My husband and I both enjoy drinking good wines. Last year I even bought him a wine refrigerator for his birthdayto store many of our wines in. We have always enjoyed going to wine tastings as well and experiencing wines from around the country. Since we moved to Texas I have found a local wine shop that sells only Texas made wines. Initially I was skeptical, but I’ve found them to be quite good. I’ve bought several different bottles and have given several bottles as gifts. Last time I was in their shop I even considered joining their wine club.
In a wine club you typically will get a wine of the month and it’s a great way to sample new wines. Anytime you join a club like this you want to make sure you have great customer service dedicated to its club members. It’s fun to get hand picked wines sent to you each month, it can really broaden your appeal towards wines you might not otherwise have tasted. Usually club members will get a discount on additional purchases which is a very nice perk, especially if wine is something you like to give as a gift. We are always giving bottles of wine to friends for birthdays or housewarmings. Of course, in joining a wine club, it needs to be cost effective. You want to know you are getting value for your money. Amazing Wine Club has competitive prices and hundreds of wines to choose from. It is truly a gourmet experience.
Wow! That was different, much more like it was when I grew up and went trick-or-treating! It was fun and my daughter I know had a blast.
In Illinois we were told by the village what time the kids could trick-or-treat. It was always 4:30-7. This was tough because many parents weren’t home from work yet and many homes had nobody there to pass out candy. I understand that they did this for safety for the kids, but it made it a little less fun too.
Here in Texas, there was no guideline, it was just like when I was a kid, when it gets dark you go! It wasn’t quite dark yet, but about 6:30 the little ones came out and got things started. My daughter had two friends over for the evening to go out with her around the neighborhood. They handed out candy to the first few groups and then they headed out themselves. After about an hour she called me to say they were thirsty, so I met up with them and brought them bottles of water. They did another 40 minutes of door to door and then we came back to our house. They’re upstairs now sorting their candy and making trades!
It was fun and I’m glad I bought lots of candy so we didn’t run out!
Don’t you wish you get just leave the grind of work behind? I sort of have. I’ve decided to try to make a living doing something I enjoy instead of working day to day just for a paycheck. I work from home now and it’s so much more relaxing, I can “go slow” in my own backyard. Just give me some Hawaiian shirts and some flip flops and I’m good to go. Of course, a margarita won’t hurt either!
Okay, I know I posted a picture earlier of Plinko in her pumpkin costume, but before my daughter did that, she put a little t-shirt on the dog that said “princess”. It was so funny. It was tight and my husband said it reminded him of one of the half-tops girls used to wear in the 80’s to try to be sexy! We were rolling laughing, not sure the dog was too happy about it though.
I’m finding that the more I scour the internet for shopping, research and other activities, the more likely it becomes that my computer will pick up spyware or adware. I’ve thought about purchasing a spyware software or adware software to combat this problem, but there are so many programs to choose from it’s a bit intimidating for a techno challenged individual like me.
I recently found a site where I was able to read reviews on seven of the best spyware removal systems including a Spyware Doctor Review that will help me choose the best program for my computer. I want to feel safe using my computer and know that my usage isn’t being tracked.
Poor Plinko! My daughter decided last night that Plinko needed a costume. She looked through her enormous collection of Build-a-Bear clothes and found a pumpkin costume. It took her quite a while to get it on the poor dog who was not cooperating. I should’ve had the video camera going on this whole episode. After finally getting the costume on the dog, Plinko ran outside, went nuts, and then stepped into the pool, so the costume was all wet!
