La Festa del Barolo.

Last night I had the honor to be invited as a guest sommelier for Antonio Galloni's La Festa del Barolo at Del Posto. I was delighted to see some killer juice being poured.

If a picture is worth a thousand words, than here you go.

Quotes to calm the nerves.

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
- Mark Twain
Twelve days to go and I need to remind myself to just breathe. Are we crazy for doing this? As I start to add up all that we have spent so far, I become very anxious of what will we return to. I am becoming quite overwhelmed by this, especially in the last few days. Let the anxiety begin! Bring on the Xanax!
I guess my point is that we will always reach a point in life that we second guess our decisions that we make. I refuse to allow the fear to get to me. I remind myself to just breath.
We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure.
There is no end to the adventures we can have
if only we seek them with our eyes open.

-Jawaharial Nehru
