A peaceful afternoon at Rombauer yesterday. I needed this after such a crazy week. 
And, I am still trying to wrap my head around the proposed changes to education in the US. 
I didn't gain any clarity at Rombauer, but it was nice to let all of those ugly thoughts drift away for a moment. 

wine with friends

Had a nice day in Amador County with friends. Started at Rombauer and stopped by Turley, home of the worst red wines on the planet. 

Came back to the house and dropped $117 to have two, XL pizzas delivered. Totally worth it. 

wine

It’s been a while since I had some wine. No wine since Christmas, as I’ve been trying to cut sugars out of my diet. I didn’t do “dry January” or cut out alcohol altogether. Instead, I’ve moderated my alcohol consumption considerably since the holidays. 

Over the last four months, I've lost almost 10lbs and I sleep much better than I have in the past. Maybe I should try going sober. From everything I have read, and from the stories friends have told me, cutting alcohol consumption entirely can be life-changing. Meanwhile, I'll let that idea of participating in a long-term cleanse ferment for a while.

A quick trip to Amador County today. Followed by a nap and some time in the backyard. The geraniums are thriving. And, I’m content.
