flexing for fall
Normally by this time of the year I’m settling into a nice groove of light reds. But this fall we’ve seen a wild swing of temperatures, with some days a crisp 50 and other days hitting 80 (even in the end of October). And it always seems to be raining too. So, I’ve been reaching for almost every type of wine—all styles, and from all over the world too.  Rosé • Alma Negra Brut Nature Rosé:…

I’ve made the very, very grave mistake of thinking too much about Anne’s “tax of quick alarm” in the final chapter of Persuasion, and about how much Jane Austen didn’t know about what would happen next in England’s naval history. I am, of course, infinitely glad that Anne and Wentworth would not, in fact, have had to deal with too much more open conflict. Granted, if they live as long as I want them to, Frederick Wentworth’s commentary on the Crimea will be absolutely unprintable, and worse than that if they have a son in the conflict. Dammit. Anyway.
What I was primarily torturing myself with was the alternate history of a longer series of Napoleonic Wars. If Anne’s quick alarm actually is justified... I refuse the idea of either of these two being widowed, first off. Anne would just have to keep being brave, and no one except their closest friends would believe Frederick saying he would never marry again because he said he would never marry and look how that turned out... I refuse that option, is what I’m saying. But on the spectrum of other options: minor injuries are just that, and negligible, a fresh scar to be traced and caressed and no more. A disabling injury I think they would weather: not without difficulty, of course. But Harville is Wentworth’s best friend, and thus he (F.W.) has a very solid idea of the practicalities of such an eventuality, of what may and may not, does and does not alter. And Anne, of course, loves him incandescently and unalterably. The in-between, I think, is the difficult ground.
I do not find it hard to imagine Captain Frederick Wentworth getting the ship and crew for which he holds himself responsible through both an engagement and its aftermath, assessing, investigating, arranging for reports and repairs, and only then turning to the ship’s surgeon for not only a report but for belated assistance. I do not find it hard to imagine the surgeon’s vivid cursing. I do not know at what point the first mate would ask “Can’t we give him enough laudanum to shut him up?” and the surgeon would respond, very wearily, “No.” But it is all very well to be deliriously exhorted that Anne must not worry; they are quite worried enough on their own.
By the time he’s on the quayside again, of course, he’s presentable. But he winces slightly as he picks up Teddy and Hope, and they may be too young to notice, but Anne misses nothing. They all have tea together, as a special treat, and he listens, afterwards, with commendable attention to all the news that his children deem essential for him to learn. Anne joins with the nursery-maid in very firmly shepherding them to bed, in due course, reiterating what a nice day they have had in order to forestall tearful outbreaks. When she returns, of course, he smiles and reaches for her. This is as natural as breathing, and she decides not to question, to give herself over entirely to kissing him on the settee. But when she returns from fetching them each a glass of port, he has fallen asleep, the lines of exhaustion at last undisguised. “Frederick,” says Anne, and her voice trembles. “Hmm?” “You will...” she sets the port down, out of danger... “you will tell me, won’t you?” He knows her too well not to know what she means, reaches up to trace the lines of her face, familiar and longed-for. “I’ll do better than that.” He sits up and, rather carefully, hands her a glass, waits for her to sip from it, to dry her eyes. Then he leans in to kiss her again. “I’ll show you,” he says. “Come up to bed, Anne. Come up to bed.”

So I’ve been influenced into trying CdD wine by Pedro and your good self hehe. I didn’t realise it was available here in the UK! Seems like it’s a supermarket staple. Could you tell me what’s the better variety: Carmenere(which I’ve seen you’ve bought) or Malbec? I’m not usually a wine drinker (more of a spirits one) so don’t know much wine! The last red wine I enjoyed was a Malbec but I don’t know if it’s supposed to be “good” you know 😅😅 Sorry for such a cheeky request! Thank you!
Tumblr media
That’s awesome you are trying something new! Malbec tastes a little more raisiny to me, and the Carmenere is more mild, but they’re pretty similar. I have a bias for Chilean wines so if they have Carmenere, I get that. If no Carmenere, I get Malbec (Argentinean). If neither, I don’t buy it. Cabernet Sauvignon is awful to me 🤢And I can never finish a bottle, it’s too strong in taste for me. So I usually have a glass with my meal and then make kalimotxo with the rest of the bottle. I also decant for at least 30 minutes before I drink it.
Tumblr media
Enjoy experimenting and if all else fails, kalimotxo or sangria that shit! 😅Or bring it to just under boiling with a few cinnamon sticks and drink it warm. Mmmm.

Okay so one of the things I keep struggling w is deciding what to drink when I’m out. Like when I land on beer, I can pick a beer. But like the deciding on beer or wine or cocktails has been really hard. I def prefer following someone’s lead. But I’m gonna be on a trip to family in not too long and they think I can think for myself more and decide, and like please no. There’s gonna prolly be a lot of drinking on the trip, so I want to feel prepared bc I’ve totally cried before when I felt like couldn’t decide and was being told to.
So like following someone’s lead is always the top option. But after that, like when it’s some place more casual my default is beer. I’m thinking maybe cocktails is a good default for the rest? I even have like default cocktails for different things, but the deciding to go w a cocktail is hard. Wine feels like more confusing I think.
