Stop Waiting for a Special Day to Do Something- Today is Special
Do you have a very special bottle of wine or Champaign that you have been holding for a long time just waiting for a special occasion that you can drink it to celebrate? Well you have a reason to open that bottle on February 28, 2009 which has been named “Open That Bottle Night”. This date was created for our enjoyment by Dorothy J. Gaiter and John Brecher , Wall Street journal’s wine columnists, who created the date with one goal in mind: Open the bottle of wine that has laid around and gathered dust for years in hopes of a special celebration.Many times when that special moment arrives, it’s too late; The wine has already grown old or even died. I know that this is a fact because our son gave us a bottle of Dom Perion Champaign
and we were so proud of it because he gave it to us; that we held it until all of our children could be together to celebrate a special occasion. When that happened many years later, the Champaign had grown old and died. We had to regretfully throw it out but we did have a big laugh at its wake. I decided that night to drink my fine wine when I want it because every day is a day to celebrate life! So join me on February 28, 2009 and any other day that you choose to drink your fine wine in celebration of life before the bottle dies. Cheers!
