Pair Wine According To Your Child’s Bad Behavior
When it comes to mothers there are two things you should never mess with: her children and her wine. These are two of the most important things in a mother's life (sorry, hubbies).
Let's be real here, though, as much as you love them, children can drive you crazy; making the glass of wine you have after a hectic day, the best part of it.
But before you sit down to that glass of wine, choose wisely as there is a science behind the best wine to drink according to different parenting situations. Life As a Rambling Redhead, listed the best wine pairings for these precious stages of parenthood.
1) Riesling with a poopy diaper:
Riesling is refreshing, tends to be sweet and has a low acidity level. You’ve handled enough liquid that smelled of pure acid today..."
Chardonnay has been described as tasting sweet like various melons and has a subtle creaminess."
This wine has been said to have an earthy taste, such as bell peppers or freshly mowed grass. Drinking something that smells of fresh sod will surely help you forget the painful memories of toy trucks being hurled at your face..."
...tonight is not the night to jack around with a dry wine that forces you to drink slowly."
6) Cabernet Sauvignon when bad hygiene sums up your day:
If you find yourself covered in baby vomit, human waste, or toddler boogers, then you need to drink wine that will, for a brief moment, make you feel like royalty."
So the next time your precious offspring does or says something that makes you question why you became a parent in the first place, relax and drink a glass of wine... or three.
