One of the things that first attracted me to Rob when I was first dating him was his interest and appreciation of good food, good wine and quality spirits. At the time, I was selling wine for a very nice importer/distributor so we always had plenty of great wine on hand to pair with delicious food with my favorite restaurant accounts!

We are both adventurous eaters and up for trying anything and everything. Read More...

Two words: diarrhea and tights. Not a good combination especially in a public restroom at a playground. Read More...
