Tis' the Season to Toast
Whether you’re heading to a friend’s holiday party or sending a gift to a colleague, a bottle of delicious local wine is a gift people love to receive. This year, the Chaddsford Tasting Room in Peddler’s Village is taking wine gifts to the next left, making it even easier to find a special gift. Pennsylvania’s Chaddford Winery is among a handful of wineries in the eastern United States who have achieved a national reputation for producing premium wines of world-class stature, and their Bucks County location in Lahaska makes it easy for all of us to take advantage!
One thing that I love about Chaddsford is that they make creating a custom private label easy and affordable for anyone, without high minimum order quantities or long turnarounds. (more…)

Pairing Bucks County's Wines with Thanksgiving Dinner
While food may be the star of Thanksgiving Day, an extra special array of drinks can greatly enhance the holiday. In Bucks, we are lucky to be surrounded by a trail of local vineyards with fine, hand-crafted wines. Scattered across the county, you can find just about any type of wine to pair with your meal- dry, sweet, white, red.
Best of all, as Thanksgiving marks the end of the harvest season, it makes perfect sense to mark the occasion with one of Bucks County’s newly released harvest wines. Read more about Harvest Wines and other popular pairing options for Thanksgiving dinner as recommended by local experts. (more…)

We recently chatted with Miss Debbie. Check out our interview with her:

Fall Beauty at KOP Nordstrom’s
People who know me well know I am not exactly a morning person, and I’m a total night owl (totally opposite of my husband, who is out of bed before 6 AM and almost catatonic directly following dinner LOL). But this past Saturday, exception was necessary for the Nordstrom Beauty Fall Cosmetics Trend Show (follow them on Facebook and Twitter). Doors opened at 7AM, so me and my beauty-loving friends Danielle and Lisa (check out Lisa’s beauty and fitness blog) sucked it up in the name of beauty.
