Yikes! Has it really been 3 months since my last post?
There really is no excuse, except I realized that to keep up with the blog I was drinking a ridiculous amount of wine (if that can even be said about drinking wine); the holidays came and went and I didn't find myself pulling out a tasting notebook at parties and I didn't feel like "Excuse me while I judge this wine you just handed to me" and "Oh by the way, do you mind if I snap a quick picture of the bottle?" was appropriate etiquette.
To solve the "wine is the only option to drink because I have a blog to write..." issue at parties, restaurants or simply watching TV at home, I have decided that from time to time I will also post a cocktail review or recipe. Maybe, just maybe, that will solve my lack of posting.
To gear up the new year I will be posting later tonight with a celebrity tie in! Fun! It isn't a rose' but hopefully after tonight's post I will be accepting a rose.
Cheers!

Now more equipped for this blog...in San Francisco!
It's been a while!
I am back and ready to start this blog up in force!
I have relocated to San Francisco aka Northern California, North America's wine mecca, am now engaged and am a thirty something. Now just feels like the right time.
Since moving to SF, I have discovered that I like white wine and that I LOVE sparkling wines. I am still primarily a red drinker but I don't feel bad when I want a nice chilled crisp white.
I hope to post once or twice a week and make winery/vineyard trips and posts at least once a month.
Once a week you can find me doing "pairings" with Jaymee at http://www.eisforeat.blogspot.com. She has a letter per week- my goal is to find a wine beginning with that letter to pair with her recipe or if at a restaurant, finding a wine that we think will complement our mood or feelings that day (of course staying with the letter of the week!)
I am NOT a sommelier and have no aspirations to be one, but rather to just enjoy wine and make recommendations to the best of my ability.
Let's have fun!
