Brevity by Dan Thompson for December 27, 2020

Now I know why there was a hair in my wine last time I went there.

i’ll have to mullet that over…

Is this anything like “Hair of the Dog?”

Who knew that one day Joe Dirt would have his own brand of wine?

I have never heard this term before, (sheltered existence) but she is referring to Mulled Wine. From what I have read on this, it appears to be warmed sangria, mixed with apple cider, honey, and sometimes raisins are thrown in. Official Wikipedia definition below:

Mulled wine, also known as spiced wine, is a beverage usually made with red wine along with various mulling spices and sometimes raisins. It is served hot or warm and is alcoholic, although there are non-alcoholic versions of it. It is a traditional drink during winter, especially around Christmas.

I’ll take the hot cider.

We prefer Wassail, another traditional hot drink. 1 quart apple cider (not spiced or sparkling), 1 cup pineapple juice, 5 cloves, 3 cinnamon sticks. Heat on high in crock pot for 3 hours — non alcoholic version but everyone enjoys it.

It’s a bottled blonde.

Seems fishy to me.

Canadian wine.

Ummm thanks, I’ll just have water….ewwww

where is the front door?

Vin Du Tacky

They really should take some time to mull this over.

If I saw hair growing out of the cork of a wine bottle I’d settle for a drink of tap water instead.
