Side question, do you carry your cod liver oil in liquid or pill form when you travel? And do you br

Then it occurred to me how about a wine country weekend? I m a serious wine lover. And I am lucky to live in California, where we have some of the best wine in the world (seriously, our wines are up there with France, Italy and Spain).
I don t even have to fly to Napa. It s an hour drive from Los Angeles to Santa Ynez wine country just north of Santa Barbara. In fact, I almost like it better than Napa or Sonoma because it s so laid-back, with fewer tourists. People say Santa Ynez is like Napa was twenty years ago.
So I called up my good friend Emily Bartlett of the Holistic Squid blog, and she whisked me away in her air-conditioned minivan SUV (oooh I got in trouble for that see the comments) for two nights in wine country.
If you re looking oceanfront hotels virginia beach for HBO and room service, you won t find it here. But the beds are perfectly fine and they even have a pool. And did I mention it s cheap? And almost walking distance from some of the best pizza in the world? (Definitely NOT walking distance because it s at the top of a steep hill. NOT a fun prospect after a few glasses of wine.)
We stayed our last night in Solvang at an adorable little Danish-themed place called the Hamlet Inn. Inexpensive, super comfy, with a truly awesome hot shower. And right in the heart of things. The perfect place to make your wine-tasting headquarters.
I m SERIOUSLY considering launching a series of trips like this. Would you be interested in joining me and some of your favorite food bloggers on culinary trips to wine country (or even abroad)? Please comment below if you are interested. I ll put you on a list to be contacted.
