I’ve finished my bottle of malbec, had a wonderful “see you soon” dinner which I prepared; complete with Chardonnay Strawberry Cake, and I’m off to Florida tomorrow. I don’t know anything about Florida wines, or even if they make them there, but I plan to find out. Wherever I go, wine seems to find me.

So I’ll be off, staying at my aunt’s home there for two weeks. I’m going with my best friend and I’m really excited, I’ve never had a ‘girls’ vacation. We’ll cook, and explore, and hopefully drink some good wine. My aunt also has no internet at her summer home, so I’ll be cut off from the world (haha) but that will be a nice little vacation in and of itself.

We’re driving down tomorrow and taking it easy for a few days. We’ll go to the coast and Orlando; to St. Augustine and Fort Myers. It’ll be a great time, hopefully I’ll enjoy some great wine or even find a winery or two along the way.

See you all when I come back to real life, to orientations and to grad school!
