Hi there! I'm a lurker but wanted to give you some great ideas if your up for it! I am from the Sacramento area (work here but live nearby). There are some amazing wineries in this area as well as some amazing restaurants. The "night life" down here is fun if she's into that kind of thing.
We have an amazing wine bar right next door to this great mexican restaurant if you'd like their information. Also if you point me in the direction of her favorite wine, I can give you some rec's for local stuff.
Let me know what info you'd like and I'd be really glad to help!
Mel

Agreed! That girl does not deserve to live near Napa!
::stomps off pouting::
Hahahaha. I am a beer or Jack D guy so I am likely missing your point. What is the issue with white zin? Explain yourself young lady!!!
Agreed! EWWWWW!!!
White Zin is the worst thing ever. Seriously.
Yowza!
So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
I will put it to you this way. Assuming that you like good beer or real Jack. White Zin is the equivalent of drinking warm Bud out of can or drinking cheap whiskey out of a plastic bottle.
I once heard a dating story that went like this:
You can tell alot about a women by what she orders at the bar:
If she orders a beer, she never got out of the college mindset
If she orders hard liquor, she is a party girl
If she orders wine, she is most likely high class
If she orders white zin, she thinks she is high class but really has no clue.

It's like the O'Doulls of wine. Is that the non-al stuff? Then whatever a crap beer is that makes people say they're beer drinkers is what white zin is. White zin belongs in the 80s with blue eyeshadow.
Hahaha...now I gotcha. I already copied and pasted this and cant wait to blow her up on this!! Cruel? Yes but funny. Would she do the same to me? No doubt
OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just typed out this ridiculously long post and the stupid Nest ate it. Let me re-type it in a word doc, copy and paste and get back to you.
But, because I'm all nosey and sh!t, what will she be doing out here? Who is she going to be working for?
Mel~
You are lucky this board is anonymous or I would be sending all of you a bottle of white zin for xmas just to be a dyckhead.
You're lucky the board is anonymous or I'd be on a plane to Iowa and calling your "I wish I was a cowboy" bluff!
Haha! Make it just zin and I will be all over that!
Please, for the sake of mankind, try to convince her to drink big girl wine. She is moving to NAPA for chrissake! Buy her a good bottle of red and tell her to put her big girl pants on! She is Brazilian, FFS!

No worries, I will be giving her grief about it...but I am no better because I was in the dark on that too. LOL. Yes I will remind her she Brazilian, and then like a smartass she will remind me that she is half white and that it must be the white part of her that is making her weak.
That is a running joke of ours..even though I am white.
Ok...but after Dec 27th. Hahahaha...only joking.
No worries Mel!! Thanks for your help.
She is going to be training for a HR Director position.
