Yup Kirkland Presecco is decent.  We buy that a lot.

Spanish Cava is pretty easy to find around here, and in that same price range of $6-$8.  I tend to like it even better than Italian Prosecco or French Champagne, but I'm good with any of them.

I'm sure I've stated around here before, that my favorite wines are French.  Bordeaux specifically, and more specifically than that, Left Bank, although there are some Right Bank appelations I enjoy as well.  And I also really like some Bourgogne and Cotes du Rhone.

So, a mix of varietals for me, but what comes through more than that for me, is the soil and environment, or if you want to be a snooty French, the terroir. And, of course, the process associated with each appelation, chateau, or mark.

We booked our tour through Tuscan Grape Tours, their office is on south bank of the Arno just east of the Ponte Vecchio. The first place we went was Castello Sonnino. I don't remember where the other two places were, the details got a little hazy as the afternoon went on.

The dinner was at Trattoria Panemonio de case Brogi.
That's the one we were on. We did the signature tour.

The Big Ten Conference is kicking off the football season with the launch of the ‘United As One’ social justice campaign.  ‘United As One’ is among several conference-wide Equality Coalition initiatives dedicated to constructively and collectively recognizing and eliminating racism and hate in our society by creating resources for inclusion, empowerment and accountability.

“All things are possible in the Big Ten when we unite as one,” said Big Ten Commissioner Kevin Warren. “I am humbled and deeply appreciative of how our 14 member institutions have communicated, collaborated and committed to develop a conference-wide campaign focused on creating equality and equity in our society.”

Pizzeria Lola in Minneapolis, the groundbreaking restaurant from James Beard Award winning chef Ann Kim is now selling its pizza in frozen form. Since its inception in 2010, the eatery has been known for its wood-fire charred crust, perfect cheese to sauce ratio and the delight of a pepperoni that curled when it heats up. It has also been so popular that snagging a seat during peak times was difficult. After months of research and development the chef said they perfected the art of getting that perfect pizza to freeze.

There are five varieties available including Hawaiian, old reliable cheese, My-Sharoni, and more. All are available to order online for pick up at the restaurant.

Pizzeria Lola joins other popular, small, local pizza restaurants Mucci’s and Red Wagon in offering frozen, bake-at-home varieties.

I was 16 years old before I tasted my first pizza, true story.  I was 17 when I first had "Mexican".

Pickup only. If she shipped, I'd try it. Looks really good.

My physical therapist asked me the other day if I had ever done a cheerleader (which is a trivial name for a kind of shoulder exercise).

I almost said "not since high school".

I think she would have laughed.
