QLC Photo: Champagne

If you asked me when I was 20 if I would ever hide booze later in life, I would say, "Well I do know, but I don't think I will then."  Underage drinking is a game of deception.  Drinking on a budget is too.

Why would I waste this bottle of Korbel at a public event?  Note:  Not Andre.  Was the man checking bags for alcohol really going to stop me?  Me?  This clever and determined girl?  Uh uh I don't play that.  Note: I own Timberland boots.  It's important that everyone savor every last bit of champagne especially when your parents give it to your for free and especially when you want to drink it on the eve of a friend's birthday during an outdoor event.  Note: A culmination of two great wine drinking scenarios.

The bottle of champagne slyly hidden as a hidden treasure for a great investigator, or as my reward for successfully hiding booze in a public garden on the National Mall.
