Subtitled: The Wines of British Columbia Fall Release Edmonton Wine and me, we’re pals going waaaay back. When I saw a Tweet a few weeks ago inviting food biz people to the Discover BC VQA wine tasting event, I thought, “why not?”.

Forget the Tea. Let’s Have Wine!
I have been drinking a lot of tea lately. I took a hiatus from my usual G & T. Mainly because a) the weather has been cool, and G & T is my hot summer day drink, and b) my bottle of gin is empty. Nonetheless, my latest shipment of wine from Opimian has arrived,…
Eat Alberta
What a day. We spent our Saturday at the Eat Alberta conference.

Moleskine Wine Journal

Diner Fare
