Edna and Edgar were walking hand in hand down their lane to the mail box enjoying the birds singing and another sunny day in Sonoma when Edna spoke up. “Edgar, do you like red wine or white wine like me?” Edgar thought for a moment, then smiled and replied. “Well, if the white wine is like you I am going to love it. Edna smiled and put her arm around Edgar’s waist as they sauntered upthe hill to their home.
