To all those observing Easter today, I wish you a happy day! I hope you have some good wine to enjoy with your ham, lamb, or whatever it is you choose to make today…perhaps (Easter) rabbit?

Wine in 2010
Posted on January 1, 2010 by Sonadora
Every year around this time I venture over to Good Wine Under $20 to see what Dr. Deb’s wine resolutions for the new year are. In response to her urging I’ve written a post every year outlining the wine goals I have for the coming year. She hasn’t yet posted hers, so I guess I’m [...]

365 Days, 365+ Posts
Posted on December 30, 2009 by Sonadora
Last year around the end of January I looked at the blog and realized I had put up at least one post every day since December 29. I thought to myself that perhaps I could see how long I could go making at least one post a day. I made it through a couple months [...]

Normally I don’t post press releases
Posted on December 3, 2009 by Sonadora
But, I’m making an exception here because I like charitable causes. Thumbprint Cellars (I’ve written about their Chardonnay in the past) is moving their tasting room to downtown Healdsburg at 102 Matheson Street. To celebrate their relocation they are having a party Dec. 11-13 and all tasting room fees collected during that time will be [...]
Wannabe Wino Turns 3!
Posted on November 12, 2009 by Sonadora
1096 days old. 1076 posts in that time. I’m prolific, if nothing else. In the last year I attended the second annual Wine Blogger Conference, made another yearly trek to Northern CA in addition to the conference, and tasted a heck of a lot of wine. I’ve made a lot of friends, for whom I’m [...]

Today is November 11.
Posted on November 11, 2009 by Sonadora
Not November 18. I thought today was WBW. I spent the last 4 hours or so writing my WBW post, posted it, and then realized I was a week early. I have completely and totally lost track of time since I’ve been sick. Today is Veterans’ Day. Go hug your nearest Veteran. I’d hug my [...]

Boo!
Posted on October 31, 2009 by Sonadora
Happy Hallowine all you spooky winos! I tried to take pictures of our pumpkins, but it’s really hard to get lighting right with just a candle glowing! So you get a bonus of me in last year’s costume. Be safe and responsible this Halloween and if anyone gets any chewy sweet tarts, please share with [...]

In Defense of a Fence
Posted on September 29, 2009 by Sonadora
This post has absolutely nothing to do with wine. At all. Other than the fact that it has me completely preoccupied and as a result I’ve been shirking my wine related duties. Sorry to all who need stuff from me right now, hopefully after this morning I will be able to focus on all the [...]

8 years ago
Posted on September 11, 2009 by Sonadora
I worked in NYC 8 years ago. It’s hard for me to believe that it was 8 years ago, it’s stamped vividly on my mind. No wine writing today, just a time to remember all those who didn’t make it home from work that day and their families and friends.
