  • The Would You Rather game… back by request.

    Would you rather magically have the skills of an expert pastry chef OR inherit fifty bottles of old, rare wine?

    1. Scott Says:

      My wife handles the pastry duties, so gimme the wine! Love the Would You Rathers, by the way…

    2. mary Says:

      This is a hard one, but I think it’s because the value of the two choices is not equalivalent. The pastry skills would be great. I’d lean towards the wine, but 50 bottles wouldn’t last long enough. It’d have to be at least 50 fifty cases to equal the pastry skills.

    3. Caroline Says:

      I was sure that someone was going to right away say that they would take the wine and sell it for all the money they could bring in for rare wine. As for me, it would be the pastry skills hands down. I dream of perfect croissants, flakey pies…

    4. Anne, the Whipped Fan Says:

      The wine, no contest. I can afford good pastries, but not rare wine. Plus I don’t have much of a sweet tooth. I’m somewhat known in my circle for ordering another glass of wine instead of dessert.

    5. Stolk Says:

      Bring on the pastry chef skills!

    6. Molly Says:

      Oooh, pastry chef all the way! My sweet tooth would stand for nothing else.

    7. Emily S. Says:

      Absolutely the wine, no question.

    8. Faux Woods Says:

      Bring on the pastry chef! I love to amaze people at dinner parties with special pastry recipes:-))
