Yesterday afternoon officially kicked off our first night of Winter break, and while there are still a few items to check off the list, it was nice to feel as if we were moving into a slower pace of life for the next couple of weeks.
And with that, I’m sharing my last post of 2024. I wanted to take a moment to thank you for being “here” (opening e-mails, sending messages, and all of the support over the year) and I hope everyone has a wonderful next few weeks, celebrating the holiday season with those you choose. I know this time of the year is filled with happiness for many, and for others it’s full of stress and oftentimes sadness. To the latter, I am sending extra love this season.
It felt fitting to end 2025 on a bubbly note, so today I’m sharing our list of favorite champagnes, and sparkling wines, for yourself, to gift, or for a celebratory occasion. I’ve placed them in order from most to least expensive (the middle bubbles are all around the same price give or take a few dollars), but no necessarily in order of preference since I think they are all amazing.
See you in the new year!
