Oof, this first full week back after the holidays was a DOOZY.  I failed at my “dry during the week” January, and mistakenly told my chiropractor, “Congratulations on your pregnancy!”  For the record, she is pregnant, but she’s not telling people yet.  Whatevs, if you’re showing, you’re showing.

Anyway, here is what I’m buying/eating/reading this week:

Forbes listed The Azores as the Coolest Destination of 2019.  Read all about the Azores, where we stayed, what we did, how we got there, here.

This article from Punch about the wine trend predictions of 2019 validates my love of Bordeaux Blends.

Turns out, there are things that liberals and conservatives agree on.

I’ve been super disappointed with wine subscriptions I’ve joined in the past, so I typically don’t do them anymore.  I have recently found a new wine website (new to me) that will give you 10% off your entire order using the code WELCOME10.

A 192-year-old restaurant just closed.

The smartest person I know runs a website and hosts a few podcasts. I just recorded with him for a new destination. If you are looking to learn about a specific destination, give his podcast a listen

This is interesting.
