This Week's Blog Post

Brecciated Jasper Earrings
These pretty beads are brecciated jasper which has a beautiful brownish red tone with dark grey markings.  In between is a corrugated sterling silver bead. These are available at Etsy.

Bota Box Wine
Don’t laugh, but Jim and I discovered a boxed wine we like!

The eco-friendly packaging caught my eye first!

Then we read that this received 88 points in the taste test. Pretty good so we gambled.

It is so convenient since it can be brought hiking, boating, to the beach, on a picnic, camping or fishing.  

I find this funny.  I would not pair wine with hiking. The other activities, yes.
Bota Box has other wines as well but the red zinfandel is the only one with the high rating on the taste test. That may mean the others are terrible. 

It was around $15 and equivalent to 4 bottles of wine. It supposedly stays good up to 4 weeks opened too although I never expect an open box to last that long since red wine is part of my nightly routine.

NECTAR Treasury
Here is my first team Treasury. A special thanks goes out to those of you who sent me the information on how to embed a Treasury here!
