I tried Tasting Room, here’s what happened.
Have you guys seen the Tasting Room ads on Pinterest? “The Netflix for Wine,” I’ll admit it’s a bit gimmicky but it was enough to spark my interest. I am a wine lover and I especially love when I find a high-quality bottle under $20 #frugalwinesnob.

I have been throwing the idea of joining a wine club for a while now, mostly because nothing beats booze delivered to your doorstep.

About Me
My name is Anna, and food hasn’t always been my passion.
I spent the first years of my life allergic to almost everything. I remember the smell of fish frying in my mother’s kitchen almost sending me into anaphylactic shock when I was a child. Those days, my diet consisted of boiled chicken, steamed green vegetables, and the occasional green fruit. Continue reading “About Me”
