some, I'll send them to you.  Lucy was a comedic icon.

Thanks Lorenzo, for the link to Lucy on UTube.  I haven't really explored Utube very much (there is only so much time in the day for computer surfing, you know!) and didn't know she was on there.  Lucy was great!  Such a talented lady. 

I'm like Lucy, in this clip.  After a bit of wine, I'm usually saying, "Is it hot in here?"  Always brings on a hot flash.  I HATE that!

HI Sue,

Alcohol has that tendency, and I usually go the same way, and 'is it hot in here or is it just me?' is a question i pose many time. These days, no matter how little wine i drink, i get flushed. sigh.

Ok, time to go gardening for my morning routine before work.

Ciao, Lorenzo

Hot wine tip!

Last night, after the de-piccing, Willie and I ventured out for dinner in NYC with a friend and had a spectacular NZ sauvignon blanc - easily one of the very best I've ever had.  Cable Bay, NZ, 2006.  I'm on the hunt for some - will check with our local wine merchant to see if he can order a case.  I think it is around $12-$14 per bottle. 

If anyone else has tried this one, I'd love to hear comments.

Ah yes, New Zealand whites, Sauv Blanc. I really like one we can find sometimes here, it's called Sanctuary. They also make a Pinot Grigio, but I prefer the SB. Don't know the one you mentioned, ahven't seen it here. In general though, so far, I liked the NZ whites!
