"ENCORE! ENCORE! ENTOURAGE!" Exceptional New Years Eve! @ meritage in napa #vellumdays
for us, we wanted to be wherever entourage was performing for new years eve. they are a guaranteed great, dance all night, pack the dance floor... such a fun, talented, high energy, entertaining band! turns out, they were at meritage resort in napa -again!! exceptional time! and all bonus that awesome elva is sister of... and daughter of.. -founded by her late father; brothers keeping entourage going strong
-some context & history:
so, outstanding band, gorgeous venue, best of friends to dance the night away with..
very definition of blessed! /elva did get her foot accidentally stomped by a stiletto..
but, save that happening.. crazy great time! -and, just between you and i..
we did have the coolest table.. envy of the place, because my husband thought to bring snacks
-and, made me laugh when sophia said to him, "you're the team mom"
great team we were!
-all "thank you!" prayers and community tithing
****
and speaking of michelin stars..
speaking of encores... "cheers!" to rutherford's grill and those off the charts crazy good prime rib french dips!! we went before and after the party.. michelin star from the micks..
-was sharing with my kids when they were here visiting over the holidays..
i read books to help introduce myself to people and places i would never otherwise know..
to explore.
but, same can be said, of watching youtube videos:
and michelin star restaurants around the world would be completely unknown to me,
but, "thank you!" to this couple.. i've visited a few now. -extraordinary, the creativity at every level; attention to detail.. spectrum.. different cultures, fusions..
subscribed to their channel.
/oh, no... rabbit hole..
youtube: favorite interview! michael knowles/chris langan -smartest man in the world. both interviewer & interviewee new to me.. but, as i'm less fond of small talk, and really fond of long, uninterrupted, large talks: i was glued to this entire interview "thank you!" -which.. can't say enough wonderful things about youtube..
but,
let's go back to those michelin star restaurants... i think i saw..
if not, a true, authentic, handmade german dreamlight tea light holder..
-very close, and used as a dessert dish.. YES.. gorgeous!
these are so gorgeous! can be used in so many different ways, adds stunning beauty to any area that contains it
i am telling you.. my imagination went wild! watching the videos on their website. like, how can a team of creatives from california, get to go to germany.. train.
learn from the masters.
open a shop here! -customize, personalize...
and, what i wouldn't give if they sold direct to customer, but they are wholesale only..
anyway.. crazy LOVE them! check em out here
****
excited for 2026.. calendar already filling up: multiple weddings, milestone celebrations, family visits/vacations..
focused on chad bianco for governor, and will be working toward that goal..
"Thank You Jesus!" million, trillion thank you's
hallelujah & amen
