So I've strangely taken to automatically aerating any beverage that I put in my mouth. I don't seem to be able to help it. And then I realize I'm sitting there pulling air in through my teeth while sipping my coffee, and think I may have truly gone over the edge.
On the upside, doing so does significantly magnify the flavor of just about anything.
Silly wine nerd that I am.
In other wine-related news, my friend Steve has suggested I begin a wine-vidcast. I've got the equipment, and he's got the know how and interest enough to offer hosting and such. Does anyone have any feedback? As he pointed out, I certainly wouldn't be the first - but then, to quote him "Microsoft wasn't the first either." I appreciate any commentary on the subject.
I also just recently received an amazing FREE book from the Spanish government, outlining many of Spain's best wines and the regions they come from. It's a hundred pages or so of high quality, glossy color photos and text. Here's the link to order your own: http://www.winesfromspainusa.com/WFSUSA/Guide/WineGuide.htm Again, it's 100% free - no shipping cost or anything. A great deal.
Santé!

When I find times of trouble, mother Mary comes to me. Speaking words aeration, let it breathe.
Also, I think the wine vidcast is a fabulous idea. Of course, I'm biased.
i'm not sure coffee stands up to aeriating it -- coffee is best when it's dense haha.

Sometimes I blow on cereal to cool it off. Is that at all similar?
