One part opportunity, one part spontaneity, whip vigorously
My sister came to Charleston, for her first time, this weekend to visit and I was so excited to give her the real Charleston experience. That entails drinks on Shem Creek, visist to Sullivan’s Island, the beach, The Battery, Rainbow Row, Broad Street, shrimp and grits and of course pimento cheese. Pimento cheese is a…
When I think of gifts that people receive upon the return of friends and family when they travel I think of the ridiculous shirt that says “When my sister went to Florida all I got was this stupid T-shirt.” It’s weird that I think this because I have never actually seen anyone wearing this shirt….
This wine Wednesday is about drinking with friends. All of my best friends, well most of them, and family live in a different state than I do. Ranging from Colorado to Texas or Ohio to California. Skype has been a great tool for us to us to stay in touch. One of our favorite things…

I went wine shopping at Trader Joe’s for this wine Wednesday and found fadeaway. I found the label depressingly intriguing. I also thought it was funny to drink such a girly labeled wine while watching the Bachelorette; my friends and I are a walking cliche. This fadeaway Pinot Noir was only $8.99 and good. It is…
I love this label for many reasons, one is of course because I am indeed a middle sister. It’s the best of both worlds I am a younger and an older sister. But this label is so great too because it changes for each wine. For each type of wine they have the sisters change…
