A case of the Mondays

Let me start by saying, I appreciate my job. I look forward to doing a good job and I take pride in what I do. Lately I haven’t posted because I’ve been swamped at the office. I manage a rather busy office that handles emergency type services, so we’re busy all of the time. Our [.....

Someone Broke in.

Probably one of the most disturbing things that can happen in the morning, just before going to work, is walking into your garage and realizing that someone broke in during the night — well this is what happened to me this morning. I opened my door and it took me a minute before I realized [.....

Risotto Balls or Arancini? Who cares — they’re GOOD!

On occasion, I’ll visit a local restaurant who has AMAZINGLY, DELICIOUS food, where the wine list is affordable, the appetizers are decadent and unique and their main courses are apparently just as appetizing.  Truth be told, I’ve never made it there for an actual main course – rea...

Wine Treats — #YUM!

In true “Claudia’s going to try wines” style, I went to a friend’s house to celebrate the release of his first published article.  A very good friend of mine brought out some of his wines for us to try, talk about generous because I was there about 4 hours and at that time, g...

It’s the End of Summer

Last week I was struggling with the menu for a wine pairing afternoon that myself and a friend were hosting.  The start of the planning process was a little labored (see last week’s post), but eventually turned into a delicious treat for 6 friends to share.  The following was our menu: We star...
