Because it’s a GORGEOUS Friday (have the windows open and the furnace off)… I’m sharing the pretty.

This isn’t outside, but it’s the newest member (thank to a dirt cheap eBay auction) of my fountain pen collection.

Oh, and if anyone has any reason to buy me a bottle of wine, ever, this is my new personal favorite… It’s from a local vineyard, Delaney Vineyards. We went to a wedding at their facility, and I had two glasses of it (which for those of you who know me, know what that means…) I also want to try their blush, Texas Rose, at some point as well. And I’m not a wine drinker – or drinker in general. But seriously – this was yummy. Sweet without being TOO sweet.

Sweet Texas Red (NV) — Retail Price: $13.99
