My roommate and I started a tradition awhile back to visit a winery on every vacation we went on and to save a bottle of wine from each of the wineries visited (well, that we liked anyway) as a keepsake of our travels. It started out as a great idea but now it just kind of seems tacky to have a bunch of wine bottles around the house (we probably have 12 - 15). I was thinking of keeping a scrapbook of all the wine labels but I’m not sure how we would peel each of them off without ripping them. I’m also open to any other ideas out there so please let me know. I just don’t want a whole bunch of wine bottles scattered around my house - especially since we plan on keeping with this tradition!

I get boxes of wine sometimes and am friendly enough to offer her a couple glasses. Well, my mom came to take care of me while i was ill last week and bought ME a new box of wine. Since i was on antibiotics i had to wait until i got well to drink. well, we told my roommate she could have some! All was fine when she had a number of glasses of wine one night, then she had her and her friend fill up huge to-go cups of the wine so that she didn’t have to spend as much on drinks at the club that night. That infuriated me, but I didn’t say anything. Now, last night, she had friends over and took it upon herself to use my wine in her cups instead of beer for at least one round. Once again, I did not say anything, as not to start shit in front of her friends. WHAT SHOULD I DO?!!! any opinions?
rebecca w: we told her she could have some (that night) not the entire existence of the wine box?
It just sucks because i did not want to have to share my wine with her from now on. she’s not even 21 and i like knowing i have wine in the fridge, who knows how much of it she drinks.

Usually we hang out on the weekend and party pretty hard, but tomorrow night we’re hanging out and I am cooking him dinner to save money. I also got a bottle of wine. What else can we do? I would offer to stay in and watch a movie, but we did that all day yesterday and my roommate will be home.

I have a wine refrigerator, but it came with no lock. I am looking for the possiblily of finding a separate lock to put on. Any suggestions or ideas? Thanks in advance!
I think I should clarify. There are no children involved, although the expression concern is nice to hear/know. I am moving in with a roommate, and want to be sure my wine is locked up and secure while I am away or gone from home. The lock is merely to keep out theft.
