Party Time

You know that thing I mentioned last week but couldn’t tell you about? I’ve been asked to be one of the judges for the 2019 Fortnum & Mason Food & Drink Awards. I won the Online Drinks Writer Award in their inaugural year back in 2013 and, ohmigod, the party was one of the most celebrity-strewn events I’ve ever been to in my life. Also one of the funniest thanks to my then editor (don’t worry, no names Liz) getting out an empty lunchbox and filling it with free F&M macarons as we left. But seriously, it’s a complete joy to be involved once again. I’ll keep you posted.

Now, some of you have been asking for festive wine advice so I’ve done a couple of sparklings this week. Next week, we’ll do whites, reds and sweeties for the main event. If there’s anything in particular you’re looking for, let me know.
