The hours are counting down to the weekend and that means a few bottles of my favourite wine will be drunk.

Well if the truth be told, it’s normally a few bottles on a Friday, then a few more on Saturday and unfortunately just the one on Sunday. On a Monday morning I have to be up bright and breezy ready for another busy week at work.

I am still a bit of an amateur when it comes to choosing the right wine and I will admit to sometimes getting it wrong. Occasionally I have been known to serve a white instead of a red.

For Friday’s dinner I was thinking about dishing up a nice cut of steak. To accompany this I think I should be choosing a nice Cabernet Sauvignon. However my predicament is I am an absolute lover of any sort of Shiraz, so perhaps I should get a couple of bottles of this.

This Saturday we have a family celebration and I will be laying on a nice finger buffet at my house. I find that when I host a party at my house my family never seem to bring their own wine with them, so I always end up having to get extra supplies in. Cava is my favourite wine, so I will probably go for this. My dilemma will be should I get Rosado Cava or Reserve Cava, or perhaps, as it’s a big event, I should just get a case of each.

On Sunday night there will be just be the two of us and I think after our weekend of heavy drinking we will just enjoy a nice cup of tea.

I can’t believe it but that is another weekend done and dusted. It will soon be Monday morning again, which means the alarm will be buzzing nice and early ready for another stressful week at work.  Oh roll on Friday.
