Congratulations to all the Dry January folks! For me at least, since I donā€™t generally drink during the week, Iā€™ve got another 6 days.

I didnā€™t realize it was Feb. For some reason I thought the first was Monday. Will I have a drink? Nah.

Iā€™m an idiotā€¦ I thought it was real.

I thought you meant the Yale link and I was sitting there scratching my head trying to understand the jokeā€¦

Because of the leftovers to store, or because you want another?

Both. I like wine along with a meal consumed at a leisurely pace. I usually find that two glasses are about right. The leftovers are less of an issue, but if I put red in the fridge, I need to remember to take it out to warm up to the mid-fifties. If any wine is getting too old, there is always the vinegar crock.

Heard. I make good use of my vacuum sealing lids. Sometimes it tastes better 2-3 days after, having opened up (cheap wines especially :rofl:). Fortunately for me, I like chilled reds.

We almost always have an open bottle or two of red on the kitchen counter (weā€™re not big red drinkers), and often an open white in the fridge. They either get drunk or used for cooking.

Is it a space issue for you?

Nope. I am in the same place. I also keep dry and sweet vermouth, Marsala, and Sherry in the fridge.

I keep getting locked out from reading this article. Are New Yorker articles normally behind a paywall?

Ugh, sorry, probably so. I may be able to copypasta, but I donā€™t want to go against site rules (copyright etc. that probz doesnā€™t just apply to recipes).

@moderator-team?

Thanks. If worse comes to worse I can find out if my public library has a digital subscription.

Thanks! So far I am enjoying drinking as many fancy drinks as I want and I donā€™t have to worry about the aftereffects the next day :slight_smile: I also promised myself I wouldnā€™t turn into one of those holier-than-thou non drinkers and so far its working.
