When Does the Wine Party End?
Texas, bless its cotton-pickin' heart, has some interesting rules about when you can and can't buy your favorite grape juice. Let's break it down:
- Weekdays (Monday-Friday): You're golden! Grab your wine anytime between 7 AM and midnight. It's like the Wild West, but with better taste.
- Saturdays: The party goes a little later. You can stock up until 1 AM Sunday morning. Just make sure you have a designated driver or plan to Uber, because let's be real, you're probably gonna need one.
- Sundays: Ah, the day of rest. Or is it? In Texas, it's a bit of both. You can start your wine-ing at 10 AM and keep going until midnight. So, technically, you can have a boozy brunch, but don't overdo it before church (if that's your thing).
Liquor Stores: The Sunday Scaries
Now, if you're thinking you can just waltz into a liquor store on Sunday and grab a bottle of your favorite red, think again. Those places are closed tight as a drum on Sundays. So, plan ahead, people!
A Few Tips for the Wine-Wise
- Stock up on Saturdays: If you know you're going to need wine on Sunday, make sure to hit the store on Saturday.
- Explore other options: There are plenty of bars and restaurants that serve wine. Just be prepared to pay a premium.
- Embrace the beer: Texas has a thriving craft beer scene. Why not give it a try?
