Women Who Love to Wine

Here it is .. my first published blog. As I embark on this new venture, I promise not to bore you with details about my three beautiful children (Lucas is 7, Lauren is 5 & Logan is 3) or my wonderful husband, Bruce, who I will celebrate 10 years of marriage with this June. Yeah .. It's just not my style to go on and on and on about my passion for fitness or Krispy Kreme Donuts or brag about my great job. By the way, did you know that Krispy Kreme Glazed Donuts are only 200 calories. I know that for a fact because I looked it up on the internet. LOL.

Anyway, the main purpose of my blog will be to bring you consumer information that you can use. I read tons of magazines monthly and come across lots of lifestyle news that I would love to share with everyone. The first installment .. "Women Who Love to Wine." (I do) Wines: 10 for $10 (or less). This list comes from the latest Consumer Reports Magazine ( May 2007) which says you don't have to spend big bucks to get a great tasting wine. Check it out.
