Wine - SOUTH AFRICAN WINES  the South Africans are big into BBQ’s they call them BRAI. ( BRI). Excelsior wines, Raats, Glenelly.....RAATS: Our Jasper Red Blend pays homage to Bruwer's late father, Jasper Raats Snr, who joined the family business in 2000 as viticulturist and helped to establish our iconic Eden High Density Single Vineyard blocks on the farm.

This opulent Cape Bordeaux is a blend of five varieties, with Cabernet Franc as the leading component, perfectly balanced with the explosiveness of Malbec, the structure of Cabernet Sauvignon, the silkiness of Merlot and the spiciness of Petit Verdot. The Jasper Red Blend is a faultless expression of a Cape Bordeaux Blend. Like its namesake, it is anything but ordinary. With 53% Cabernet Franc and 36% Malbec, Jasper Red Blend is groundbreaking because, as far as we know, no other blend anywhere in the world has this unique composition.

Stories:Baseball Stadiums and Romantic Places
Most of us know or have visited COOPERSTOWN, NY the Baseball Hall of Fame.  It is a great place to visit - off the beaten path but surrounded by lush hills and close enough to the Finger Lakes to enjoy NY wine country. I used to be a great batter in the batting cages.  The last time I was there all the balls came out at me at once.  I screamed like a girl.
An unusual historical baseball stadium is located there, DOUBLEDAY FIELD. This stadium has been there since 1920. Historically, the annual Hall of Fame Game was held there until 1908.
Also noteworthy, FENWAY PARK, located in Boston, home to the Boston Red Sox 1912.  Famous for its tallest stadium wall in the U.S, the GREEN MONSTER,  it's the original WALL.
Lastly, WRIGLEY FIELD, located in a neighborhood of Chicago and home to the Chicago Cubs.This location is surrounded by restaurants, bars and residences! The neighbors can watch the game right from their rooftops.

Romantic places for me will always be in France.  While most would choose Paris, one really wants to visit the Bordeaux coast seashore…straying into the other areas such as the seaside of Cape Ferret : An Insider Guide to Cap Ferret. https://www.84rooms.com/journal/an-insider-guide-to-cap-ferret

Athletes as role models, heroes, teachers
The athletes that I admire the most are the ones who posses HUMILITY.
Simone Biles, a designated GOAT ( Greatest of All Time) should not need an introduction.
Perhaps some of you don’t know that she was raised by exceptional foster parents.  She is a victorious survivor of abuse by her former OLYMPIC coach.
Here is her COME BACK routine where she absolutely stuns us all.




 



https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxffYmmuRVLOLsuDA59QQFxvh3C3rsguJ2
Another humble athlete who exhibits humility is 
https://youtube.com/shorts/KVxbDazibEA?feature=share
hits the ball out of the stadium 450 feet
I love that he hits a foul out of the stadium at 114 mph and doesn’t even show emotion. 
There you have it. Humility wins with heroes/heroines and role models. 
 
Kundalini yoga - this quote is from tut.com: 
"Relax. Breathe in deep. Hold it. Let it out. Loosen your shoulders. Smile. Close your eyes. And you’ll be surprised, dear Valerie, by how many voices you'll hear, whispering sweet encouragement into your ear.Kissy, kissy, you can do it - The Universe"
I also practice QI CHONG for high blood pressure
https://youtu.be/Zwk_JmnfFAY.  Use this to lower blood pressure.  I practice it a few times a week
Wine - Can the bottling of wine and spirits be ecologically responsible? “ natural resources are extracted, not used to their fullest potential, and then turned to waste. It has facilitated efficient mass production, but at the cost of a colossal waste and natural resources crisis. Wine bottles, even if recycled, carry an enormous carbon footprint. “
"When you manufacture a glass bottle you need temperatures of 1,480 Celsius [2,700 Fahrenheit] for 24 hours, a bit less if it’s recycled material. We wash for 30 minutes at a maximum temperature of 80 Celsius [176 Fahrenheit]. I take into account that sometimes we need to buy new bottles, but even so our carbon footprint is 10 times lower than it would be,” says Grafé.

