Lunch at the Royal
penny March 9th, 2007
No pictures. It slipped my mind totally. Sigh. Oh well, but I guess telling the story instead isn’t so bad.
We had a late lunch at the Royal Hotel (La Cucina), which is 2 blocks from the Uni. The food was great and the atmosphere wasn’t so bad. I wish I had taken pictures of the food, the plates were humungous! We had a bottle of red wine, different pasta and meat… (gawsh I can’t even remember what they’re called anymore…)
Anyhow… I realise I’m not cut out doing a post right now… I’m so conked out…
Silly ranting follows.
I love the taste of wine, and I’m always thrilled to find reason to drink it. But unfortunately, I still cannot hold my liquor.
It’s frustrating too because I can’t keep my end of the conversation at all, without feeling sleepy. I have drunk wine several times now but why can’t I ever get used to it? Is it like exercise that you have to do everyday? Then at some point you hit that bump and right after it won’t be as bad?
I just might be genetically predisposed to not get used to it at all. How unlucky.
pen with alcohol is definitely not a good mix.
