Thanks to the wonder that is Facebook, I’ve now learned that February 18 is National Wine Drinking Day.

Wining + Dining: Napa Girl’s Trip Part III
We’ve had ourselves a busy weekend so far! Yesterday Bobby and I participated in our first Habitat for Humanity build. Having had no previous experience with construction, I was actually pretty happy with what I was able to contribute! Both me and my Bob the Builder, that is. 😉 It was really cool to learn […]

February Festivities
Hello, February! I’m already feeling the love this month, courtesy of Michaels. I had to stop myself from picking up an Easter-themed door hanging, too. One holiday at a time. Although I will say that the coupons on the Michaels app make it hard to resist (and no, Michaels did not ask me to say […]
Reading Between the Wines: Unwind by Neal Shusterman
One of my goals for 2013 – and, more specifically, for when I moved to Arizona – was to start an in-person book club. In my opinion, chatting about books is the perfect way to get to know someone. You have an instant ice breaker, and you also get to learn something about that person […]
