Art, Beauty, History, and Cuisine on the English Riviera

November 9, 2019 by Samantha PriestleyLeave a Comment

Along with my partner, I recently took a short trip down to the English Riviera where I found beauty, history, and the most incredible food! We were lucky with the weather, the sun shone the whole time we were there and the air was warm and balmy, but I imagine this place is almost as scenic when the weather isn’t as accommodating. This part of Devon is best known for Torquay, home of Faulty Towers, but we wanted something a little more off the … [Read more...]

NewAir 15” Built-in 29 Bottle Dual Zone Compressor Wine Fridge

October 24, 2019 by DaveLeave a Comment

Remarkably after 14 years of visiting wineries up and down the Napa Valley and beyond, I've never owned a wine refrigerator.
