Sometimes you just never know.

Sometimes we can spend all our life looking for something. At times we may know exactly what we are looking for. Other times we do not realize until it is presented to us. 4 years ago the introduction to football (soccer) was provided. Over the past years I have been cultivating this pasttime. Not in the physical aspect. This girl does not run. All of it has been done in the viewing enjoyment.

Watching sports has not been something that was enjoyed in the past. Maybe it is due to a new maturity on my part or maybe it was the fact of not  knowing which one I liked until it was shown to me. Must say that the adrenalin of  a goal is additive and the disappointment of losing is acute. All in all I love this sport. Now if we can get everyone to stop diving from a simple touch it would be great.

Yet I am still looking for something . . . .

Go Local

Over the course of my life there have been certain drinks that I enjoyed drinking. Anything with tequila has always been a fav. On a recent trip to Prince Edward County a passion for wine was developed. Don't worry tequila I still love you. To finally find some wine to enjoy on its own is rare for me. To be able to walk around one room and taste different local wines is the only way to go.

First stop
Copper Kettle Chocolate Company for some chocolate shots filled with local Ice Wines. Oh my Gods!!

Second stop

Hillier Creek Estates - Chardonnay Estate 2008 and Pinot Noir 2007 full body wines designed for sipping and relaxing.

Over to The county Cider CO. were the best non carbonated Cider is created and labeled Prince Edward County Iced Cider this cider was so good that a 2nd glass was needed.

Best of the best was Huffs Estates Riesling Off Dry 2008 it may have been the 6 glasses of wine before but the 2 bottles enjoyed at home are still as good.

Another trip is needed to beautiful Picton for some more wine tasting and purchasing. The B&B locations by lake Ontario looks like a good place to lay ones head after a day of local wine touring.

Little Things

It always has and always will be the little things that make us happy.

The big things are great don't get me wrong, but the little things. . . . oh . . . those little things that make you tingle are what makes life worth living.

Humble though they be the little things like a smile. Waking up to the musical orchestra of birds. The soft touch of a fuzzy blanket. The smooth taste of cold water. The smell of fragrant flowers. The comforting hug from a friend. The sound of a laugh. The random acts of kindness from strangers. That first sip of coffee in the morning.

Though they can be simple by nature they are also pure pleasure.

What makes you tingle?
