Photographs by Lyn Farmer capturing light in the City of Light - evocative imagery of Paris
Light in the City of Lights
What more can one say beyond the single word "Paris"? Sure, poets, songwriters and novelists have all tried to capture the city's mystique in words, wine lovers have brought their pallets to bear and painters have spoken with a different palette, and we photographers make an effort to capture the essence of the City of Light, but in the end, you just go, soak it up and have these little trinkets of memory to remind you that Paris is...well what more can one say?

Let the baking begin - Golden Durum Sesame loaves (thanks Jeffrey at @kingarthurbaking for the recipe!). Next up sourdough Cinnamon rolls, plum pudding, more cookies than I can count (and more than I should eat). Here’s to a tasty holiday season 🌲
The Christmas sharing started early at @floridawineacademy thanks to @clevercorkage pulling a bottle from the archive. Memories are made of this - the best wines are the ones you share with friends. 🎄
Just in time for Thanksgiving, a conversation with a Master of Bubbles, the effervescent Weston Eidson of @westbornwine. He and the Westborn team are making dazzling sparkling wine drawing on exceptional small (and very well known) vineyards in #Sonoma, #Napa and #Mendocino. On the latest Postcards in a Glass (available from your favorite podcast source) he gives us the full picture. It’s a great story about great wine and he’s a lot fun to talk with. Join us, and Cheers!
This is how we get the party started…

If you are going to have 15 wines for breakfast you need a good water to see you through. @acquapanna @acquapannausa
