Tell us a bit about your journey as a wine lover
Coming from a European family, wine has been something introduced to me at a young age to have with dinner (or food). However, I did not get to appreciate it until I was much older and my social circle became more diverse with different age groups, cultures, and experiences. They just simply wouldn’t put up with my vodka soda b.s. and introduced me to having “experiences” with wine and food rather than just “having drinks.” (However, I still like to just do that too! – Full circle.) Now I get to teach my friends and customers my shared experiences and knowledge, which is one of my favourite things about my day-to-day work.
Appointments for Sunday s clinic filled up fast as 750 people signed up to receive the vaccine.

Mayor Sylvester Turner announced that the Moderna vaccine was being administered at the city s site located at the Bayou City Event Center.
People without appointments were asked not to show up at the site because they will not be seen.
Most of Sunday s appointments were booked through the department s call center on Saturday, despite the high volume of calls it received, which forced officials to move to an on-site registration format.
