What might this be, you ask (yeah, the title was a give-away)??? Exactly! Non-alcoholic sparkling wine. Now, before you start wondering what we&#8217;re up to, we&#8217;ve found that there is a time and a place for things like this&#8230;for example; you love wine, wine tasting, food and wine, wine and friends, well you get the idea, but you&#8217;ve just found out that you&#8217;re pregnant and you can&#8217;t drink!<\/p>\n<p>Wait! What? Yes, that&#8217;s right! I&#8217;m pregnant. I&#8217;m not all that far along and some might think we&#8217;re crazy for telling you so early on, but we&#8217;re excited NOW and want to share it! This is our first-ever experience with this kind of thing and we couldn&#8217;t be more ecstatic about it all!<\/p>\n<p>So, in light of being healthy and all that, I&#8217;ve given up drinking alcohol. I thought this might be a difficult thing for me, since I&#8217;ve been enjoying my wine for a VERY (20 years or so, don&#8217;t do the math) long time. I&#8217;ve heard everything from &#8220;I didn&#8217;t drink a drop my entire pregnancy&#8221; to &#8220;It&#8217;s fine to have wine when you NEED it&#8221; to &#8220;I know a mother who drank and smoked all through her pregnancy and her kids were okay!&#8221;. All very interesting arguments, but I figure that this is my one shot at bringing a person into this world and I&#8217;m going to do everything I can to make it my best shot!<\/p>\n<p>Not to ramble on&#8230;but I&#8217;m a pretty healthy girl; I rarely get sick, I&#8217;m not allergic to anything, I can stomach just about anything, my ancestors lived really long lives (some over 100 years old) and I&#8217;m stubborn as a mule. I figure that all these things put together should give the little one a pretty good chance, along with the fact that Hoot&#8217;s got strong genes and an even stronger conviction. So here we go! Off on another adventure&#8230;and we&#8217;re happy that you&#8217;re along for the ride with us!On to more important things, shall we? Yes, the Sparkling! <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jlohr.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">J. Lohr Winery<\/a> makes a whole line of Non-alcoholic wines under the label<a href=\"http:\/\/www.jlohr.com\/wines\/ariel\" target=\"_blank\"> Ariel<\/a>. They&#8217;ve got everything from Sparkling to Chardonnay, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and more! With the Holidays coming up, I thought the Sparkling would be perfect&#8230;and it even tastes good (no, really it does)! Almost like the real thing! I used to wonder why anybody would bother drinking NA wine and now I know one VERY good reason! Pregnancy! A girl just needs a little something fancier than sparkling water in her glass once in a while!<\/p>\n<p>Cheers!<\/p>\n<div class=\"zemanta-pixie\" style=\"margin-top: 10px;height: 15px\"><a class=\"zemanta-pixie-a\" title=\"Enhanced by Zemanta\" href=\"http:\/\/www.zemanta.com\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"zemanta-pixie-img\" style=\"float: right\" alt=\"Enhanced by Zemanta\" src=\"http:\/\/img.zemanta.com\/zemified_a.png?x-id=dde575e4-ee7a-4889-b106-c1ee19467543\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We went on the hunt for something a little different; something new and refreshing, that could be enjoyed by anybody at any time!
