Can you keep a secret?

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Laugh out loud funny! I think there's a little bit of Emma Corrigan in all of us.

Wine on Wednesday!

First I would like to apologize for missing the last two weeks. As most of you know...being a mom is very unpredictable and sometimes our babies just won't allow us to blog. With that said, I'm back!

This weeks wine may just be a new favorite for me. This Kirkland Signature has a reserved spot in my wine rack...69% Merlot+ 29% Cabernet+ 2% Cab Franc = 100% Delish! Head to Costco and grab a bottle for yourself.
