One Girl, Many Maps, Many Mishaps. For corresponding blog photos, please visit my website:. Sunday, November 28, 2010. Ode to the Michaels. The next day, we woke early to meet Michael Terrien, a contact sent my way through an old HarperCollins. Author named Michael Sanders. Terrien had assisted Sanders on his wine books, and was a man with his Napa Valley hands full. Little did we know that by the end of the day, we would find ourselves equally blessed by Terrien’s hand. Paired with our $150 Ai Cabernet ...

Once upon a sleep evading night circa 2 or 3 AM, I made a whole bunch of workout mixes on my iPod. Thing is, I usually don’t make it down to Dance Mix 5 or Dance Mix 6 during my workouts (as marathons also evade me lately) but on today’s run, I skipped right down to Dance Mix 5 and hit play. Enter today’s run. 8220;Game O...

One Girl, Many Maps, Many Mishaps. For corresponding blog photos, please visit my website:. Thursday, October 28, 2010. Ever wake up on a vineyard? Until a couple of weeks ago. I won’t lie; it didn’t suck. Sleep in my eyes, my country house bed was super-duper-comfortable, but I just couldn’t linger in quilts and sheets when the clock struck 8. My usual wake-up ritual (snoozing 6-10 times) didn’t stand up in wine country. Sunlight. Shimmered on the rows and rows of vines outside my dew-laced window.

When I received word that I’d been cleared to attend the. 2011 James Beard Awards. I had to sit down and compose myself. I fancied myself a bon vivant, and quickly became the go-to girl in my social circles for advice, reservation, and night out suggestions on anything and everything food. I obliged. Please,. I relished the role. New York had nothing on the. Fresh from ...

It's been a long time since I've given my Marie's World blog any love. I've been running around countries and cities trying to make a living, but that's a whole other blog. Which I will write. Soon. No, really, I promise. What a whirlwind weekend! Luckily, Leslie Sbrocco and the Thirsty Girl. Gang were quick to remind me that the New York Wine Expo.

Party on our second night made me realize that regardless of the open-armed, accessible experiences in Sonoma, the snooty wine mentality still exists in some circles. A nameless editrix bedecked in ill-chosen animal print boots shook my hand with, gasp. Two fingers when introduced through a mutual friend. Wow.

I’ve heard the saying ‘what a difference a year makes for,’ well. It always sounded so cliché, so trite. It’s a year, people. A mere 365 days. How much can actually happen. A year here and a year there had blurred together into nine years. In publicity at HarperCollins Publishers. A starter studio in Manhattan turned into a ten-. She might or might not have be...

When I arrived at the Nairobi International Airport in early June, I wasn’t sure what to expect. A travel writer, I’d seen the likes of five continents, but this was my first trip to Africa and I was trying to withhold expectations. My goal was to merely absorb what I experienced and process later. I was in Africa on a charity mission —. Each morning, as I ...
