If you're new around here you may not know this, but I love Champagne. As in LOVEEEE. I tailgate with it, my cocktail of choice is either a French 75 or a Kir Royale, I drank that and only that at my wedding, I drink it on a Monday night...get it? Got it? Good. The only beer I like is Cider Beer (I wonder why? Maybe because it tastes like champagne) and if a liquor drink tastes anything remotely like the liquor you just put into it, I can't handle it. You vodka and water people are insane, vodka tastes DISGUSTING.
Oh and a disclaimer: I feel as though some people reading this may think that all I do is drink. This just makes me laugh because that is so not even close to being true. I just like to talk about champagne a lot. And apparently I like to take a lot of pictures with it.
This all leads me to the best article I've ever found on the internet.
According to research published in the April 18 issue of Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, Champagne may help protect the brain against injuries incurred during a stroke and other ailments, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases.
So this whole time I've actually been making my brain better. They say you're supposed to drink it "responsibly." That means not driving after you drink it, right? If so, I've been responsibly drinking it this whole time!
Sometimes I might switch it up a bit and drink red wine so I can make my heart stronger. It's all about the health in our house.
Champagne is delicious! What brand do you drink?
ReplyDeleteThose pictures are the best!!
ReplyDeletescrew those people who think you drink all the time, nothing wrong w. a little drinky drink ;-)

haha I am not a champers kind of girl myself, but I do adore me some Malibu Rum or Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka! I think it's written somewhere that Rum and Vodka, but I think the only health benefit for those two is that they make you feel no pain... while drinking them.
ReplyDeleteI hit up the champagne on Friday night. Oh la la I just love it! My favorite is to throw some frozen fruit into a glass in the spring! mmmm
ReplyDeleteHAHA! Going to buy champagne tonight... for our health, duh!
ReplyDeleteWell, next time I feel like champagne and feel guilty about it i'm going to think about this post...it is for my health! Fantastic!!
ReplyDeleteI'm a major champagne lover too! I love wine but champagne is like wine with bubbles which is much better. I love those little splits that come in the cute little bottle.
ReplyDeletebourbon is my go-to buuut I do like champagne for tailgating!!
ReplyDeleteYou are my hero.
ReplyDeleteThey also say pouring a cup of RED WINE into your hot bath is good for your skin.. I'd probably start to drink my bath water in that case ;)
ReplyDeletePS you're the cutest thing I've ever seen & I love your face.
And this is why I love you...we drink to keep our brain and heart healthy. Perfection.
ReplyDeleteI love you.. and Champagne. That's all.
ReplyDeleteGreat, now I have a better reason to start drinking champagne.
ReplyDeleteI told my mom that Ammon and I have to sample lots of Champagne for the wedding. I am taking any excuse to drink wine and champagne right now, and call them all valid. Hence it's Tuesday and Ammon's at class, so I'll be indulging in a mini bottle of rose champagne tonight =)
ReplyDeleteI used to ONLY drink champagne before a night out...it just made me feel extra "fun". Then I started drinking too much and it turned bad. Now I don't mind it now and then but I had to take a loooong break.

Classy with a Kick
Girl there is nothing better than champagne. Champagne by itself, champagne with cran-apple juice, champagne with cran-apple juice and mango orange juice, anything goes!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE champagne too! I didn't realize it had the healthy bennies, plus when you have mimosas all the time it's even better right? I am going to have intake just a bit more now I think :)
ReplyDeleteWhat's your favorite kind? I struggle finding one that I can have more than one glass of without adding orange juice and a splash of cranberry juice...
ReplyDeleteyum! i love champagne too, but wooo it gives me a headache if i drink too much!

ReplyDeleteI love me some champy. Right now I'm loving Lucien Albrecht....
ReplyDeletethis post is golden! i only drink sparkling wines and champagnes and cider beers, so this must mean we just have...refined tastes? yes.
ReplyDeleteVodka is the WORST. Also, my new life goal is to take a picture with several full bottles of champagne in my wedding dress, so thank you for that :)
ReplyDeleteOh I love champagne!!! Yummm now I want a glass.
ReplyDeleteAnd I have to say no mid day football game is complete without some morning mimosas (it makes me feel perfectly okay about pre 10 am drinking!)
