What do think I am? Some kind of redneck? It was a very nice water glass and I only filled it halfway up.

So I guess one of the kids jelly jar glasses with characters from Charlie Brown on it is probably even worse. There was only a little left in the bottle, I should've just........ nevermind!



Thanks all! From now own it's the fancy wine glasses.


Or Jumping Doris suggestion...

Yeah, go with the two straws. You can rinse them and use them again.

The other said this was all wrong and refused to drink until the real wine cups were drug out of the cabinet where the've been for years gathering dust, washed, dried etc... etc...


So do you have to drink your wine out of a "wine" glass or can you use any old vessel?
I nice crystal wine glass is a must.
Only drink tea or coffee, from a china cup or mug, thats white inside.

Ah, but you should always cook with wine that you'd drink.
