Yesterday, I had some friends over for a wine tasting at my house where we explored some wines from Spain. Here's a photo of the wines we sampled (2 whites, 4 reds): A closer look: I really enjoyed this Albariño but didn't care for the Rueda. I liked the Toro better than the Rioja.

Barb Has A Soapbox Moment
I am having a MOMENT. Well, okay, I've BEEN having a few moments and now I must express myself and get this off my chest so that I can go back to obsessing over my own failures, which is what I normally spend my time doing.

TGF Day: A Hippie and a Bear
My Anyas haven't seen a lot of love lately. My friend's daughter wanted to make a card for her friend's birthday, so she came over and I gave her a little tutorial about coloring. She picked Hippie Anya, and I am embarrassed to say that this little cutie had never seen ink. I colored the image alongside my friend's daughter, and the image sat for a few days while I gathered my ideas.
