    Just some of the images of the food and drinks I have eaten/drank while suffering a horrific head cold today (I didn't take a picture of my tea or toast this morning).  The tomato is the first one I ate out of my own garden (please ignore the dying leaf to its side, I cleaned that up after I took the picture). 

    Any other vegitarian suggestions of what good foods I should eat while sick?

    I just saw this video on hulu and thought it was hilarious.  Great job from Office Max on not even mentioning their name in the video.

    Last night I visited the California Academy of Science's Nightlife.  Each Thursday throughout the summer they open the academy up to the 21 and over crowd after 6PM. I stood in line with what I was told was around 3,000 people (the hours were from 4-6, so the 3,000 were not all there at the same time) to drink, dance and enjoy the sites of the academy.

    The remodel looks fantastic and it was awesome being able to drink in the aquarium and not have to deal with a bunch of little kids getting in the way and pressing their noses on the glass... That was left up to me and my friends.  Thankfully, the one time I did spill it was on my friend and not in the water.

    The iphone is made for situations like last night where a flash is not allowed, nor looks good when taking pictures through glass.

    If anyone is around San Fransisco on a Thursday night, I highly recommend visiting... Just make sure to get your tickets a few days early or get there a few hours early to purchase them at the door!

    I have always heard about someone getting one of those emails asking to send $10,000 to save someone's life in Russia.  Or maybe one of those where a Prince in Nigeria needs your money to make more money.  It has always been hearsay, someone always knew of someone else who had fallen for the scam and lost a ton of money.  Well, this morning I woke up to this email in my Inbox.

    I know that people are gullible to a lot of things in life, but really?  Are there still people out there that think this is their shot at fortune?

    Living in my Sonoma County "bubble" I sometimes forget that the rest of the United States doesn't know as much about wine as my friends and I do.  But this clip just cracked me up..... And yes, I am going on record here and now that I am a fan of the horribleness that is the reality shows on VH1.

    "As much as I like to drink wine, I never knew there was actually a real process to it.  I mean, you pour it and you drink it. You pour it and you drink it."

    "But apparently it is a lot more complicated then that."

    Hello! My name is Shana Ray, a Digital (Social Media) Marketing Director, working with wineries, restaurants & tech.

    My main website can be found at http://shanaray.com but I use this one as my social media/wine/food/music/llama blog and my way to get out my frustrations with the stuffiness that sometimes comes with wine.

    ...and I have red hair and can usually be heard before I am seen.

    I am a partner at Two Five Media and a Digital Media + PR Manager for Collaborize Classroom http://CollaborizeClassroom.com/blog

    .... yup, llamas.
