In a moment of blind narcissism I have copied a new Facebook friend’s first blog post for my readers to read…and heartily agree with. She has a unique business – one I’ve been clicking through all week – thrift shopping on line: Instead of issuing the usual newsletter this week, I thought I would try…
After I posted a letter from Peter Goossens Founder of the Loose Goose (see post just below this one) I started receiving messages from Dear Wine Friends. Not everyone has a Yahoo account to comment on my blog. If you would like to add to this post you can e-mail me any time at ebushman@earthlink.net…
