Oenophile...

...a lover of wine
...wine aficionado or connoisseur
...enjoys a fine wine

or in this case..
a swine wine

Thread and ink
Thread...wine glasses and swine wine
Ink...crowned swine
The handsome royal swine is a graphic used by Rex Brand in the 1880’s
to advertise Extract of Beef—go figure!

You can find him, and other great graphics at The Graphic Fairy
Karen knows how to find great graphics!

ps...wait, what?!
This is post 100!
Cheers!

Time flies when you're having fun, doesn't it??? A toast (swine wine, maybe) to celebrate your milestone.
Best,
Susan
