Free Wine Tastings This Weekend

Image via Flickr user CoreForceI am going to attempt to switch this posting to Thursdays in order to highlight the several free tastings that happen this evening. I can't guarantee this will happen each week but I will make my best effort to get you the maximum of freeno info!

The usual reminder: I put this together before all the shops and cellars might have posted their tastings (ergo, they might not make it on the calendar), there is a listing of all the places that I've found free tastings at in the past is on the main Wine page. If you don't see one on the calendar that strikes your fancy, check out the list and the shops' sites and you might something more to your taste.

(Cross-posting to Fresh-Picked Seattle and Seattle Natural Selection.)

Thanks so much to everyone who entered the Cantabulous Fresh-Picked Giveaway and the Seattle Natural Selection Giveaway! Today I took all the entries, assigned a number to each (folks who entered saying they are Facebook likers got two) and used Random.org to pick a number.

And the winners are...

  • Felice L wins the Cantabulous Giveaway!
  • Donata T wins The Street-Smart Naturalist in the Seattle Natural Selection Giveaway!

If you didn't win this time, don't worry! I will be running more giveaways on the site, with themes like beer, pie-making, and entertaining. (And for future giveaways, I really will take and post pictures of the prize package, this one just got away from me.) The next giveaway will be announced next Tuesday, Sept 7.  And don't forget to become a Facebook liker of Seattle Natural Selection and Fresh-Picked Seattle so that you, too, can get two chances to win!

Thanks again to everyone who entered and for reading Fresh-Picked Seattle!

Upcoming Gluten-Free Events

Image via Lise the LoserNeed to go gluten-free? There are several events coming up in the next few months that offer some guidance and support for making the transition to a gluten-free lifestyle. They also might be great opportunities to diversify your gluten-free diet if you've been eating that way for a while but have fallen into a rut.

Here's a quick round-up of resources & events, and remember you can always check out the Special Diets page for a continuously-updated calendar of gluten-free events and a listing of local resources.

Image via Flickr user Boo_Licious(Cross-posting to Freeattle, Fresh-Picked Seattle, and Seattle Natural Selection.)

Hey everyone! 

Sorry for the lack of Monday post, I am a little under the weather with a cold-y type thing and lost all my hyperlinking energy. I am pretty sure I'll be back up to speed quickly and posting will resume its relative regularity.

In the meantime, a reminder that today is the last day to enter the giveaways on Fresh-Picked Seattle and Seattle Natural Selection. On Fresh-Picked, you can enter to win a copy of Urban Pantry, preserves and pickling spices. On Seattle Natural Selection, you can win a copy of The Street-Smart Naturalist. You can enter both! All you need to do is fill out the entry form:
