Bloggdy Blog Blog

I was surfing the net today and happened upon a few blog sites. 

I felt bad that my last post was about poop but let me tell you, a lot of these bloggers write about the dumbest things. One gal posted more than 2 pages of conversation between her and her girlfriend. After the first page and a half, I skimmed the blog, then gave up entirely. I still have no idea what the hell she was talking about!

Truth be told, it does take a bit of imagination and creativity to come up with something to write about every day. I guess that's why I don't do it as often as I should.

BUT...in the last few weeks so many of you have come into the winery and told me the website is hilarious so I will endeavor (big college word there) to keep you laughing.

And while you are giggling and feeling especially warm and fuzzy about Costa Ventosa, come in and buy wine. That's what pays for the website.

I Got Nuthin...

...I'm sitting here eating my salad, waiting for customers to wander in and I was surfing the net and remembered I have a website, HAHAHAHAHA! Obviously I have neglected it because the last entry was April.

So, let's see...what has happened since then...made wine, bottled wine, sold wine, drank wine...made more wine, bottled more wine, sold more wine, drank more wine...

Oh and bought chickens who now poop all over my back deck.

Thus the title of today's blog: I got nuthin to say. Seriously.

Springy Sprung Spring

Wow, that's a mouthful....

Is there a more gorgeous time of year than the Spring? Don’t get me wrong, my favorite season is Autumn, with all of the bronzes, oranges, reds and yellows. But Spring is just so…fresh…green…happy and cheerful.

And…the Vineyard is waking up! We have little buds on the plants and it’s only a matter of days before “Bud Break” when the leaves pop out and the vine starts producing next year’s grapes. YAY!

We have a few events coming up in the Winery that you should know about:

Woot-Woot!

When I was growing up I thought a Woot-Woot was a creature out of some Dr. Seuss book...KIDDING! Woot-Woot refers to me cheering (along with Go Me Go Me Go Me) cuz we are open again for the season.

Saturday (Feb 9) was our first official day back and the place was packed! I thought for a minute it was a July day with so many folks coming and going, drinking wine and eating cheese and crackers. What fun.

So we're baaaaack. Check out our Events page for stuff coming up...sign up for our newsletter over here -->> and like us on Facebook. Above all, come in and say hello and have a glass of vino with us. Ciao!

A New Year

I took this picture in Italy a few months ago, and it reminds me that the sun is setting on 2012 and getting ready to rise on (or is it in??) 2013...and I wanna sleep in late and have breakfast in bed! Just kidding, what I meant to say is I hope your sunrise in 2013 and beyond is happy, healthy, and filled with lotsa wine.

We re-open the second weekend in February. Stay tuned for our "Reopening Party". xoxoxo
