What's The Wino Drinking? Momokawa Pearl

Eighteen percent alcohol, boozers, so consider yourselves warned. Momokawa Pearl unfiltered sake tastes like a piƱa colada without the sickly sweetness. It's rich and tropical, and it's rice wine. Kanpai!

The Wino Thinks You Should Stop And Buy Some Wine

Boozers, yesterday's weather was a tease. It was a clear, sunny, 60-degree day. It felt like spring. The Wino went for a run around Greenlake and optimistically washed her car (ha!). Today's weather, on the other hand, is an excruciating reminder that it's still winter. In short, it's rainy and cold as shit. The upside? There's wine. And super-fantastic places to shop for wine. For example, there's Esquin and The Wino just happens to be in the neighborhood...
Waiting at a red light.. Behold, Esquin!

Magical Mince Pies

Boozers, even when a mice pie is not very good, it's still pretty darn good.

The Wino tried making her own in December and has failed to post about it until now. Here they are in all of their improvised glory (please forgive the medicore photo). The Wino had neither the baking equipment nor the skill to do a proper job but they ended up turning out OK. The Wino swears that all of her friends said they were delicious.
