The Art of Wine Tasting
Over the weekend I had plans with an old friend. Actually, my oldest friend to be more precise, as we’re going on 15 years of friendship (quite a bit for a 22-year-old). It all started in 3rd grade when she joined my elementary school, and by some twist of fate we gravitated toward each other, like magnets. We were instantaneous best friends.
And so we remained, all through elementary and middle school. High school and college brought about separation in terms of the schools we went to but we still and always knew we would have a bond that dated back to our 3rd grade days. Sometimes now I think about how different we are, but then I realize that my favorite part about our friendship is how different we have always been.
I learn a lot from Talia (we’ll finally call her by her name). I learn a lot from her every time we have plans. And these days, she teaches me a lot about my relatively newer hobby of food and wine, a realm she has kept up with far longer than I.
So on this particular Saturday, during these particular plans, we went wine tasting.
