Starbucks Serving Wine and Beer?
Published January 27, 2012 | 
The last thing you would be asked at Starbucks is to see your ID,right? Well you might have to do so in the future. It’s been rumored that Starbucks is thinking about adding wine and beer to their menu. Starbucks is very popular especially in the morning hours when people normally get their coffee. While some enjoy their coffee at night also, it’s been said that Starbucks wants to create a better atmosphere for customers who come there at night. I’m not sure if I even like the idea of serving alcohol at Starbucks. Do I really want to relax and drink my coffee next to a group of people possibly having a few too many beers? Somehow this idea doesn’t sound too appealing to me.
Family Guy
Published January 27, 2012 | This guest post from Mickey Garza
What do you think about adult cartoons? Do you think they are hilarious like some of my friends do or do you think they are a bit over the top and silly like I do? I am basically not in the habit of watching any so called adult cartoon with the exception of Family Guy. I am sort of on the fence about this particular one. There are two episodes that stick out in my mind as hilarious. One is where Stewy is standing by his mom’s bed where she is laying down clearly trying to take a nap. Stewy calls for his mom by various names from Mom to mommy to ma over and over again. Finally after a good two minutes of him calling to her she says “WHAT?!” and Stewy says “Hi.” I laughed for about five minutes after that one. The other episode that I love is the cool whip one. Stewy can’t pronounce Cool Whip properly and the dog is trying to teach him how to say it. Check out http://www.directstartv.com/ to find out about getting a package that would include the channel for Family Guy.
Wine Prices In PA Increasing
Published January 27, 2012 |
For all of your wine lovers in Pennsylvania, this is your chance to really prove how much you enjoy that glass of wine. Prices of wine are going to start increasing starting on the first of February. The recession has really taken a tole on everyone, and wine sellers are no exception. Although the increase is going to be minimal, it’s will be enough to notice a difference in the price. Such liquors like champagne are only expected to raise about five dollars, so this news isn’t that bad if your a champagne lover. The other good news is that only some wine brands plan on increasing the price, so just hope your favorite one isn’t part of that
Any Celebration Calls For Champagne Or Wine

Whether it’s at a wedding, graduation, or New Years eve, it seems like champagne or wine is almost the signature drink of any of these events. The most recent event I attended where champagne was a part of, was at my Aunts wedding. The best man made a speech and toasted to the couple with his. The father of the bride then made a speech as well, and toasted with his wine. The thing about champagne and wine is that it’s usually not drank to get out of control with alcohol, but rather to just enjoy the fine taste. When you think of a crazy college party, the last thing you think of them drinking is a glass of wine. It’s nice to have a type of alcohol that is mostly drank for the taste, and not to get out of hand. I’m not a big drinker, but I do indulge in some wine or champagne when the occasion arises.
This past New Years Eve, I remember everyone had a glass of champagne in their hand right before midnight. I personally like champagne on major occasions like New Years Eve. There’s just something about champagne that just makes it major occasion worthy. Aside from how it tastes, it even has an attractive look to it. The bubbles in the glass just look nice in the glass, and in fact many pictures were taken that night with champagne glasses in hand.
So maybe it’s a matter of taste when it comes to champagne or wine. For me, it depends on where I am and what time of the day it is. I can’t see myself drinking champagne at a wedding that’s maybe during the afternoon. But hey, maybe someone’s taste buds wouldn’t mind. No matter which one you prefer. there is something about wine and champagne that just goes hand in hand with a special occasion
Modern Family
Published December 16, 2011 | Posted by Ambrose Mills
I am trying to decide which is better, direct tv vs dish. I am looking at cost and the channels I can get. We actually watch a lot of TV in our home. My little boy is all into superhero shows. He loves Spiderman, Superman, and pretty much any hero with a cape! My husband and I like our fair share of TV also. We tend to get into a show and watch every episode for the season! Our latest show that we have gotten into is Modern Family. I know, it is pretty sad when I will be going throughout my day and remember that it is Wednesday and that Modern Family comes on tonight and it makes me a little happy! The show is hilarious. Every character is so funny. The dad is the most hilarious! He is the classic dad nerd. He is always coming up with these outlandish ideas and using way too much time to try and accomplish it. Through all the humor and silliness, the show also promotes family togetherness and love!
Vineyard Weddings Delight
Published December 10, 2011 | Saying “I do” is, for many people, the most romantic moment of their lives. Whether the nuptials are set against a traditional chapel or a sandy beach, weddings bring people together in special ways. For many, the thought of a church wedding is lovely, but for people seeking destination weddings, it can sometimes seem like the options are limited to beaches.
