Good Morning Darlings!
No, I haven’t stopped using my spell check. The cricuts I’m talking about are not the creepy crawly kind, but those swanky little machines that allow you to blow everyone away with your creativity!
You have to see what they can do!

Good Morning Darlings!
When I was asked if I would like to try a new product from Cookie Zen, in which I would pair their cookies with my wine, I said….
Can you guess what I said?

A week or so ago, Eric & I were invited to preview Burger Tap in Virginia Highland (there’s no ‘s’ at the end, folks).
How was it?

Good Morning Darlings!
The lovely people at Ross Dress For Less recently sent me a $25 gift certificate and let me have at it.
And so I did.
What did I get?

Good Morning Darlings!
These ramblings about the other side of the party are about as candid as you will ever see me get here. I am laying it all out for you. And sometimes, it ain’t pretty.
What else could possibly happen?

Good Morning Darlings!
Yesterday we discussed things you shouldn’t be without.
Today, one thing I have to have.
Call it “One of Patti’s Favorite Things”
This.
I need this. Swoozie's are you listening?
I just think this is the greatest thing ever. No drippy ice buckets, just tidy Chardonnay bottles lining the table, all corked with assorted Corkcicles .
Friends and loved ones, are you reading?
xoxo, Patti
Today blogging to Tim Minchin – White Wine in the SunVIDEO

Good Morning Darlings!
I get a lot of cookbooks. I love cookbooks. It is time to review all those cookbooks recently sent to me.
Do you love cookbooks, too?