ROMANCE  and BASEBALL:  DREAMS Fulfilled
There are certain songs that take us back to our first love encounter, perhaps a summer love or even now if you are blessed with having that special person in your life...Music reminds us of many dreams, which we all want to be fulfilled.
Price Pritchett talks about the effect of YOU2 (you squared) : “This is a Quantum Leap strategy, that can deliver those special dreams and ambitions that you instinctively feel should be yours." Even when it comes to one's romance and love life, YOU2 can be followed.  Life changes will happen for what you deserve.
(The process its laid out in his classic handbook, YOU2) .
When I think of Romance, for my past, I remember listening  to SADE, 
https://youtu.be/zwDjJP_l5AY?si=tPKyA8GpE64iqkoR
Or songs that have nothing to do with Romance , but make you feel on top of the world, or dancing alone.. here are a few suggestions; 
https://youtu.be/k0YFY0CcqjM Bodeans GOOD THINGS 
Now Baseball, is the epitome of summer fun and happiness.  The game can also represent dreams fulfilled..so many athletes striving for greatness during their games...  I feel very happy when I watch baseball as do millions of people.. and here’s why: many times you get to witness the commaraderie of the team mates, the playful antics, the pranksters..  
check this out: https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxZXLfmzMuCBebVzcbiyQCZTQwmaPxInZT?si=SrGz1tHA9rx70AiW
The idea  is that we all have hidden gifts, potential assets that go unused.  We  want to open those gifts as Price Pritchett tells us.  Even in Romance and Baseball, there are choices that we make which are life changing.  And that’s just it… when it comes to CHANGE, many of us chicken out.  Watch Pritchett’s GO BRAVE short clip in the section below under "DISCOVER"

WINE  Portugal has some of the best undiscovered and value added wines produced.  One of my favorites in a Rose’ from the Lagos area, in the Algarve.  And a bargain @ about $15.

Shohei, Taylor, Quantum Leaps: Baseball, Romance, Luck?
 
I don’t usually talk about celebs, however there is a correlation here that I want to make between Shohei, Taylor and Quantum Leaps.
Quantum Leaps, according to Price Pritchett lead to explosive results.
We all have the capacity for Quantum Leaps.  Pritchett tells us, “ we get in our way” of being open to them.
I am using these two celebs as examples because, while they are both young, they have already experienced difficult times, persevered, now laser focused to reach their penultimate.  Here are the takeaways: look at the five closest people you hang out with: are they people who you respect and can support each other in life’s path? Stop wasting time on social media, Netflix, etc: Dr.Pritchett tells us that we use only ten% of our potential and waste sixty hours a week on the above.  This summer do something that opens you up to  quantum leaps. ( suggestions in the podcast)

Wine - Champagne Demystified Champagne is the only wine that leaves a woman beautiful after drinking it.” Madame De Pompadour
Champagne, the king of wines in France,  is so  misunderstood by many Americans as they like to call anything that has “bubbles”, champagne.  I know this from my own experience of twenty-six years of selling French wine and other imports.
I don’t correct them but I can guide them to the ultra difference between Champagne and Prosecco, Cava, Cremants, and America 
To clarify, Champagne - true Champagne, not the California illegally labeled champagne,  can only be made in Champagne,  France. Champagne is a specific region with very strict laws governing varietal, aging and production. To call American bubbles,  Champagne is akin to calling all “sneakers” NIKE…
 
Champagne HOUSES, have a distinct style of their own: the blend of varietals is usually a combination of Chardonnay, Petit Meunier and Pinot Noir.  The HOUSE style never 
Never.  It is extremely difficult to produce the exact same flavor profile every year.
Champagne by law must be aged at least two years before it is sold publicly. Krug ages their wines for at least five years before their entry level wine is sold.  That is very expensive inventory.
 
The process of creating a House style is technically challenging as the first fermentation basically prepares the wine for the crucial disgorgement to add the “dosage.”
Think of this dosage as a “house secret sauce.”
The second fermentation rests and ferments while the Champagne master turns each bottle by hand a quarter of inch. This process is called “ riddling”.  It is labor intensive as each bottle is turned a quarter of an inch by hand. Up to 40,000 bottles a day is common and the  remueur, the riddler, is making certain that the dosage and yeasts are blended into the wine bottle.
Today, it is more common to see mechanization of this process by gyropalettes.

Gua sha can be used as a preventative or as a first-aid treatment for common conditions such as a cold, flu, headache, asthma, bronchitis and both chronic and acute pain.
