Default Chardonnay

I was doing some digging today.....and came across BIG rods of Chardonnay....seems to me it behaves similar to transparent yellow....and is one of those "reactives" sorts of things but not sure.....anybody remember?

If it's the OLD chardonnay, it will be a light transparent, just like the wine. If it's the new color it will be yellowish. You'll know when you put it in the flame.

What she said! The old ORIGINAL Chard was delicious! Then when I was almost out, I bought some here in the Garage Sale without benefit of a photo. Yup, you guessed it -- it was the nasty "Electric Yellow" version of it!!!

Congrats if it's the old stuff, beautiful!

You mean the old yucky, boring chardonnay? Seriously that stuff is nasty. I'll do you a favor and take it off your hands just because I like you. You won't be able to do a thing with it. It's not reactive and I'm pretty sure it has major compatibility issues. Best just to sell it all to me and pretend you never saw it.

If Paula can't get at them - you might try WTB in the Garage Sale

I am sorry. It is really hard to unpack them. I have several huge bins packed and in storage. They are all labeled "104" and that is it and each one is too heavy for me to lift alone..That was just my personal stuff accumulated over the years. I have not gone through my garage yet where the flamedame stuff lives so if I find more I will list it. Otherwise it will be listed after I move.
