What a Wine-er

Adults sometimes like to sit back and relax with an adult beverage of sorts. One of my personal favorites is wine, specifically white zinfandel. I found a cheap bottle at my local Walmart (still getting used to not being in a dry county) and decided to give it a go.



Brand: Oakleaf Vineyards
Type: White Zinfandel
Price: $3 for a bottle that makes about 4-5 glasses.


It's what you would expect of a white zinfandel. Nice pink color, sweet, smells a bit fruity. It is obviously alcoholic but not overpoweringly so. The back of the bottle even recommends a cheese pairing of baked Bree. Definitely a good value for the price and I'm looking forward to trying other wines offered by Oakleaf Vineyards. If you're over the age of 21 with a valid ID to show at time of purchase, I recommend this.

If anyone wants to recommend a wine, or other adult beverage, for me to try, please leave me a comment. Thanks for reading <3

So Legion is Out- Some spoilers after a quick look

World of Warcraft's latest expansion, Legion, is out. You know, in case you didn't hear. I'm not totally sure what to make of it so far. King Varion is dead, King Anduin seems, I don't know, different from Prince Anduin from Warlords. Maybe it's grief? He doesn't seem as much the heroic type as he used to and instead Varion went from jerk to hero in his final moments. Meh, I'm a picky fangirl.

As far as gameplay, they're still doing their balancing act with some of the classes. The paladin health pool issues I've been reading have me a little scared to get my tank into raids. Hopefully they will find a way to address it and avoid class stigma that has happened with various other classes in other expansions. Class stigma is mostly a community issue (huntards, retraderps, ect) and I don't really see that itself going away any time soon. Also, I'm a bit upset at how worthless inscription feels at earlier levels. I switched to alchemy, which feels a bit more lucrative and useful.

Omg, I do have to mention, the quest areas look pretty. Warlords, now this? Good job Blizzard! Also, plenty of 'unique' enemies that give good drops dispersed around every map.

Over all, I like legion. I feel like it is doing a good job making people more social, bringing down market inflation, and getting people more interested in the game by diversifying play styles and giving people plenty to do.

I'll keep everyone posted with little updates on how everything goes.
