Happy St. Paddy’s Day friends. It’s the day that all Americans pretend they are Irish (some unaware that they are indeed, not Irish). Americans host parties, throw parades, lean in to heavy drinking and pretend it’s not something that they do every weekend. Today I will be imbibing in a few tipples myself, though likely
Many of us are posting on various platforms about International Women’s Day this week, and congratulating ourselves for all the contributions that women bring to our lives. LinkedIn in particular is a landmine. Yes. I said landmine. I love that our culture has decided to set aside a Hallmark-esque day to celebrate over 50% of
When unexpected events, situations or people throw you off course, it can be a scary time. Like many people, I have been through my fair share of ups and downs while living an adventurous, tumultuous, and non-traditional life. Today, I come to you after 2 months of fun-employment after being part of the tsunami of

I’m not from Minneapolis so this whole negative degree thing doesn’t actually make sense to me. Thankfully, I am flying out today and
Hi all, Apologies for the long silence. Its as they say – life took over. Here’s my update: – I’ve done a few wine tastings. One was on a yacht, for 45 people, as part of my friend’s new venture, Yachtlegend.com. Check it out and sorry for sailing. – I’ve been doing my day job (it
Countdown to our Valentines Day tasting: T minus 1.5 hours! I’ve finished the fresh olive bread, the artichoke & spinach dip is ready for the oven and the Lemon & Green cake poms are almost ready for their sprinkles! And of course the wine is ready as well: Champagne & Port cocktail to start things
I have an early meeting for my day job this morning so I am up, drinking coffee, blogging and passively watching Daybreak (I do miss the Today show with Katie Couric & Matt Lauer…). Work & life have fully launched into the new year. Already its looking good but I sometimes can’t believe just how
Normally I am not a sherry drinker – I don’t favour the yeasty characters of a fino and the oxidised varieties tend to never quite satisfy. Last night however I plunged head first into passionate love affair with Palo Cortado. During a catch up with one of my dearest friends, whom also happens to be
