So I had this really nice riesling* at our annual Christmas Eve dinner and since then, I've been to every liquor store within a five block radius of my apartment (which might not sound very thorough, but that's, like, SEVEN liquor stores) and none of them have had it, nor have any of them been helpful enough to recommend something similar (what is ( Read more... )

That's as good a fanwank as any because it was so ridiculous in an episode where so many EMOTIONAL things were happening.

SO MANY FEELINGS ABOUT AHSOKA.
