Hi Everyone! This year since I’m coming up on my 4th year birthday of this blog (yes 4TH!!!) I decided to inlist the help of my SUPER talented graphic designer sister in law, Katie, to help redesign my blog. If you love fashion you will love her own blog, www.sketchbookcloset.com.
I’m still amazed at the number of times I hear “Winemakers don’t blog” or “I’d love to see a winemaker blog.” People are always surprised and astounded when I mention that I have one and it has been around for so long. I mean really! Aren’t blogging years kind of like Dog years? If I’ve been blogging for 4 actual years does that equate to 20 years in blogging terms? I’ll have to ask Mr. Joe Roberts of 1 Wine Dude his thoughts next time I chat with him.

ANYWAY… This year I will be including more things beyond the general winemaking stuff including personal recipes like last week’s post and of course more MW study trials and tribulations given that I only have 4 months and 25 days before my last shot at the Practical exam. I might even throw in some gardening tips to use my horticulture degree from way back when! Enough about me though. I still want to hear from you too! Let me know what you want to read about and if you like the new design and layout.

Thanks so much for your continued support and Happy New Year to you and your families!
