I debated whether to have a year-end recap of my favorite posts from this year. It seemed like a cheap ploy to get away with not actually coming up with new content. And you know I NEVER do shit like that. Snicker.
But then I thought – Time, People, and other publishers get to put together year-end lists. And I kick those hacks’ asses up and down the interwebz. So why shouldn’t I be able to do it?
Oh yeah, their lists are about world events and important people, not their own articles.
Screw it…

Potpourri
My post about pro wrestlers and presidents was completely random and had absolutely nothing to do with food or wine. But it brought back great memories.
And that randomness led to my griping about how other men have ruined shopping for me .

Although it was a very painful, introspective experience, my hipster confession was definitely a life-changer.
*
While that was a life-changer, The Sicilian’s question of “What Three Things aare Always in Your Refrigerator?” was a game-changer.

It was so damn good it got Fresh Pressed.

Happy New Year!
