Hi! It's super summery here in Minnesota. Wishing you a warm and adventure-filled weekend!

FRIDAY FAVES - 6.17.22

 

- Have you heard that Airbnb added a "vineyards" category to their accomodations? Time to take that wine country vacation!

- Yes, I DO want to make sheet pan pancakes!

- In the spirit of ice cream season, I re-watched this adorable episode of Gourmet Makes with Claire Saffitz from Bon Appétit.

- Did you know we sell canned wine?! It's so very perfect for summer picnics and beach days! Try this Sangiovese and this rosé from Broc Cellars.

- Let's all make this salad this summer, ok? It would taste great with a glass of this Spanish Garnacha.


Til next time!

Hey there! We're ready for a sunny weekend, how 'bout you? Enjoy this list of fun things we found this week:

FRIDAY FAVES - 6.10.22

 

- Get your travel pants on with this Instagram account documenting one family's life on the road.

- National Rosé Day may be over (yesterday!), but you can still celebrate! Check out these to pinks we are loving right now: the fresh and zesty Ameztoi 'Rubentis' Rosé, the beautifully natural Broc Cellars 'Love' Rosé, and Pratsch Rosé from Austria.

- This is a brilliant packing list for a day at the beach! 

- What a quirky line of vases from Middle Kingdom and Urban Outfitters! This watering can would look great alongside them.

- How cute would your Dad (or you!) look in this 'fit to match his puppy?


Have a great weekend!

Hi! Welcome back! Please enjoy this list of goodies as you roll into a hopefully sunny/relaxing/amazing weekend. 

FRIDAY FAVES - 6.3.22

 

- I made my toddler Jell-O for the first time this week, and it made me wonder about all of the kooky (and kind of delicious looking?) Jell-O based desserts from way back when.

- We beefed up our rosé SHOP section for summer! Get your orders in ASAP, because these pink drinks are going fast (especially the six bottles shown above).

- How to make your life a little more analog.

- Hurray for these three African American trailblazers in the wine world!

- I love this podcast episode about "Disney adults!"


See ya!

Hello! We're looking at a beautiful weekend here in Minnesota, which we desperately need after a rough news week. I hope you're staying well.

FRIDAY FAVES - 5.27.22

 

- Check out what Leslee was sipping on National Wine Day!

- While you're making and dreaming up summer plans, take a look at Ready & Roam's travel guide to Croatia (an AMAZING wine destination).

- Wow, this "maple leaf shaped-house" in Canada is full of gorgeous warm wood and kooky angles.

- Meet Oregon's first black winemaker!

- If you're looking for a light comedy (ahem, rom-com) to cleanse your palate over the weekend, might I suggest Long Shot, starring Charlize Theron and Seth Rogen? (Yes, you read that right.)


Take care!

Hey there! Hope your week was wonderful! We're starting off the weekend with these bits and bobs from around the internet. Enjoy!

FRIDAY FAVES - 5.20.22


- Raw fish lovers, have you heard? "America’s sushi restaurants will need to redefine their practices to survive." Ack!

- I like this article about orange wine in all its iterations.

- A cheerful home tour of an author's book-packed home.

- Do I need this cute little pink speaker to bring to the beach this summer?  Yes. Yes I do.

- Speaking of beach fun, don't forget about the amazing shatterproof Govino wine glasses! Our somm, Leslee, loves them so much she puts them into Cépage gift boxes allllll the time.

- Very excited that there are new seasons of Hacks and Barry on HBO. What are you watching these days?


See you next week!
