...While the research is not a good enough excuse to go wild on a cheeseboard and down a bottle of wine every night during the festive period, "[we’re] pleasantly surprised”, said Auriel Willette, assistant professor in Food Science and Human Nutrition at Iowa State University, who was involved in the study...

Best news I've had all season. Now I don't have to feel guilty about the round of Brie that threw itself into my shopping basket a few days ago

In that spirit I append one of my fav. Christmas cards (from Two Bad Mice in the UK)

If wine and cheese is good for the brain I should be smarter than I am.

I don't know about cheese but I'm pretty sure the wine just makes you think you are smarter. The next time you get in the wine barrel have someone make a video that you can watch the next day and see how intelligent you were. Larry

With all the covid lies......

But tomorrow morning I'll feel like an idiot...

A good bottle of Rose or maybe Lambrusco and cheese and crackers and small pepperoni slices and stuffed olives (Green) is really good too.
