The most fun you can have @ CVS ??!!

Friday night... Nothing much to do, so we decide to stroll down to nearest CVS/Osco drug on the Missouri side of the state line for some Wine Tasting. Yes. Wine tasting in a Pharmacy!!! Here's the link for all you people in KC if you are interested.
I was kind of skeptical when Yeesin mentioned that there was Wine-Tasting in a Pharmacy, but we went in the store anyways. Tucked away in a corner of Osco sat 4 tables worth of wines, with about 4-5 bottles per table, ranging from the regular Cabs, Merlots, Chards, to the more obscure Greek Whites (Yucks, BTW not so good). Bought 2 bottles of Raspberry Sparkeletini which tasted really refreshing!! After about 5-10 glasses of tasting (defensive drinking included : pouring away the ones that you don't like so much), we went on to our next destination of the night...
Westport had an art fair going on that Friday night... Lots of art on display that night for sure, but we were more drawn to the pasar-malam type of cuisine that the local restaurants had by the side of the street! A nice cold ice-cream cone, and starbucks frap later, off we went for some more walking. Stumbled on a free rock concert with the "Zero's" doing covers of 80's music tool! They didn't sound too bad, the crowd digged their music for sure! But maybe its the alchohol they had in their hands had something to do with it ??!!

Wine tasting in a pharmacy? That's a rather interesting concept.
I guess whatever the location lacks in ambience, it makes up for in convenience. You can get wasted in the pharmacy, then drag your your heavy butt to the next aisle for some hangover medicine :P
