You should go out and enjoy yourselves. You can get a respectable Port for
20-30 USD a bottle, and you only need to drink a couple ounces; it keeps
pretty well. I don't know how much tamari almond chocolate costs, but it's
likely under 5. As my colleague here says, life is good. And I add, if you make
it so.
