Ever thought much about them? Me neither until we started shipping wine to the US. We are required to ship each order on pallets that are specially treated according to a norm called NIMP15. What? Yeah, that's what I said...
Okay, I know I've been doing my fair share of complaining these days, but it just keeps getting worse!! Saturday we had a big thunderstorm, it rained hard for at least an hour and then continued to rain steadily for...
It's funny, but in some places in the US, Bastille Day is move festively celebrated than it is here! Chez Panisse always has a great fête. This year its menu is based on "new garlic". Well, here in Saint Quentin...
For me, the number of posts on my blog are in direct correlation with my state of mind. If I'm happy, I blog a lot, if things aren't going so well, I tend to want to avoid it all together!...

I never thought I would be so happy to see the sun again. Living here we get our fill of it, I often wish it would rain like it has recently. The only problem is, it lasted a whole MONTH!...
I never thought I would say that! After the last 3 years of drought conditions, when we begged for rain, this spring has been a complete turn-around. We've had rain virtually the whole month of May! This week it rained...
Wow, we had a great trip, but it sure is good to be back. The month of May is my favorite time of year, all the leaves are out and seemingly everything is in bloom. The poppies are my favorite,...
Tomorrow morning at o-dark-thirty we'll be leaving for the Portland Indie Wine Festival! I'm so looking forward to it! We'll be there from Thursday through Sunday soaking up the Portland vibe and enjoying the discovery of new Oregon wine producers!...
Sorry, I think, I'll be saying that a lot in the next few weeks, but I'm under the gun! Last week it was finishing the guide and Molly's wedding, this week, the wedding behind us, it's still the guide, AND...
