The day was over and the only thing to do was drink some wine. I say some because this was in fact the third bottle of the afternoon. Having somewhat of a drinking issue, at least Isabella chose the best wine to share amongst friends. All that was left to do was to serve up the baguettes she made earlier with a lovely ripe blue cheese. Oh yeah – life is tough on the Granite Belt.
The restaurant had barely opened its doors (5.45pm) and already Isabella had ordered her entree, main and dessert. Waiting for her wine order she realised that she enjoyed eating at a time best befitting a seniors happy hour. She wondered if there was a happy hour discount. Ha ha – those fools who eat at normal hours had nothing on her ‘eat like an old person’ scheme. And yes, tap water would be fine – another ‘bottled water scam’ averted.
