On Champagne

One of my Facebook friends posted this morning that she’s on her way for some wine and sushi. Noting the amusing timing of said posting — eight in the morning on a Sunday — I was reminded of this, one of my favorite quotes about wine, from Lily Bollinger:

I only drink champagne when I’m happy, and when I’m sad. Sometimes I drink it when I’m alone. When I have company, I consider it obligatory. I trifle with it if I am not hungry and drink it when I am. Otherwise I never touch it – unless I’m thirsty.

I love that quote!
