Three Chicks And A Bottle Of Wine
Happiness One Splash at A Time
Blog: The Chicks Uncorked I’ve always had an ambivalent relationship with weddings. They’re a lengthy time commitment for attendees — at home my dogs will need to go out, and I’m sure to be missing something good on TV that night. The majority of the couples are living under the same roof already so why... Continue Reading →
