Remembering great musicians

Like many of you, I’ve spent the last evening and much of today listening to one of the most iconic artists that we’ve seen in our time. Prince Rogers Nelson was a visionary and a legend. He has truly inspired many of us through his words, his art forms, and his music.

Rooftop Sippers

Rooftop Sippers

Chillaxing on a rooftop is something that we all love and I’ve officially dusted off my lawn chair and left it out on the roof.

Wine 101

We’ve all had the moment when we enter a wine store, look up at the hundreds of bottles on the shelf and think…wow, I don’t even know where to begin. Well the place to start is by knowing a few terms to help you identify what you like.

Do you like white wine or red wine? Full or medium bodied wines? Oaky or Non-Oaky? Dry or Sweet? This week I’ve decided to explain some terms that are often thrown around, but not always explained. While you'll probably know some of these terms and they may seem basic, it’s always helpful to be reminded!
