Wine-y Parents

This week we discuss a range of topics pertaining to our own lives.  Our intermittent fasting, changing where our family spends time, our fundraising efforts, and some news on how alcohol affects our goals. 

This Week's Wine: Apothic Rose - Recommend

This week we interview a local couple that owns a growing business in St. Thomas called Chick Boss Cake.  They make delicious desserts, and they are incredible people with a great story to tell about their business and themselves. 

They have locations in St. Thomas, Woodstock and London. 

This Week's Wine: The Magic Box Amazing Cabernet - Recommend 

This week we interview the author of "How to Raise Successful People". Esther Wojcicki is a remarkable woman whose successes and achievements are far too numerous to list. 

She has spent her life making education easier for students and teachers and has created a method for raising and guiding children of any age. 

You owe it to yourself to listen this week!

This week we're doing our very first interview with two amazing people, Matt and Tonya Rumas. Matt is a firefighter in St. Thomas and Tonya is a highschool teacher also in St. Thomas. 

We discussed many topics ranging from how teaching has been affected by COVID, how firefighters have had to adjust their craft, what it was like for Tonya to get COVID and even the Mandalorian. 

We had an absolute blast with these two and we know you will too. 

This Week's Wine: Pinot Grigio from Delle Venezie - Everyone liked it (we forgot to ask for recommendations).

This week we make a chicken casserole while touching on the subject of haters, our son's diagnosis of Plagiocephaly, our desire to do some fundraising, our upcoming interview episodes, and the complications of meeting new friends as adults.
