jane, who helped me do this photo shoot of mae and mrs. castillo (we always refer to her as carol's granny), told me about this find on today's splash page of msn.com.  the article is about projected new jobs for 2012

champagne dom pérignon, vintage 2000

ha! i'll finally get to pop this baby.

am having friends over for dinner sunday night and we'll get to enjoy this. was also thinking of making mulled wine but maybe i's a bit to much. we'll see.  i just thought maybe it's a good idea because it's supposed to be a pre-christmas meet-up and it's gotten sorta cold and all and it's gonna be outdoor (rooftop of my apartment).  anyway, someone's taking care of food, so i don't have to worry about that.  i announced in the invite that the dom pérignon champagne will be served at exactly 7pm to entice everyone to come on time :)
