The Belle Mead Experience | Wine Wednesday

Hi ya Gorgeous, 

Today I share some experience from the Belle Mead historic site and winery. It's a plantation from back in the day that now is a walk through preservation of life in the beginning of the United States. They call it a sanctuary of southern life. It certainly was full of beauty!

 

It's very large, very green, very muggy hot and very awesome! The website says, "
Belle Meade is dedicated to the preservation of Tennessee’s history, architecture, hospitality, and equestrian legacy.".  I agree! My favorite was the rich horse history and how so many winners were sired through Bonnie Scotland! (see photo below)

 

In this Wine Wednesday with a fanology lesson from the Belle Meade historical site and winery in Nashville Tennessee. I do have some footage to share from the grounds and will post in a separate video. 

 

 

 

 

Oh it was so beautiful, so green, and so so muggy hot, hence, the need for a personal fan. That fan has come in handy many a time now that I am back on the West coast. The wine is from a tasting held on site and there were 4 varietals though I only purchased one.

 

 

Below are links to Belle Meade so you can enjoy too! As well as an Amazon affiliate link for a fan to practice fanology for yourself! Thank you for shopping with me as I do get a penny when you use the link!

Filler’ up Friday - how to add power steering fluid

Hi ya Gorgeous!

Happy Friday and happy beginning of the weirdest Memorial Day weekend ever!

 

I'm getting ready for a road trip and naturally, that means to check the fluids and tires on the ol' family truckster.

I've already checked the oil, radiator and reservoir, windshield wiper fluid, transmission fluid and tire pressure. I noticed when giving the engine a look over - looking for anything funky or out of place, perhaps a hose the is about to crack and showing signs of wear? Nope. Not what I found - what I did discover is that the power steering fluid was low.

I love Lucas Oil products. I'm a fan. When I am at the Walmart or auto store, it's what I go for without question. I'm not sponsored or paid to say loving things about the brand, it's just good stuff. Lucas Oil products are about the same price as other major brands and in some cases may be just a dollar or so more. Totally worth the price and satisfaction!

Hello and happy Tuesday to you - not just any Tuesday, but REsolve Tuesday! Now as the month of July is done- kaput! Let's take a look back so we can assess where you are and how you can clear your vision to go forward.

To keep you giggling and motivated, please take a look at this Xenomorph PEZ dispenser! I love it! I'm such an Aliens fan, and I mean the movie - not the Area 51. I have no plans of going to the base and trying to free aliens.  What do you think of that?

Monday Summer Tips For Just In Case ...;

Hi ya Gorgeous!

Quick note to check in with ya and to see if anyone else is experiencing the pressure ( self induced might I add...) to the year being half over, or 3/4 over if you are on the  Hebraic calendar!

But God! Where did the time go! This month there is so much activity and travel and ... *sigh* ...time to focus!

Summer is in full swing! In fact my state is finally in the summer temperatures and went straight to heat advisory triple digits!

So here are 3 videos to help you with your hair, your smile and your sunscreen!
 

Enjoy and please be sure and tell me what your best summer beauty tips are in the comments!

Lightening your hair naturally with dandruff shampoo and vitamin C - great for lifting box color!

Well, if it's not on the internet it might not be true? I am stunned by the results! Enjoy the scientific test I did on myself to lighten my box of accidentally black when it was supposed to be blue hair. Things to know: this had a very strong scent. I have a keen sense of smell to begin with, though this really had a strong scent that even after I washed my hair - I could smell the vitamin C! Good luck to you if you need to try this!

Live Demo of PRO LIGHT Dental Whitening System by Luster Premium White

Summer is here and there will be photos! Or graduation. Or just wanting to look your best. I received this sample from Luster Premium White, it has a new blue packaging which will look different than their old red packaging if you are looking for it online or in some retail markets. We tested it live on camera - and honestly, it worked!
This kit is available at Walmart or online at Amazon https://amzn.to/2LeTySA

Wine Wednesday - All My Israeli Wines in One Place

Hi ya Gorgeous!

Today's wine video is a review of all of my Israel wines I purchased at The Barrel Room in Texas. This photo is from Glory of Zion in Denton. That was such a fun weekend and we had a lot of great experiences while there. We only make it out once a year - and it's always worth it!

Enjoy the video review and there is a link below so you can check out The Barrel Room yourself! Note - in Arizona, the liquor law doesn't allow the sale of the wine in state without them having a facility in the state. Weird. For all of you outside of Arizona - get some!




Thank you for watching and please let me know what your fave summer wine is.

REsolve Tuesday: Don't Quit! Even When You Feel Like It!

 Hi ya Gorgeous!
Happy Tuesday! Happy summer vacation and in case you like me have a heinous commute for the school year - happy no more commuting!

Oh it's the little things in life that bring such joy! Like, not having to do the 4 hour round trip grind of commuting - we both hate it! Ugh!

Though that is not what is at the top of the list for today's REsolve Tuesday topic, it's actually, don't quit.

See, we both hated the commute but it was so important to do it. So we did. There could be something that you are working towards, or on, or waiting to see the end of the tunnel light peek through and though you may be wanting to just give in and give up, to quit, I'm here to tell you, don't!

Don't quit!

Even when you feel like it!  You will be more mad at yourself for quitting than you will if you stick it out.  I have read numerous accounts of people who have survived suicide and they all say they regretted it the nano second that they jumped off the bridge, swallowed the pills or slit the wrists.
Regret can be a powerful thing.  These suicide survivors were hurting so bad the moment before hurting themselves though the power of life is such a precious gift that the moment they tried to give it back, they regretted it!

So I tell ya, no matter what the struggle is right now - please don't give up. Find one wee piece of joy that you can hang on to that could help you make it through.  People who work the 12 steps for addiction recovery, sometimes start with just focusing on the hour.  Make it through this hour. Then the next.

Start planning on your calendar - write it down - the victories you have enjoyed and how you are going to celebrate the next one!

You can do it! I'm cheering you on! 

p.s. Why no video today? Because I keep melatonin in my bedside stand and it is right next to my morning thyroid medicine. Sure, I should have seen this coming and it has honestly never happened until today.  This morning, in the wee 5 am early light, I fumbled in the drawer for the pill bottle and as I swallowed I noticed, the pill shape was different! Talk about the feeling of regret!

I had swallowed the melatonin instead of thyroid medicine and as there was no getting the pill back I had to adjust my day to half of the workload because I knew that I would be spending the other half asleep!

REsolve Tuesday - LIVE!

Hey~! Hi ya Gorgeous!

Happy Tuesday that for me sure feels a lot like a Monday! My son had yesterday off from school so today sure feels out of whack! Whoa! No worries though - I'm ready to get back on track and tighten up my goals game!

Thanks for joining me for my first live on YouTube! Today is REsolve Tuesday and it's my "re"resolve to your goals and new year resolutions that you are working on. Thanks for watching and let me know in the comments how the live format works for you!

Muah!
