Dear Readers,

My name is Lorrie S. LeBeaux. I love wine, food, art, and entertaining the people I love--some of the best things in life! So, I'm always on the search for what I call "life's little luxuries."

For me, life's little luxuries can come in the form of great wines that don't break the bank, or they can come in the form of wines that I call "treat yourself, don't cheat yourself" splurges. I'll give you the tip on wines from both ends of the price scale. But whatever you buy, no matter the price, you should enjoy it!

As for food, the recipes I'll share with you will always be original and very easy to create; above all, the recipes will be extremely tasty !

I'll share my art world finds with you as well! On my own personal quest for beauty, I discover the best accessories that the world of interior design has to offer. In this newsletter, I will provide you with all the information you need to purchase these accessories. The objects d'art will be a diverse collection that will include small treasures, framed art, and pieces of furniture!

Entertaining is what fine living is all about. Sharing your home, food, and wine are but a few of the elements that make an event successful.

My newsletter is not just about wine recommendations; it's about creating a glamorous lifestyle for yourself and your loved ones. The wine suggestions will assist you in deciding upon and purchasing the best wine for your needs; the detailed, accurate wine descriptions paired with elegant, complementary recipes will be a great help to you. After reading this newsletter, you'll never again have to say, "Wow, I just threw down so much money on this bottle of wine that I don't even like," and be stuck with an opened bottle that you can't return. How many times has this happened to you? Well, fear no more, Lorrie's here to guide you through your wine journey,
your culinary quest, and your home decorating adventures!

This concept of having a fabulous lifestyle and living life to the fullest is a philosophy that I live by every day.

This newsletter has been in the making for three years. With the support of family, friends, and several Napa Valley vintners, I am finally able to share my newsletter with all of you. The most enthusiastic, helpful vintners include the Rutherford Ranch Vineyard and Winery, Honig Vineyard and Winery, Ceja Vineyards, and Schramsberg Vineyards. These wineries have agreed to
support me in the writing of my newsletter by providing me with samples of their fine wines to rate and pair with food.

The news letter is just $3.00. I promise you, it'll be the best three dollars you ever spent! Just think, you spend more than that for a hamburger, and once you eat it, it's all gone! However, with these newsletters, you'll have a wealth of information to save and use for years to come.
