All this talk of yunomi's for tea. I sell mine as discreet wine cups .
I tell people they can start drinking early in the morning and their
neighbours will think they are having a cuppa. You can even put them
in the freezer to to chill them for a nice Pinot Gris. Speaking of
which Hank have you watched Gary Vanderchuck
http://tv.winelibrary.com/. The most recent one has him tasting a
Oregon Pinot Gris saying it will be the wine of the next decade. I
know you like your Pinot-me too!
He is rather a high powered dude. I put one of his motivational talks
on my blog- Do what ya love (no excuses.) For those of you with virgin
ears don't watch it! Also if you're in the blog mood John Britt had an
excellent movie on pottery making in the 30's The Way We Were. If you
think you make lots of pots watch this.
Cheers,
Tony

Tony;

Went to check out Gary's act..... high-powered indeed. I agree with
his assessments. The Eyrie Gris is excellent. The deals on high end
oregon wines continue to unfold. The economy in tatters, high-end
wine is going begging for a change. I have been squirreling away $40
bottles for $12_$18 each. They'll be marvelous in five years.
Question is: Will I ?

Cheers, Hank
