NIGHT CAP

Dessert wines are one of my many guilty pleasures.  Biscotti is not just for dipping into your espresso.  I’ll take a lovely glass of vin santo with the lingering taste of honey and apricots with a touch of cream.  Keep your coffee or espresso (which traditionally comes before vin santo BTW).  If you end up at the opening of the collective exhibit for this next Call, have a glass for me.  Better yet, bring me a bottle of vin santo back as a souvenir…it beats a t-shirt anytime!

Check out this Call for Entries for the 6th Annual International Arte Laguna Prize.  I won’t try to disguise it…this exhibit/prize is an expensive budget buster, but the prizes and opportunities to exhibit are worth the risk.  Take a look…
