The dastardly heat and humidity of summer is finally breaking. I’m feeling Fall on my morning walks and dinners have moved back to the screened porch.

Ahhhh, my screened porch! Truly my favorite room “in” the house. Yes, it’s a room complete with area rug, comfy furniture, table lamps, wall art and even wispy curtains to frame the view. This is also our favorite spot for friends to gather, casual and comfortable. Frequently for something as simple as whatever wine is on hand and a game around the table, whether that be dominoes, cards or our newest fave, Bananagrams! Haven’t tried it? You must!!!!

To celebrate this subtle shift in weather and activities, I am declaring September as wine month for South House Boutique. With the purchase of any wine-related item (bottle bags, stemware cozies, wine tote) you will receive FREE (and don’t we all love free?) a PDF file for my wine tasting scorecards based on pop culture. Print off as many as you need and gather the gang for a wine-tasting that promises to be lively and fun, if slightly irreverent.
