Greetings my bubbly loving darlings! It should comes as no surprise that today’s Fizz Friday Finds are all about the same topic of discussion from my post this past Wednesday: Prosecco! If you read my most recent Wine Wednesday Wordologie then you’ve already learned a bit about the fizzy sparkler, so there’s no reason for…
Wine Wednesday Wordologie: “P” is for “Prosecco”
Just coming off of taking my WSET Level 2 course my mind is absolutely buzzing with information. In fact, even though the exam is over and done with, my mind is still is info-processing mode, so random facts and questions are still randomly popping into my mind. Hopefully writing today’s Wine Wednesday Wordologie will serve…
Well Hello, September!
{*Instagram repost} Well hello, September. Let’s sparkle and shine! September is my birthday month, and for me that signifies a rebirth–an opportunity to blow out the candles after making wishes, plans, and dreams for the next 365 days. So, to kick off and commemorate my birthday month {and the beginning of a new season}, I’ve…
Monday Mea Culpa…Well, Sort Of
Soooo…you may have noticed that the posts on the site have been a bit, well, “skimpy” for the last few weeks. A post here…another there…no real sense of normal regularity. In fact, I’m sure some of you have recently come to the site for your regular, weekly, scheduled dose of “fab fizziness” only to end up thinking “Hey…what’s…
Wine Wednesday Wordologie: “P” is for “Prise de Mousse”
Motivation Monday: “I” is for “ideas”
There was a {actually quite moving} commercial by General Electric that aired several months ago about ideas. The premise and content of the commercial, I have to admit, was actually quite moving. I was so impacted by it in fact, that after watching it the very first time it really got me thinking. A lot. If you…
Fizz Friday Finds: Bera Moscato d’Asti
Wine Wednesday Wordologie: “O” is for “Oenothèque”
I have a confession to make: this week’s Word Wednesday Wordologie vocabulary term of effervescence was chosen solely because it’s just such a fun word. A fun, French word. So put on your beret; sweetly purse your lips; and let’s say this week’s word with our worst best French accent: Oenothèque {click here to learn how to say…
Motivation Monday: “H” is for Hustle (But It’s Not What You Think)
You know you’ve heard all these phrases before: “Everyday I’m hustlin’!” “I’ll sleep when I’m dead!” “Grind harder!” “Life is 90% hustle, 10% sleep!” Sorry, but I’m not buying into a single bit of any of that. Don’t get me wrong, I completely subscribe to the ethics and value of working really hard; making sacrifices; blood, sweat,…
Wine Wednesday: My Wine & Spirits Education Trust {WSET} Wine Ed Expedition
Hello there, my dears–time for another edition of Word Wednesday! I’m pushing pause on #Wordologie for just a moment {no worries; it WILL be back!} to share with you what I have been up to in my little wine world lately. It’s no secret that I have a passion for wine. And when you’re serious and/or passionate…
Fizz Friday + Fab Four Round-up
Wine Wednesday Wordologie: “N” is for “Nose”
We’ve all read a wine review or overheard someone talking about wine at one point or another where the “nose” of the wine was mentioned. If you’re wondering if the “nose” of a wine is a real thing or just some pretentious, “wine snob-esque” lingo of little importance, I say this: The nose knows. At…
7 Things You Should Know About Tequila to Celebrate National Tequila Day Right
{Un} Motivation Monday: A Little Honesty About Encouragement
If you’ve been hanging around the site for a while you’re probably familiar with my inspirational #MotivationMonday posts where I write about experiences and realizations in an effort to inspire aspirational action. In other words, I want what I write to get you act, to your benefit. I believe it’s part of my purpose in life to…
Fizz Friday Finds: Bruno Paillard Champagne
Happy Friday, my fizz-loving friends! For this week’s edition of #FizzFriday I’m sharing my latest recommendation for a bubbly I’ve recently discovered that I think you should try. And, as a little twist, I’m going to start dubbing by sparkling wine picks with the hashtag #ThatsSoBubbleista. Snazzy, right? I thought you might like it! Using this hashtag…
Wine Wednesday Wordologie: “M” is for “Mousse”
If you’re like me then one of the things you love most about champagne is its bubbles, which will make today’s Wine Wednesday Wordologie right up your alley. “Mousse” is a tasting term that speaks to the frothiness or how fizzy a sparkling wine seems in the mouth. It’s that delightfully creamy sensation on the…
Wine Wednesday Wordologie: “L” is for “Length”
When drinking wine–especially at a wine tasting–we’re sometimes faced with {what can seem like} indecipherable wine lingo. While I admit that some people can occasionally get a little pretentious with it, the real purpose of wine terminology is ultimately to help the drinker figure out why they do or don’t like a wine–it helps discover preferences….
Fizz Friday: Cuvée Vous Coucher Avec Moi?
I have a confession to make: I’m on the brink of having an illicit affair with a certain type of bubbly. The object of my affection is Pinot-blend cuvées, and if loving it is wrong I don’t wanna be right. What’s a cuvée you ask? In short, a cuvée is a specific-blend base wine created to make champagne. Cuvées can…
Wine Wednesday Wordologie: “J” is for “Jetting”
Okay, first things first: today’s “Term of Effervescence” is NOT about getting on an airplane and jaunting all over the world–although, admittedly, jetting across the globe often involves sipping champagne–but rather pertains to a technological process used in creating champagne. So let’s chat briefly about “jetting.” I got super intrigued by this technique because…
Fizz Friday: American Bubblies–Fourth of July Holiday Edition
The Fourth of July is upon us which means {at least for many of us in the US} hosting–or being invited to–some fun fireworks & food-filled festivities, and whether it’s hotdogs, apple pie, barbecue, or any of those other quintessentially classic 4th of July American foods on the menu, there’s no other beverage that can unilaterally pair with all of them…
