A Guide To Wine Bottle Racks
Wine has been part of my family since I can remember. I first got into small wine racks produced for appreciating and storing wine at my grandmother's.
My grandmother owns a modest vineyard and makes wine every year. One of my big joys I recall was, tasting her freshly made wine while helping with bottling and storing it in the wine bottle racks in her summer kitchen.
It is there that I learned the importance of wine racks if you want to preserve wine the right way.
Year after year, as my knowledge got deeper, I appreciated wine more and more.
Growing up, I developed a real passion for wine; I went to study it to understand its complexity and mystique.
As you can imagine, one of the first things I got when I moved in my own house was some small wine racks to start my very own collection.
Even though I started small, as I was living in an apartment, and therefore couldn't maintain a wine cellar, it was a start.
Day after day my collection keeps growing as does my knowledge and appreciation for all things wine.
Wine bottle racks not only give a tone of sophistication in my house now; they add to its warmth and to my personality.
My current wine bottle racks are made of wood and hold about 50 bottles, but, the way it is created, I can add to it by simply placing another layer on top....these are stackable wooden wine racks that allow your collection to grow over time.
Recently I traveled to Spain, France and Italy. The wine countries of the world. I have added a significant amount to my small wine racks to my collection and enjoyed every moment of it.
In France, every house has wine bottle racks; it is simply a tradition with them.
Each evening after diner one retires with a glass of wine and a few slices of cheese in front of the television or with a book. There, everyone collects wine in one form or another -- small wine racks or large wine bottle racks; every house prides itself with one. Of course, many houses have the cellars; maybe one day I will have a wine cellar too.
However, for now I am happy with my growing wine collection.
Enjoy a glass of wine everyday. And always remember to store it right, in wine bottle racks.
Cheers!

Fat self-acceptance: Noble cause, or flawed rationalization?
Mon, 13 Oct 2008 10:30:55 PDT
“We’re fat! That’s that! Get used to it!” It began with African Americans, and then spread to women of all races, and then to persons with unconventional sexual orientations. Given that historic trend, it shouldn’t be surprising that the next phase in the campaign for equal rights may be fat liberation. There already exists an established, organized, and growing Fat Acceptance Movement (my capitalization) abroad in the land, and it has begun refining its basic philosophy to a few fundamental p
Got a job offer and tried some Waldenbrooks dips.
Mon, 13 Oct 2008 10:05:12 PDT
So first things first, the marshmallow and chocolate dips from Waldenbrooks are crap and this comes from someone who likes the taste of fake sugar. Maybe mine were old or something, but they hadn’t past expiration and tasted really bad. Bummer, they could have been really good, but I guess a food that is calorie and carb free has to make some compromises. Unfortuntately, they are inedible. I think I may be drinking too much diet Dr. Pepper since I got a headache and felt nauseous yesterday and

I have finally come to terms with my weight gain. I have steadily been gaining back weight I already had worked super hard to lose since June. A total of 19 pounds back. Ouch! That is not definitely not the direction I want to be heading. I have faced my fears, changed the side bar pounds dropped to reflect the reality and in full damage control mode.
