These are my favorite wine glasses. A dear friend gave them to me. I have a story if you would like to hear. I was working Christmas Eve because that year we didn’t get it off. My fiancé called me and asked me where I was. I told him I was working. He said, “We are all waiting for you.” And I said, “Who is waiting for me? Waiting for me for what?” And he said his family for Christmas Dinner. And I said, “Christmas Dinner is on Christmas.” Ahhh. He neglected to tell me that his family has Christmas Dinner on Christmas Eve. The job I had at the time was one of those jobs where you worked 12 hours in a day at the office and then still took files home to work on. So I grabbed my stack of files and the Christmas gift my friend had given me. I put the gift on top of the files where it promptly slipped off.
When I opened the gift I was so sad to see that the foot of the wine glass had broken off. I told my friend and she was sad too. But for some other occasion she bought me replacements. So I have always loved these glasses. I think we bought two more because we loved them so much, but we only have two . . . so they do break. A well loved/used glass . . . that’s gonna happen.
