It doesn’t get much more convenient than doing a wine tasting at home. There is no driving required. No fancy clothes necessary. Hey, you probably don’t even need to shower (though it is advised!). This past summer, Kevin and I welcomed twin babies into our lives. And okay, we’ll admit…
Paso Robles remains one of our favorite escapes in California — and a Daou wine tasting is about as good as it gets. Paso Robles, while not as famous as Napa and Sonoma, is producing some of California’s top wines. But don’t just take our word, Daou has regularly been…
Over the years, we’ve done our fair share of Arizona road trips. We’ve traveled from Phoenix to Sedona stopping at artsy Arcosanti, an “experimental community.” Though, I’m pretty sure Kevin was convinced we were about to join a cult as we drove past their welcome sign proclaiming we were entering…
One of the things that Kevin and I miss the most since coronavirus hit has been seeing our close friends and family during these socially distancing times. Before all the stay at home orders and travel restrictions, we pretty much did something every night of the week. Shortly after the…

Kevin and I haven’t missed a beat — exploring LA’s many hidden staircases, ordering take-out feasts from fancy-schmancy restaurants like Vespertine and even trekking out to see the bioluminescent waves…
Valle De Guadalupe wineries provide us with our annual zen moment. It’s basically become our annual pilgrimage from Los Angeles every January — the perfect time to visit with smaller crowds and cooler temperatures. We’ve made the trip south of the border for years, and Kevin and I both agree…
Known around the world for its fruit-forward Sauvignon Blanc, the Marlborough is New Zealand’s largest wine region. Any good wine buff could tell you that New Zealand’s Marlborough wine is among the best. And what better way to explore it than by bike? Getting ready to explore New Zealand’s wine country…
It’s easy to forget how spoiled we are in Southern California. I still have flashbacks from my days in Boston — trudging through the snow and (irrationally) imagining that I’d never be warm again! Besides the obvious upgrade in weather, Southern California has a lot of advantages including good wine….
These past 3 days, Kevin and I have pretty much covered the entire state of California — driving first from LA to Sacramento, then hitting up Lassen National Park and Mt. Shasta. We’re nearly in Oregon! It’s the third day of our four-day journey and need to start heading back South….
