Thursday's Thingamajig: Govino Wine Glasses

I am going to share a an embarrassing secret with you: Four years ago someone placed a curse on me. I am cursed to break wine glasses.

Don’t believe me? I swear it is true. I do not know whom placed this curse on me but it started at a party on a Dec 30th. I broke by accident a glass at a friend’s place….he still talks about it….a wedding present from a now defunct marriage. Ever since then I break wine glasses to the amount of about 20-30 a year.

I am not kidding. Thank god I have only broken my own since then. I now buy them at the dollar store or Ikea when I am there. My really nice 50$-a-glass glasses I am very careful with (1 has broken only). A couple of times I even broke a glass while I was not even in the room. Once a vibration from knocking the wall outside the kitchen was enough to tip over a glass in the drying rack on the counter and send it into the sink to shatter.

I was so exasperated I went online to hunt for an unbreakable wine glass – one that was not for a 1 time use and disposable AND that looked decent enough to use for everyday dinner…even with close friends as guests.

This search led me to the Govino Wine Glass.
