The Gods Both Old and New
The older I get the more I realize that religion and spirituality are easier to hold onto when you've been down in the trenches and have made it to the other side. I mean, the whole entire premise of "preaching" is to deliver testimonies and make believers out of non-believers, right? They have to believe that no matter how bad things get, there is a higher power that has a bigger plan for you and will bring you to the other side.

Love in Theory
As I've gotten nice and comfortable in my 30s, I've decided to change the way I give and receive love. I'm a giver. I'm the kind of friend, mother and wife who will bend over backwards for the people I care about. I drop off forgotten lunches and invite friends over for wine when they're going through something. I do the little things that make life easier and more comfortable for those around me. If you know anything about the five love languages, you would be correct in assuming mine is Acts of Service. I've heard that we all show love in the way in which we wish to receive it, which makes sense and it's why I do the things I do.

A Parent's Guide to Wine PairingsTop Story - November 2020
Ask any sommelier, casual wine enthusiast or twenty-two year-old college girl what their favorite wine is and you will get answers that run the gamut from dry to sweet, cheap to expensive, and "more about taste" to "will mess you up after just one glass". Wine is an amazing drink like that, it brings people together. There are some who get paid to swish it around in their mouths and spit it out. There are people who buy wine glasses with quirky sayings about their favorite blush. Then, dear readers, there are parents. Parents don't care about the specifics. Parents don't care about whether its supposed to be cold or room temperature. Just pour. It. In. A. Glass. Or don't. We're flexible.
