Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers who have lovingly raised their children. Being a mother doesn't mean you have to share blood. You might be a step-mother, a foster mother, or the mother of adopted children. Mother is more a state of mind, & should be respected in all forms.

Today, from 1-4pm, please join me at Victoria Hill Wine in Melrose for a wine tasting. A natural French Rosé (mostly Cab France) and 3 wines from Unico Zelo, a unique Australian winery. The 3 wines include a White, Orange & Red, mostly made with Italian grapes. #wine
