The Knackered Mothers’ Wine Club Guide to Wine
So, I’m going to write a book, titled as above. It will be about wine but to be able to call it the KMWC Guide to Wine I need to know what you want to know. I’ve got ideas (grapes, countries, labels, food) but if you’ve got something you’d like to see in a wine guide please let me know, either here or at knackeredmother@gmail.com.
Nigella
I’ve been watching Nigellaah cook on telly this evening. I love her. And, I. Want. Her. Kitchen. I have kitchen envy! How did it come to this?
The C Word
I’ve been to a Christmas Fair tonight in the local Stately. I drank warm white wine and discussed cushions. I bought socks and a magnetic dartboard as presents.
Growing (Old) Pains (Me)
I went out on Monday night. It doesn’t happen often so I made the most. I wore an adored emerald green dress (Ghost), nail varnish (Rouge Noir), matching underwear (old vintage Myla) and really high heels.
The Perfect Wine
Here in the cyber-playground, I’ve been tagged by the Merlot-swilling loving Eh, Mummy? and asked to write about my Perfect Man.

In Case Of Emergency Break Glass
Life is too short for lots of things. Stuffing a mushroom, for one (Delia). Too short to be livin’ with stress, for another (Dizzee Rascal).
We're jammin'
You know the score. Please make jam/cakes/whatevah for (insert name here)’s nursery produce sale. Reader, I’ve never made jam. I broke out into a cold sweat.
It's the wine talking..
There has been a lot of talk about wine talk recently. Among wine writers, that is. From what I can gather, they are arguing that one wine drinker’s blackberries are another wine drinker’s raspberries.
What's the big deal?
I had to work last Saturday at a wine fair, leaving bearded husband with the three children from 8 in the morning until 8 at night.
