So moscatos are just cursed, then?*

So we suddenly need a new corkscrew.

( how we got a bottle of wine open tonight )

I started the process, Veggie was the one who eventually succeeded with the visegrips.

( why the old corkscrew was less than helpful. )

I'm seriously impressed with this, though not sure if I should be impressed by the way my elbow failed to fall off while mauling a corkscrew, or that the corkscrew mauled itself so thoroughly. O.o;


*: You think I'm kidding. The last one we had I ended up knocking the head off and we filtered the wine through two layers of paper towels to get rid of the glass shards. And that was after multiple attempts to work the cork out of the bottle, because the head was a little too wide to wrap the corkscrew around. So never buying that wine again, no matter how tasty it was.
