I was in meetings most of the week with my business partner Jim Jackson for Wine Country Writers’ Festival 2022. I’ll admit… there was wine and there was whine.
When you’re putting together a Festival for guests, you have to ensure that the “t’s” are crossed and the “i’s” dotted. It ended up being a great half week of visits, drinking, organizing, and planning.

Great wine. Great service. and Great Energy. There was definitely no whining here.
Tell Me What You Put on a Charcuterie…
Meat and cheese are a given. I also like to do nuts and chocolate and maybe even a few pickles. What do you put on your board?

There was no whining here.
The time and energy it takes to put a Festival together is unreal. It’s a lot of work and at one point when we were doing the schedule, a bit of whining absolutely crept up… even though we had glasses of beautiful rose in our glasses….Hmmm…
A Little Whine is Sometimes Necessary.


Whether you take the glass or the bottle of wine is of course, a personal choice.

Red? White? or Rose?
Do you have a favorite? Mine is definitely rose.
In my young, wild days, I drank beer and the wine we drank was like bubbly gasoline…ugh…Anyone else remember the cheap wines of yesteryear. Ugh. Gives me a headache just thinking about it.
I’m still learning to drink wine, but I like it mild and dry. The entire science is huge and I just go with what I like.


I seriously hope you’re having a wonderful Wednesday full of fun and adventure. Remember that it really is okay to whine sometimes. We all do it. But, if you choose to wine, do it responsibility or it ruins it for all involved.
