Adult homeschooling

by

759966_wine_glass.jpgSometimes I find myself so wrapped up in raising my children that I can forget that I need a little TLC too. A good book, a warm bath, and a nice glass of wine are enough to pamper me and leave me feeling relaxed. Now I will admit my knowledge of wine is slim to none. I like somethign sweet, light, and affordable; and by affordable I mean cheap. The kind of stuff that true wine lovers turn their noses up at. So I had to smile when I read this article Homeschooling for Newbie Wine Drinkers. Perfect! And there’s even a homework assignment to enrich the learning experience with.

So there you are mom and dad, you have a little homeschooling to do yourselves. You can become a little more cultured, a little more knowledgable, or just have a good excuse to enjoy a glass of wine with dinner. If the thought of trying a selection of various wines has you wrinkling up your nose you might want to read Open a Bottle, Open Your Mind. Who knows, the wine you swore you would never like may just be your new favorite.
