In Sonoma County. Yes, I have been back from my first trip for Project Y-ine for a week now, but this past week has been filled with meetings, Congresswoman Woolsey fun and showing Ashley Routson (aka @TheBeerWench aka my@ProjectYine partner in crime) around wine country. We visited Russian River Brewing Company, Michel-Schlumberger, Bella Winery, St. Supery, [...]

It really has been far too long since I have written anything here, and that is actually one of the things I tell clients NOT to do. It is worse to have an abandoned blog then to have no blog at all…. People expect me to entertain them once a week, you know, other than [...]
