DH and I used to get lunch and grocery shop on Sundays. (Actually, he used to share house chores on Sundays too.) We cut Sunday lunches when we went on a tight budget. And some time last year, he started golfing or "hitting the balls", then complained that we do not both need to go get groceries ... so now, I split my old Sundays into house chores on Sundays and grocery shopping on weekdays ( "less crowded" oh yea, I've fell into that routine, being unemployed.). I also side step the DH complain that he is done, ready to go home, no more stores.

Today, I was generally frustrated and not happy with the job search. I took a break and went grocering, after getting kibbles from generic-strip-mall-pet-store, I went next door to Trader Joe's. Why, yes, I've been going to that pet store for 10+ years but have only managed to stop at TJs a handful of times (see DH's no more stores). I got a few things and then wander over to the wine isles for no good reason. I was just browsing ... then I saw it - Black Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon "Fat Cat". I smiled. I grabbed a bottle ... ah. It has been many life times since I had this wine. I just hope it is as good as I remember it.

So, to honor this reunion, I named the project I started today, with Baruffa Cashwool, in Bordeaux Burgundy color "Fat Cat" (ravelry link).
