Joan, I got the latest copy of WineMaker magazine today and flipped through right away to see if your label was in there... sure enough, page 35. You were up against some heavy competition this year as there are some awesome labels to be seen

[Joanie]

Thanks, friends! I so appreciate your kind thoughts. It's a heady experience to see something you're created in print! It's a first for me but hopefully not the last!

You should frame it and hang it over your wine making station next to your medals.

My "wine making station"? Hehe that sounds funny! It's more like my kitchen! =)

Ditto here....I keep my wine making stuff in the kitchen, so I can keep an eye on everything.

Congrats on the labels, Joan.


My wimemaking 'station' is the kitchen table also. Had to get the wife involved to ease the comments. She's on her first kit.


By the way Joan, who's your friend in Louisiana, that's where I operate from.

 

[Joanie]

He's not too far from you. He's in Ruston. He started making wine because I was making wine. A classic case of monkey see, monkey do! =)
