What are some good ideas for a wine basket?

My husband and I are celebrating our 1st anniversary next sunday and I want to make like a wine basket to take with us on our trip. Any good suggestions on wine and what else do I put in there besides wine? Any suggestions will be good!|||I prefer a nice red wine like Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot. If it is a white wine, I like Pinot Grigio. You can take cheese, crackers, salami, fruit, wine glasses lol|||Take some fruit, cheese, crackers, glasses....and





Don't forget the corkscrew! A blanket or tablecloth.





A small scrapbook of pictures from your first year together would be a nice surprise for your husband. Write little love notes along with the pictures.





Have fun!|||if ya wanna get specific use water crackers they are lite an wont over power the wine you decide on. If the person isnt a big wine drinker get a sweet white. Alot of people like it. Also cheese that is properly packaged if ya mail it or if it might sit for awhile, that goes for any meat also. If expected to be used quickly, grapes, marinated olives, etc. If ya really like the person a couple good glasses that are designed for the wine in the basket is a good one. Even a joke book is good, it may be the life of the party after a few bottles of wine.|||Anything that comes in a box or a bottle with a screw off cap.





Your husband just wants to get blotto and forget he's married to a woman who thinks wine baskets are good gifts.|||a nice red wine, like la crema pinot noir, ray station merlot, or ridge zinfandel, a baguette (french bread), salami, cheese cubes or slices, strawberries, and favorite snacks. remember to pack glasses, a corkscrew, and napkins, also.|||1st get a good cork screw. New to wine? Try a white Zin, Riesling, Pinot Grigio. Don't forget the wine glasses. You might also take along bottled water to rinse your palette. We go on "Beer and Bologna" trips, too. Baby buds (smaller bottles) and deli sandwiches. If you forget something, there's a wal-mart everywhere. Have fun!|||If you are not big wine drinkers, start with Riesling or white Zinfandel. White Zin is a great starting point, sweet but not too sweet. Cheese, crackers, pretzels, sausage, strawberries, all good, but don't forget chocolate!!!


We have a wine diary where we write little stories on how, where, etc, for each bottle we enjoy.


Happy Anniversary!|||I hope u guys have a blast bring beer.lol and get buzzed lol.be safe|||This may sound stupid because everyone has heard it at least once if their life time, but how about cheese (crackers) "do you want some cheese with that wine?" Funny, Funny.....|||Just take your time . Keep your eye on the ball . Remember to get your foot forward to the pitch of the ball , and do not half hearted with it ! Do not hit the ball stroke it .


Do not be afraid to leave balls outside the off stump and defend . Don't worry if the runs don't come flooding in- play yourself in first !


Good luck !
