I’ve seen the light!
Low in alcohol and kilojoules – I guess that’s why it’s called T.J. Light 2005 Low Alcohol. And girls, let me tell you, it’s scrummy-liciously light! With only 8% alcohol it’s great for getting back into bikini shape. Sigh… it’s a constant battle of the blady bulge for us ladies, isn’t it? And especially if we love our wine.
One of my best good friends is getting married in November and I am a bridesmaid… which is all the more reason for me to finally shed those 8 comfort kgs I’ve been dragging around and try not look like a single stuffed olive in my dress (yes – the BM dresses are a lovely olive green – a colour I really love and am determined to look flabless in!)
Anyway back to the wine, the grapes are harvested early before the sugars are high, which is very good – and yet it has a lovely and interesting off-dry fruity-ness about it – like a lazy summer afternoon. Reasonably priced too – got it for R22.50 per bottle at Liquor City. Haven’t shopped around, but post a comment if you’ve seen it cheaper elsewhere. The lower the alcohol, the less weight we want to gain and the less “Randt” we want to pay!
