happy red, white and rosé?! yesterday was the fourth of july, and naturally we celebrated in typical fashion...with wine! i love this time of the year - sweet summertime, relaxing with friends and it's honestly the perfect time for a nice refreshing rosé. i hadn't really been a huge rosé drinker until just recently, especially after understanding …
sunday runday
95 days and counting... i can't believe that we are officially under the 100 day mark until the chicago marathon. the time to train just seems to be flying by so quickly. but thankfully (somehow), i have stayed true to my training plans. that's what i've found to be most important - getting out on …

love & squalor
our latest "the grand tour" wine shipment has taken us from europe back to the good ol' united states. and this time, we are exploring the wines from the beautiful state of oregon. now, i've had a few oregon wines previously, but never really explored too much outside of the pinot noir variety - so …
vacation planning begins…
oh man, it's official...we are fully activated with our hilton grand vacations club membership. to say we are excited is truly one of the biggest understatements of the year. and naturally, being the planner that i am, i've already mapped out a few places that we can travel to this year - all documented within …
