Happy Sunday, friends! My latest bi-weekly roundup in wine, food, lifestyle, design and travel.


Finding Glimmers
Glimmers are small moments that bring you joy, awe, calm, or connection. This could be spotting a beautiful flower, getting in a good walk, receiving a smile, or taking in a cool piece of art. Find your glimmers!


Looking Back on the PSL
When the PSL lands, you know fall is almost here. This link shares the history of the PSL and how Starbucks almost didn’t launch it due to uncertainty around people liking the flavor! Now a cult favorite celebrating 20 years, two new fall drinks are being released in its honor.


Ultimate Winery Views
One of my favorite things — a winery experience in an unparalleled setting! I especially loved this one, Château L’Hospitalet, in France’s southern, sun-drenched Languedoc region.


Trapped in the Tower
Well, here’s one way to see the sights! Two men were discovered after spending a drunken night in the Eiffel Tower. Of course, they were American!


All the Hotel Hacks
Using a hanger to secure light-leaking curtains in your room, and other hotel-specific issues with equally ingenious patches. Some of the best traveler hacks I have seen for hotel rooms!


Europe’s Travel Tax
From 2024, it will no longer be free to travel to Europe. Everything you need to know about ETIAS and Europe’s city taxes headed our way.


The Salt Guide
Where would we be without salt? Breaking down the difference between table salt, kosher salt, and finishing salts — and the right time to use each.
Hope you have a wonderful and relaxing rest of your weekend!
