Food Tasting Field Trip!!!


For our Christmas party we decided to take a field trip to the Market District for wine tasting and food exploration. Upon her arrival, Teri presented each of us with these most fabulous Christmas tree glasses, which we wore throughout the store and brought Christmas cheer to all that were near.

If I were to estimate, I would say that we probably pasted at least 32 smiles on everyday faces that night. Had it been a busier night at the Market, I believe the numbers would have been much higher. Of course, there are always a few faces that belong to grumpy souls and cracking a smile on one of those usually requires alcohol or ice cream, not funky, festive glasses, but you do what you can, right?

After some wine, eating, and discussion over future Food Tasting ideas, we decided to venture out and about.

Carrie and Anne entertained themselves with this teeny tiny pear....lol..


Meanwhile, Jen was getting giddy over finding her favorite Pinot Noir that up until now, she had to have shipped to Ohio. NOW, she's got herself a local dealer for her prized wine.....King Estate.


Oh yeah, and THIS was the entrance Teri made when she entered the wine section. I had my camera ready, because I knew there would be a show when she arrived...and I was right!

And, as Teri would say, "THIS is what Joy looks like!" Teri's joy comes from giving and all of our joy comes from receiving what Teri gives us....lol!

Jen and I would like to take this time to thank "Miss Joy" for her fabulous glasses b/c we have gotten mucho fun from them. We have worn them to family Christmas parties, kid's Christmas parties, friend's Christmas parties. I have greeted many patients over the week with the glasses and they were a HUGE hit! Just three more days to spread the joy and fun with dorky eye-ware..ho ho ho!

Who knew a dollar item from Target could bring such joy to so many people?!

May your Christmases be Merry and Bright and may the New Year be filled with lots of great food and fabulous fun!

Meeeeeeerry Christmas Everyone!!!

Jen and Sheri
