Wine. Fun. And More Wine.

Man, we had fun this weekend.  Fancy Meatloaf, Wine, Mexican Food, Wine, Patio Dining, Wine, Shopping, Wine, Pancakes, Wine, Twilight Movie, Wine, Gay Gas Station Employees, Wine, Cackling Laughter, Wine Tasting, Wine, New Friends, Wine, More Laughter.


We made all kinds of new friends....

This is us at the movie theatre... see how I'm smiling?  Yeah, the movie hadn't started yet.  This picture was taken by Casey, a blogger who we met in line, she and her friend were so much fun!
This picture originally had Tattooed Minivan Mom... but she forgot her Darth Vader mask, so she can't be posted.  


This was our "wine guy" at the first vineyard.  Our tour included 5 tastes, we ended up leaving having tried 8...good wine guy.

These ladies (Amy, Tonda and Sharon) even joined us for dinner after the tour was over!



We had some serious fun.

Come on, stop dissing my movie. Can't you just PRETEND you liked it? I read your review before I saw it and then all I could think of was "Edward looks like he's going to puke". But then I got past that and I was good-I was able to focus on the vamp goodness. BAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Oh, your pictures are so much better than mine. And by your pictures, I mean the ones of YOU...because you are incapable of taking a bad shot. Darn you.

But oh, we did have fun. It was worth the sickness...and the craziness that ensued from that...and on and on and on.

I need Rosa's in a big way now. With wine. Oh, but I do...especially after this afternoon.

Man, I want me some Photoshop for Christmas...(along with a class to teach me how to use it).

Maybe someday, when Gabe is in school and I'm not running around like a crazed lunatic, screaming "put that down! don't lick that! can you please not choke the cat?!".

Yeah, and that's all in one afternoon.

Wanna come to Ohio for a visit?

Great pics, great story, glad you had a great time, despite the bit of drama.

Shut up and get out of here!! I haven't had girls fun in like forever!(unless the sparkling grape juice I shared with my girls over veggie burgers counts).

What, you weren't allowed to photo shop a Darth Vader mask on her?

By the way, you look gorgeous!

Hey Tiffany,

It's me Tonda...

I had so much FUN with you, Lula and Heather. The Wine Tour was unforgetable. The entire day was so surreal. We will have to meet up again somewhere and stir up some more fun.

Until next time...

Blogging for Dollars?

Image
My friend, Melissa , recently wrote this post , expressing her frustration with the small circle of bloggers who seem to be getting all the perks. I read it and left a lengthy comment, then realized I had even more to say. So, here it goes. I have been feeling some stress and increasing negativity in bloggyland lately. Unrest among the masses regarding PR, "A List" (whatever that is) Mommy Bloggers, the lack of money in blogging, etc. I've personally considered withdrawing completely and have spoken to a few other bloggers who are also feeling somewhat "disenchanted" with blogging as of late. It seems to have lost its luster. Here is how I see it: You begin blogging for fun. For connections. For camaraderie. You get a few followers and comments. You want more. You begin to see others talking about the free stroller or set of books. You want that too. Then you hear that some are getting to travel, meet with PR firms, speak at conferences. That sounds fun.

My Big News and a $100.

It just dawned on me that I have had some super exciting news that I haven't officially shared! You all know how I feel about the importance of optimism and resiliency in the successes I've had in my life and how important it is to pass those on to my son. Did you know my company is named "Bright Future Managment"? Doesn't get more optimistic than that! A few months ago, I was contacted by a PR firm representing Pepperidge Farm. They were interested in interviewing me for a faculty position for Fishful Thinking , an initiative that offers parents tools for fostering optimism in kids. Now, as the director of one of LA's largest and oldest private summer camps, I get contacted to participate in all kinds of things for kids... usually, I pass, as I want to spend all my free time with my boys. But in this case, the message and the presentation was so incredible, I jumped at the chance and agreed to the interview. Within the first 5 minutes of the interview I wa

OB...No, not another tampon post.

I 'd like to start by proclaiming that I am in madly in love with my husband. In no way does this moment of "gyno-attraction" diminish his hotness and my love for said hotness. Having said that, let's begin. So I feel pretty safe in saying my OB is hotter than your OB. Okay, make that "was", because when we left LA for St. George, I had to leave his glorious, silver, stirrups. But he is worth a post. Trust me on this . Let's start with our first (and only) encounter. It was my 6 week follow up after having The Boy. My regular OB was out of town, so they assigned me to Dr. McHottie. I walked into the room with no idea of what was to come. I got undressed (from the waist down of course) and stuck my feet in the stirrups. Then he walked in. A cross between Jake Gyllenhall and Channing Tatum. In scrubs. G.O.R.G.E.O.U.S. I got all kinds of flustered and the conversation went something like this. McHottie : "Hello Mrs. R." (Cleverly remin
