Anything memorable or inspiring: The Secret, Winged Migration, Russian Ark, Casablanca, Sideways, Tampopo, Fried Green Tomatoes, Woman on Top, Sideways, Mondovino, whatever catches my eye at the Library.

Hello, Kathleen. Thanks for adding me! I enjoy wine, especially Pinot Noir. I would love to try any wines you suggest from New York, since I was born and raised here. Im sure you know of several which would be wonderful. Thanks again!
Yummy! My fav pairing for a dessert is a Late Harvest Zin or a Port with a semi-sweet or dark chocolate! It's fun to do a chocolate that comes in a jar, place a small amount in cute lil' dishes and serve with cute lil' salt spoons. Take a spoonful of chocolate, then pair it with your fav. port or late harvest zin. It's wonderful! Have fun at your party, and enjoy! What's your fav. pairing for dessert? Give me some new ideas!
Thanks for the friend request, you've been added! I see that you belong to a wine Meetup Group too, cool! Too bad we're on opposite sides of the U.S.! Stop by my page any tme, and let's chat. ttyl, Joyce AKA Wine Diva
In the video you have on this page, you seem to be *talking about* drinking wine. Instead, I'd prefer to see you actually drink it rather than just talk about it!
I didn't realize that Californians, Jack, in particular, discriminated against non-Californians. I guess my short-shorts made me an honorary Californian, cause I scored me 3 Jack heads the day I wore those puppies. Hot!
Pop Quiz. When I walk into Jack in the Box am I there for the a: yummy food, b: the fabulous customer service or c: the Jack antenna ball? Yeah, that would be c! So why the #!@$ did they not have any??? Welcome to So Cal, bitches!
