50 Shades of Red – A Glass of Wine a Day for 50 Days

May 30, 2013 by Caroline Eaton 3 Comments

Finally! 50 days later I am answering your questions! What the heck is this #50ShadesofRed and all the wine I’m seeing take over Traveling 9 to 5’s Twitter, Instagram and Facebook?!

If you follow our travels you know two things:

1. I love wine.

2. We’ve been housesitting for the past 3 months in Northern California.

The story behind 50 Shades of Red starts with this view:

This was our view from the porch. We had 50 days until we flew to Toronto (for #TBEX), and before we left we committed to slowing down our pace for an hour a day to enjoy the view of the unbelievable location we were at!

Yes, you will see a few white wines mixed in, on the hot days I was craving a crisp white vs. a rich cabernet. Josh and I had fun with it – it was our way to relax at the end of the day and look forward to the hour when the world stopped and him and I could just sit on our porch … happy.

 

Some of our favorite memories from the past 50 days:

    Love this idea 🙂 Dan and I got engaged at a winery and married in a vineyard, so needless to say we love wine as well. With a view like that, I can’t imagine a better way to enjoy it!
