Put Your Wine In Your Pocket (34/366)

Tuesday February 7, 2012

Plug time...

Have you ever had boxed wine?
Well, if you haven't, you should try it.

There are so many brands, you're bound to find one that you love from your local grocer...

Black Box Wines
Franzia
Almaden
Bota Box

...Just to name a few.

There are many advantages to boxed wine too:

*Boxed wine keeps for a month or more, even after it's been opened.
*It's perfect for the glass-a-day drinker
*No more half-consumed bottles hanging out in your fridge

You can buy boxed wines in any flavor - whether you're a white, blush, red or somewhere in between type.

The one thing that boxed wine has always been missing is, well, a way to keep it cool when you're on the go, i.e. camping, tailgating, partying, etc.

Until now.

The Wine Pocket

Available for 5 liter and 3 liter boxed wines, this product is designed specifically to keep your boxed wine cold.  Their website gives greater detail into the product's specifications and unique qualities. Here's a snippet:

"There is an adjustable shoulder strap and an outside pocket with a flap closure to carry keys, napkins, or other items. There is an opening for the spout of your favorite boxed wine to come through. The outside is made of a tough water resistant material that will last for years to come... 

...The Wine PocketTM comes with a non-sweating, re-freezable ice pack that once frozen, can be slipped inside next to beverage box, (be sure to freeze the ice pack as flat as possible, it will be hard afterall). Because this is a soft-sided cooler / tote, it can be rolled into a compact size convenient for storage or travel..."

  

The product is proudly Made In The U.S.A. and boasts a one-of-a-kind design like no other.

Visit their website to find out more about The Wine Pocket and how you can get yours now!  These also make great gifts for the boxed wine enthusiast in your life.

Monday, how I loathe thee... (33/366)

Monday February 6, 2012

I never used to hate Mondays.

Actually, up until about a month ago, it never mattered to me what day of the week it was. 

A day was a day... Unless it was the weekend.  I love the weekends.

Lately, I hate Mondays.  Join the club, right?

I've been getting to bed at a respectable hour on Sunday night.

I don't blog on the weekends because they're so busy.  So, I catch up on them on Monday night usually.  (Hence the fact that this is my 4th published post in just over 2 hours).

Man, Monday morning rolls around and I feel like I have been hit by a Mack truck.

And then run back over with it in reverse.

I've been working out with a buddy on Monday mornings as well.  You'd think that would help kickstart the day.

Nope.

So, I give up.

I give up trying to like Mondays. 

I give up trying to get anything done on Mondays.

Mondays from now on will be my do nothing day.

Ava and I will stay in our jammies all day (except for my morning workout - I'll still accomplish that).

So, as the sun has set on this Monday, I am ever thankful that tomorrow is Tuesday...

NOT Monday.

Costume Persona (32/366)

Sunday February 5, 2012

Today... Super Bowl Sunday.

Go Giants!

Anyway, we went to our usual hangout for the big game.  The adult conversation is always great, and the kids... HAVE. A. BLAST.

This year, the kids decided to put costumes on and parade around the house acting out their new persona.

Hannah was a member of the S.W.A.T. team...

Ava tried one super hero...

And settled for Captain America...

It doesn't get much cuter than that, now does it??
