It’s no secret, I love wine. I especially love a nice glass of vino after a long day of answering “why?” all day, telling the kids that they can’t spray paint the puppy and making 3 different dinners for 3 boys because they each are so picky it makes my head spin. Yes. Mama loves [...]

I wanted to title this -How to Choose the Perfect Wine… to relax with at the end of the day when the kids are going ballistic and you just need a break and have 5 minutes to use the bathroom without 3 kids and a husband asking where you went the entire time and when [...]

Wait, what?! Yeah, you read that right. So totally not related to anything, but I was at a great event last night with the Mile High Mamas crew. When the girls get together, who knows what we will start talking about. Impotent Monkeys apparently.

My first post about California Wine’s wine of the month club told you all about life as a mom and how a glass of wine can relax me at the end of the day. Well, they just sent me another couple of bottles and this was perfect for entertaining! My friends often times like to [...]

I love wine. That’s no shock to anyone here right?! Well a good friend of my Husband & I makes THE best sangria ever. Hands down. He’s given me his recipe but no matter what I do, it just doesn’t taste the same. So, I’ve decided to just come up with my own. I was [...]

Cheating on the no words again. I suck at the whole “wordless” part. Anywho… If you are a mom and your husband works late or travels a lot, you understand my recent dinner.

I don’t know if I could be called a Wine Enthusiast, but a fan? Definitly! Anyone who knows me knows this wine love is fairly recent. About the time my youngest was born, correction, about the time my youngest developed a hellacious bout of Colic, I turned in my martini and beer glasses for wine [...]

My boys and I love to build gingerbread houses, but if it doesn’t come in a kit with everything for me, it won’t get done. I love kits. Kits for knitting, kits for baking, kid crafty kits, you name it, I probably bought it at Michaels! So here is our Gingerbread House And the cute [...]

Another great recipe from my Dad and Grandma. My favorite thing about this one? It uses wine! Looks, sounds, smells like a 5 star restaurants meal, but it is easy to make and surprisingly kid friendly. Bon Appétit!

Have you heard of them? They had a place in Estes Park and just moved it down to The Orchards in Thornton/Westminster (I-25 & 144th). This place is high class in a super fun and casual setting. I went to the pre-opening with a friend of mine who is good friends with the owner. They [...]
