This past February I attended the Boston Wine Expo. During this event, I met representatives from many vineyards. Although I talked to many, the most memorable vineyard was Saviez Vineyards in Calistoga, California. What makes this vineyard so memorable is its Yogi’s Petite Syrah.
To learn more about Saviez Vineyards and this great wine, read the full post at our food and cooking blog, Tasty Thoughts.

When I go to a bar, I always peruse the drink menu, searching for some new martini that is intriguing to my palate. I will talk with the bartender to learn what he or she considers to be his or her best drink. After some contemplation, I place my drink order.

Given my choices, I would have to say I am most like a martini made with strawberry-infused vodka. Strawberries are grown both in my birth state, California, and my current residence, New Hampshire. The drink is deceiving, as it is lightly sweet but also has the kick of vodka. I, too, have that quality, as to many I appear to be quiet and reserved, yet once you get to know me I can be quite a conversationalist.
So, what sort of martini are you?
