There were so many people at the Last Friday of the Month Wine Tasting at Cafe Med that you literally had to beat your way up to the counter...

Thanks for sending in today’s questions, “What is the difference between champagne and sparkling wine?” and “Is champagne made in California?”

I’m trying to keep the New Year’s resolutions that I made for this wine column: No. 1, to check out all wine offerings at big discount food chain markets; No. 2, to visit all new wine shops, wine bars, and restaurants...

When Cheryl and I returned from the desert after Thanksgiving, we proceeded to begin our first real vacation in about 15 years. We’d had plenty of days attached to the weekends, like a Friday or a Monday, but our family...

I expected to be surrounded by smut. After all, what is Sin City if not a town full of graffiti, trash, and an endless barrage of adult temptations?
In fact, the last time I was in Vegas some 30-plus years ago, it was indeed dirty,...

Have you decided what your New Year’s resolution will be this year? Haven’t you made this same resolution before?
Most of us set unrealistic goals that are too hard and expect too much, too fast. In this way, we tend to...