Most people don’t consider vineyard weddings when plotting a wedding destination. Instead they head to typical (and expensive) beach resorts with a few of their closest friends and family, only to fill their heels with sand and get the bride’s dress dirty. Beach weddings certainly have their appeal, but if you prefer the rolling hills, changing leaves and cool climate, consider heading to a vineyard for YOUR destination wedding.
When choosing a vineyard wedding, several things need to be taken into account. As with any destination wedding, the dress for a vineyard wedding should match the scenery. Vineyard wedding dresses are romantic and simple. Depending on your taste, your dress should reflect (without competing with) the natural beauty of a vineyard wedding.
Another factor for a vineyard wedding is the reception. This stage of the ceremony is practically handled for you, as most vineyards have large restaurants’ or tasting rooms available for rent. Guests can enjoy local wine and take in the scenery while sharing in your special day.
There are infinite wedding ideas when traveling to a vineyard. From the ceremony to the reception and everything in between, vineyards are perfect for celebrating your special day with the ones you love.

Why Not Go On a Picnic?
Published October 21, 2011 | 
The weather is beautiful, the leaves are changing, winter is approaching and you want to escape your routine for a bit (even if it’s only an afternoon.) What can you do? Go on a picnic!
Going on a picnic to a local park for an afternoon is the perfect way to escape the stressors of the office. Bring a friend or loved one, and make it an afternoon of surprises.
Have your friend bring a dish or two, and you do the same. Coordinate as far as the type of dish (main course, side dish, dessert) but leave the other details blank and be surprised when you show up! Try out a recipe you’ve always wanted to try, or one that doesn’t exactly meet the requirements of your rigorous diet and indulge for the afternoon.
Another amazing compliment to your afternoon picnic? This is a no-brainer, I know, but bring a bottle of wine! Your favorite bottle of white wine is the perfect complement to a relaxing and fun afternoon. If you bring your significant other, rather than a friend, candles and a bottle of wine make your relaxing picnic a fun date. Pair your wine and food for optimum enjoyment!
So, after you eat, what do you do? Bring your favorite book, card game, or take a nap if you really want to unwind. Otherwise, just spend some time talking with your friends and loved ones. Sometimes, a much-needed therapy (or just venting) session can relax you more than any bottle of wine can.
When you’re putting time into yourself and your free time, all the other stressors in your life seem to be less significant, and finding the patience to deal with less-than-desirable situations gets easier. Taking a little time for yourself is a must when you’re juggling a busy schedule and trying to stay afloat!
Making my own Halloween scarecrow for my yard
Published October 17, 2011 | Guest post written by Elizabeth Howard
I’ve always been pretty handy. I guess that’s what happens when your dad does carpentry during your spare time and he teaches you a thing or two. But instead of building things like bookshelves, I would much rather prefer doing things like making big scale holiday crafts. I’ve always been a little more crafty than anything. I got the idea to make a big scale scarecrow for Halloween and decided to go all out for it.
I knew that I should at least look up some ideas about how others have made scarecrows like that so I wouldn’t be going into the project blind. While I was looking online for some of those ideas, I ran across some Clear Internet Reviews. I showed them to my husband and we decided to change over our internet service to one of those packages.
I’m so impressed with how well that I did with my Halloween scarecrow! It really is downright spooky! I’m sure it will make some trick or treaters pretty nervous. It really spooked out my babysitter the other night.
Drink Responsibly
Published September 18, 2011 | It is no secret that I love to drink wine. The sheer variety of tastes with their subtle differences that dance across your tongue makes each glass a pleasure to drink. However, I feel that I should take the time to remind everyone to drink responsibly. Always remember that only adults are allowed to drink alcohol because as adults we are expected to be able to moderate our consumption to an appropriate level. There is no greater tragedy for me to hear of, then when a man, because he was intoxicated, puts either himself or others in the hospital. At its core, irresponsible drinking is just an act of immaturity.
But while I am on the subject of hospitals, I have to say that I am pleased to see that more and more medical facilities are improving the hospital uniforms that the staff wears. I know it seems like a trivial point; but bear in mind that for some a stay in the hospital can be a long affair. In that situation would you rather be forced to spend each day interacting with doctors who are forced to wear drab and shapeless uniforms, or those who wear medical nursing scrubs that look like this:
I think we can all agree that it’s no contest. At the end of the day, a better set of quality scrubs will only benefit the patients and the doctors. The doctors will feel better about themselves since they’re not forced to wear unflattering uniforms, which will inevitably result in better patient care. So if you know a hospital that still forces it staff to wear the old ugly scrubs, tell its director to hop on over http://www.blueskyscrubs.com/ and get an upgrade on the uniforms.
