Splits of Champagne drunk through straws?!?!?

LOL! Haven't you ever seen the creepy pink cans? they come with a (pink!) bendy straw to drink through.

On a more related note: I love bandanas. I use them to keep my hair in check while gardening, as handkerchiefs when I have a sniffle, or need to wipe my hands, I use them as lunch bags (tie the corners together diagonally, and presto!) and I use them to clean my sunglasses.

But save yourself some money, buy them at a local hardware store. They're softer, usually prettier, and always a ton cheaper.

It's better than wine in a can.... When in Rome?

Sipping a split through a pair of bendy straws is pretty down-home festive. Just don't get too slung up.

A split of prosseco is just as delicious. As quoted in teh July issue of Food and Wine "Prosseco is the champagne of the recession."

Bottoms up!

I use bandanas to wrap presents for little kids. A local store sells brightly coloured ones for a buck or so apiece.

drinking champagne through straw is just plain down tacky and tasteless

I kind of really love those plates.
