Wine Bottles

My husband put new insulation at our attic last weekend. We bought 10 rolls at Lowes thinking that it would be enough but it only covered like 20% of our attic arghhh.. That means we still have to  shell out more money to buy  materials in order to   completely insulate  the attic.  Hopefully this can be a tax deductible expense and that our gas bill would be much lower this winter.
Anyhow, as we  climbed in there, we discovered a bunch of wine bottles that the former owner used to use when he was making their home made wine.  Our neighbor told us before that the old Italian man who formerly owned this house used to have a  grape vine  at the backyard and  makes his own wine at the basement.  That explains why there is a big stove at the basement and  big pots and pans.  The former owner left everything to us.
Some of the bottles have Pure Natural Water Company engraved in it  This was a water company in Pittsburgh PA way back then.
My husband said that this would be a nice collection so I washed them and put it in our wine rack.  Hubby even plans to  plant some grapes next year and have  our grapevine there.  Maybe we could learn how to make wine in the future lol.  If that happens, all I need to buy is corks for our wine bottles lol.
This post is a contribution to Boisdale, a renowned fine dining place in London which incorporate both jazz club and  Scottish menus to  suit your taste buds and  love of music.  They also cater private functions so if you have a very important event to host and you are living in London, this place might be the one for ya.
