Avondale - Mardi Gras Pub Night

Had a crazy day at work today, managed to staple ma finger.

So, everyone seems to be stressed and low at work, and we've been pushing for a Beach Party. In about 2 weeks we will have a Mardi Gras Pub Night,this will for the residents and also a welcome for our new Administrator.We got to discuss about the drinks that will be served that night.

Some of the names mentioned were Fat Bastard which got a few come agains, but top of the class was a New Zealand wine called Cat's Pee on a Gooseberry Bush.This got a lot of people in stitches then followed by a whole lot of ewwwws.

Mina, being a non- alcohol drinker started wondering what it is that get's a person to pick a bottle of wine.Is it where it hails from , wat foods its goes with, the occasion or the shape of the bottle, the description or the name.

If l drank wine l would surely go for maybe Fat Bastard, and wouldn't settle for the Cat's Pee.Part of the description of Cat's Pee, goes like so, "...warm summer days and cool evenings have produced a wine with very strong gooseberry aromas and gentle hints of cat..."Again based on description I would pass, not so fond of cats, I hate them.

Then we go to the bottle , bottle is an ordinary wine bottle, just green, making the contents look like bile , and that still wouldn't capture ma heart.Looks like the cat that peed on the gooseberry bush was sick.For some reason though l find the name quite fascinating , and maybe that would be a good enuff reason for me to but a bottle.

The most logical reason(s) as to why l would find myself purchasing a bottle would be as a present for someone who enjoys it and/or there is a lil circle that says, "Helping the OSPCA to provide creature comfort.", so my buck will go towards a good cause as well.

At the end of the day, we decided that if indeed it was Cat's Pee , we would be in good business. Okay here goes ma business plan. We would plant some gooseberry bushes on the 3rd floor terrace, and seeing we have 2 residents with cats , put the cats on a strict liquid diet and just call the cats, "Here kitty, kitty!! come and pee on this gooseberry bush", Collect and bottle everything and sell it, and I ma frenz would be in business.
