Did YOU eat a healthy breakfast this morning?

Brin, that would be each day - somehow I knew you would like that - plant more grapes.

...and tell them to skip the part of blood work that shows your triglyceride level.

I forgot what I told you but my triglycerides were around 40 something I think....so that leaves room for lots of Resveratrol....LOL

Unlike many men, I really like a cheap sweet red wine, Sangria, either Franzia or Carlo Rossi. But unfortunately, red wine will not help me lose weight because when I drink it, I want something to snack on along with it; peanuts, chips & dip, cheese & crackers, or such.:ashamed:

I like Merlot or Burgundy - Carlo Rossi I put about (2)oz of wine with the rest diet cola on Ice.....good stuff Bird...

Bob, I used to buy the Carlo Rossi Burgundy and when I poured a glass, I'd add some 7-Up or Sprite to sweeten it a bit. But then I found out about Sangria and it's already sweetened enough. I don't drink much soda pop, and never found a "diet" cola that I liked; however, I do now keep some Coke Zero on hand. I drink one very infrequently, but when I do, I flavor it with a little Crown Royal.

And that folks is how you start with oatmeal and end up with crown.

OK Bird...I will give Sangria a try...but don't tell Don...just between you an me OK ? I'd just as soon not drink much diet soda...I worry about those artificial sweeteners...

JEEZE, you old farts here are REALLY taking my carefully thought out thread way off topic, and here's what I think: THIS is THE red wine for us...:laughing:

Even my Zeke approves of my choice.

 

[Bird]

I noticed that Vella brand in a liquor store a couple of days ago, but never tried any. It looks like the same box that Franzia wines come in. Franzia has the Fruity Sangria and a Chillable Red among other things.

 

[txdon]

I found a study in which the participants took 150 mg of resveratrol a day - tablet. Red wine has 15mg per liter so good news -
You only have to drink two boxes a day for that heart benefit you are seeking.

Dosage for the cat may vary.:drink:
