Wine Tasting Party


My family pretty much loves Halloween and we try to celebrate as many times as we can during the month.  Last night my sister decided to throw a Halloween wine tasting party with just the girls. Everyone brought different wines and had a bit of each. It was so much fun to sit around and have girl talk while enjoying a nice glass of wine and treats like cheeses, chocolate, grapes, and cupcakes. My sister makes the best chive and pecan cheeseball and she says it's super easy to make. I'll have to learn and share with all of you. This was the first time we've done a wine tasting party but we've already decided it's the kind of party we want to have often. Do you do anything fun leading up to the Halloween festivities?

    This is a great idea for Hallowe'en! I'm addicted to cheese, so the chive and pecan cheeseball looks divine.

    Lucky you. Guess what I get to do around Halloween?

    Cram a textbook in my face and probably cry. :P
