picnics,
season - summer,
wine wednesdays
being that it is picnic season and all, i just fell in love with this mini version of vermont ice - a locally made (obviously) dessert wine. the pocket sized bottle comes in a cute and protective carrying case, so you can be sure it makes it to the picnic destination in one piece.
vermont ice is the signature varietal from boyden valley winery. it is crafted from the le crescent grape and "maintains a liveliness that is unsurpassed. the unique mountain climate - early november freezes and loamy glacial soil - give vermont ice a higher sugar and alcohol content than most ice wines, as it delivers concentrated flavors of apricot, green apple, and pears." can you say yum!?

i think i just might have to scoot out of work just a few minutes early today, pick up a few mini bottles and head on home to trick someone into a surprise picnic dinner (shh! i don't want mr. frederickson or my boss to know my little plan!) happy summer! XOXO
haha uh oh, busted! Don't worry, your secret is safe with me ;-)
Just wanted to let you know that I love reading your blog. You are a fantastic writer, and you have a way of making Vermont sound like the most wonderful place on earth! I get jealous sometimes, even though MA isn't a bad place to live either!
I am a Massachusetts lover as well - have no fear!
And thanks for the discretion as to my whereabouts yesterday. hehehe.
XOXO
