Midwest Wine Club moves to facebook!

Hi everyone!

We've created a facebook group for those of us in the Windy City just to make it easier to communicate about our wine club events. Google Groups does not seem to be very compatible with people checking mail on a Blackberry. And everyone pretty much uses facebook, right? Someone came up with this great idea last night at our October wine club meeting which was hosted by Jen, sort of last minute. So click on the title of this and it will take you to the facebook link.

Thanks to Jen for hosting! Your chicken, cream cheese, BBQ, cheese dip was awesome. We didn't really have a theme, so we ended up with an interesting mix. We had a bottle of Bar Harbor, Maine's finest red, a couple other reds, a Chardonnay that tasted sort of like apple juice, and a rose that sort of tasted like a port. All interesting!

Hope to see some of you on the facebook group!

Cheers!

Midwest (Chicago) October Wine Club

Hi everyone,
Since no one has expressed their desire to host our October excuse-to-hang-out-and-drink, I thought I would propose a host; The Bluebird wine bar at 1749 N. Damen. (also beer and a full bar for those non-wine drinkers, plus I'm sure they can make some fun "virgin" drinks for those of you who can't have booze). Oct. 21st at 7:30 sound ok? If there is another day that week that might work better, let me know. Wednesday might not be a bad idea since it might be less crowded. Please let me know if another day might work best for everyone and I'll repost the date and see who can make it. Don't forget to forward it onto your friends who aren't on the list.
Thanks!
Kristine
