Sorry for the delay. Work has been…work.

So here is the challenge:
Post a tasting note for a “pizza wine” and I will donate $10 to the charity. For purposes of this challenge, a “Pizza Wine” is any inexpensive wine that goes great with any style of pizza. If you post a picture of you enjoying your pizza, or just your wine and pizza if you are ugly, then I will double the donation to $20.

Imagine through no fault of your own, you suddenly had to leave everything you’ve worked for; your home and all of your belongings, and flee with your family to another country. You don’t speak the language, you aren’t welcome, you haven’t fed your kids in days, everyone is cold and miserable, and a cloud of desperation hangs like a fog around your impromptu camp You know that only a small number of the people in your group will make it to safety and security. I think that would be terrifying. The powerlessness, terror and shame that I would feel trying to protect and provide for my family, not knowing what the next day might bring. So, with that thought, my adopted charity is:
IRC responds to the world’s worst humanitarian crises and helps people to survive and rebuild their lives. At work in over 40 countries and 25 U.S. cities to restore safety, dignity and hope, the IRC leads the way from harm to home.
