Stoney’s Bottle Bargains - proud home of ALL WINE ALL THE TIME @ 30% off - will host a Wine Tasting with Proprietor and wine connoisseur Stone Savage. Savage has built a solid reputation for finding delicious, well priced and lesser known wines.
A few of his picks are the ‘07 Healdsburg Ranches Chardonnay. “This unoaked chardonnay sourced from Sonoma County is crisp, clean varietal and is an excellent value at $10.49. Pair with Fettuccine Alfredo and Roast Chicken.” The ‘04 Cristom Syrah says Stoney is a “Cristom Vineyards renowned for their excellent Oregon Pinot Noirs. The cool weather Syrah with lots of black pepper and raspberry is half its normal price. At $17.49, it works deliciously with Leg of Lamb, or Beef Stew.”

COWS THAT TYPE...
CLICK, CLACK, MOO
Dear Mommy and Daddy,
We want to go to this.
Sincerely,
Your Kids.
As a father of two young boys who took their story time seriously, nothing made bedtime more enjoyable than when they chose one of the books from the Click, Clack, Moo series. These Animal Farm-meets-Gary Larson titles are genius in their wonderful humor and hilarious artwork. Their apparent simplicity makes you think “damn, I wish I would’ve wrote this,” but the fact that you can discover something new to laugh at every time you read the books reveals what masterpieces they really are.

The boutique next to A Few of My Favorite Things which carries treasures and art is reflected in the décor of World Piece.
