Wines, Spirits and Malt Beverages: Our Little Shelf
Bebe rarely drinks but that does not mean we do not have a shelf filled with alcoholic beverages. It’s pretty small but it’s enough. Bebe usually receives a bottle or two as gifts. Great deal, eh?
Actually, I have recently fixed our little wine-, spirit- malt beverage shelf only two days before flying to London. Before, the pretty bottles were lying in one of the kitchen cupboards along with bottles of condiments. Because I needed more kitchen space, I had to move the alcoholic beverages somewhere else. I was able to fix an area in the living room for the bottles’ new home. Here it is:
It isn’t that impressive, I know. Bebe and I might visit IKEA one day with mom Lena and Anders to buy new furniture but until then, this is going to be their temporary home. I think the bottles are happy anyway. At least, they have a better looking home and they are on display --- no longer hidden.
I am planning on visiting the wine store downtown to find wines with brilliant designs and labels. Nah. I do not drink but I am thinking of starting a collection of beautiful wine bottles. I will do that later when we have already purchased a new cabinet for the apartment.
Time to wave goodbye! Got a long assignment to finish! Nighty nighty everyone!

I have always enjoyed a good cocktail...though I don't like gin and I never liked Norway's aquavit - though, at the chief engineer's table on one cruise, the two nights he dined with us, he ordered it for the table. I dutifully downed mine and pretended I enjoyed it and, one by one, the others quietly slipped theirs to me. Oh, my gosh, was that ever difficult. I think I drank about five each night!
ReplyDeleteIf you want an absolutely beautiful bottle for your collection and a lovely liquor that is nice to add to vodka or to sip alone after a meal, try the French elderflower liquor. The bottle is so pretty, I never throw one away!
Thank you for dropping by and sharing some love! You're lovely!
