      Tea? “Camomile” I’m guessing Eric never bought any since the spelling is not even close.

      I think the British have it right by having “afternoon tea”. I remember this while on vacation in Bermuda when we skipped lunch, had afternoon tea with scones and small sandwiches and then a late dinner. Very nice.

      Free shipping! I just placed an order two days ago and it should be delivered to the office tomorrow! Oh well. I need to go order some tea!

      QOTD: What has changed for me wine-wise in the past year? Obviously, WLTV and your informative, funny and exciting reviews. I HAVE to watch every day which is saying something since there are only two or three things I HAVE to do: work, sleep, workout. Other than that, just realizing how much more I need to learn and want to learn about wine.

      Gary: Happy 1st Anniversary! It has been great and “thank you”!

      Cheerio!

      CONGRATULATIONS Gary, Erik, Chris and entire WLTV Team!!

      Truly Amazing accomplishment in one year.

      It’s funny my wine life hasn’t changed much….last year I was involved w/ a Forum from another Wine Video BLOG, and, coincidentally, was providing a SS for them….but I like this team better!!!

      Thanks for the episode Gary. Congrats on reaching 1 year. Amazing really.

      QOTD: Well, I could make a joke about having no money left and no space to store anything ;-)

      But in all seriousness, the change in my wine world can be summed up 3 ways:
      1) I’m drinking a 2004 Domaine La Garrigue Vacqueyras tonight! Me! That’s awesome!
      2) Not only will I be drinking the Vacqueyras, but I’ll be sharing tasting notes with my friends!
      3) In about a month I’ll be going to my 3rd wine tasting dinner in 4 months, with a bunch of great people. How amazing is that?

      Thanks!

      Finally a night off from work at the restaurant, and top 30 in the comments? I’m extatic. AND Gary and I both love tea? AMAZING! Also, thank you Gary for the “Introduce Yourself” link- I’ve already had quite a few welcoming responses. Keep it up, big guy! (and now to watch the rest of the episode for QOTD…

      Wait. Something fishy here. I was comment # 11. Now I’ve been pushed down to # 13. Do WLTV staff get ranking privileges? :)

      I just Googled, and was surprised to read that the UK has over 200 wine producers! Yeah whiskey and ale, but who knew about wine? Maybe something for a future episode?

      QOTD: my wine knowledge has grown ten-fold in the last year. a year ago i couldn’t even name a wine from bordeaux. also, it’s been great being in a wine forum where everyone isn’t a wine snob and it’s about having fun drinking wine. thanks Gary!!

      QOD – What has changed for me in this past year? I am trying more wines that I probably wouldn’t have before. I am trying to do the whole “1 new bottle” a day thing…Workign out well.. I have really expanded my palate…

      QOTD- I have a ton more wines and less money in my checking account- I am on a regular basis drinking wines that are much better in quality and better priced than I ever have before- My wine inventory has diversified in countless ways al thanks to my little Elf GV or shall I say my Little Tea Pot
      “I’m a little teapot
      Short and stout
      Here is my handle
      Here is my spout

      When I get all steamed up
      Hear me shout:
      Tip me over
      and pour me out!”
