If you are going to watch the SOTU tonight 2 little tips that might help you.

[Botany]

1) After the speech turn off your TV, laptop, radio, or what have you because
you have a brain and you do not need a talking head to tell you what you just heard.

2) As per the Republican response; Who the f*** cares?

BTW if you are around stop by for some Coq au Vin and a glass or two of wine
and if you want we can talk about the speech and not watch any post speech
analysis or we can talk about something that has nothing to do with politics.

Sample Topic: Can you tell a difference between wine with a cork or a screw top?

[LawDeeDah]

12. thanks. yum. Never tried this so wanted your advice.

[Botany]

19. it is even better after a day if you let it sit .......

..... and then reheat it ..... not too hot. A crusty french or sourdough bread
to slop up the juices and stuff helps.

BTW split the chicken legs from the thighs

[cyberswede]

3. Good advice

This Iowan has no plans to listen to Ernst. I've decided I'm going to go her whole term without seeing her or ever hearing her speak.

What kind of vin is best in Coq Au Vin?

[Botany]

8. The recipe .....

said to use a burgundy by my local wine guy set me up with a nice french
pinot noir for cooking at $9.00.

The dish took the whole bottle so I had to buy some "extra."

13. Alternative recipe:

Pick up bucket of chicken at Popeye's. Serve with box of wine.

4. I've checked my wine box three times and I still can't find the cork or screw top

I think it's defective.

6. The screw threads are under the little knob.

Righty tighty, lefty filly the glass. Repeat as needed.

11. My Republican friend thought you meant "whine" so he is tuning in for the 5 rebuttals

[elias49]

16. Would he like some cheese with that whine?

[world wide wally]

17. Probably!

He is a total cheeses freak

[brooklynite]

15. In other words, never turn on MSNBC again...

Why listen to people rehash policy positions you already agree on?

[Ykcutnek]

18. For those who already don't like it:

Thank the man for at least giving you insurance to have that stick removed.
