Our New Look

How fast time flies. It seems like only last week, Lisa, Mary Jo and myself set out on our blog writing adventure, but more than a year has passed by since that first posting. In addition to expanding our knowledge of wines, writing this blog has opened up some wonderful opportunities for us to share our passion for wine with others. From Grilling in the Garden to helping with a wine tasting at the annual Karla Smith Foundation auction, to our most recent class on how to host a blind wine tasting party at Fezziwig’s Marketplace, we have thoroughly enjoyed each new adventure. So after reflecting on the direction of our blog, over a nice Pinot Grigio and pizza at Peel Wood Fired Pizza, we decided it was time for a bit of updating. No major changes, just a few tweaks we think will allow us to get information to you in a better format. Here are the changes you will see:
  • We have added a new page that we are excited about sharing. It gives us an opportunity to review wines we have tried and want to recommend to you! Check out the page, “What’s In Your Glass Tonight”, for a new wine review each week. It will include a description, review, and suggestions for pairings. Wines that we have recommended in the past are now listed on the page, “Wines We Found Devine”.
  • Each week you will continue to see our regular blog on wine related topics. Notes from Wine School will continue to be posted as well.
  • As part of our wine education, look for ‘Wine Word of the Week” on our Facebook posting. Just a quick post with words related to wine to broaden your wine vocabulary.
  • Last but not least, time does continue to tick away, and though we don’t feel (or lookWinking smile) any older, we thought it time to update our biographies too. Check out what is new with us, one of us has a new addition soon to arrive!!
For me the best part of this blog experience has been meeting new people who enjoy wine and food while challenging myself in my knowledge of wine. Of course the very best part is spending time with two wonderful ladies who make my life better each and every day!
Cheers,
Beth
