Wine is nothing to whine about!

I swear, every single time I try to talk myself out of my need to have a nightly glass of wine, a wiser being will give me a reason not to.

We already knew that red wine was loaded with antioxidants and thus, heart-friendly. (An important consideration being what we recently learned about women and heart disease.)

Now, though, I also have learned that wine is a natural exfoliator, and in fact, soaking in a bath of one cup of red wine mixed with water will soften your skin.

So, I will live longer AND be hotter. Best excuse ever to vino post-worko.
