How beautiful is this leaf of red chard? Almost too pretty to eat. Nature amazes me every single day. What’s your inspiration this Thursday morning? #naturephotography #eatyourgreens #garden #vegetablegarden #organic #healthyeating
Here’s a winter sunrise, rather than a #SundaySunset. I love how calm the water is, making the clouds look like waves on the horizon. Never get tired of those colors. #floridalife #newday #lifesabeach #naturephotography #takeabreath
It’s #InternationalSherryWeek and I’m tasting this 1965 #PedroXimenez from @toroalbala in D.O. #MontillaMoriles in southern Spain. So, while it’s not technically a Sherry, it is made in much the same way, in the nearby region of Andalusia. It was a special purchase from @lastbottlewines to celebrate my birthday and passing my first DipWSET unit. It’s as delicious as it looks, syrupy and full of dried fruit flavors with a zesty note of curry leaves on top. A nice match with #Livarot cheese from Normandy, France and a fresh red apple. It would also be great poured over vanilla ice cream! #wsetdiploma #winelover #dessertwine. #dinnerforone #Spain
Enjoying some Thursday night football and sipping this cherry-fresh #Barbera from @altipianovineyard in San Diego. Alongside is a capriccioso pizza from @ginalafornarina. #FlyEaglesFly #winestudio #sandiegowine #womeninwine #delivery
