QOTD: My Mom, who’s in the hospital right now, and hopefully able to go home on Wednesday. Also, the rest of my family, my girlfriend Erin, and our dog Suzy!

Excellent episode, and well played with the sniffy sniff shirt. You got some of those for sale?

My 2 cents: the hands-down best Italian varietal wines from the US are done by the Brewer-Clifton project called “Palmina”, a winery in Santa Barbara dedicated to 100% Italian grape variatals. Their Nebbiolo is awesome! Check it out Vayniacs!

Great episode. We were so happy to watch, and like other posters, I couldn’t believe you made us wait almost to the end to see little Misha. She’s beautiful.

My sunshine is my daughter and son. I can’t imagine my life without them. Aren’t children amazing?! Enjoy the journey. Congratulations.

BTW, I’m building a tower in my backyard for my daughter. Shall I plan a room for yours? I have a moat, but I’m still in the market for a dragon…

What a cute and precious baby. Misha is so luck to have a loving father and mother. Congratulations Gary!!

QOTD: No family of my own, but for now, my sunshine is my health. I strive to stay healthy and well so I can love my family and be around them as long as I can. Think about it, if you’re not healthy, your family worries and suffers too. So be thankful for your health too.

So happy that you have a your sunshine. My sunshine is friends and family. I am going to Chicago this weekend for my nephew’s birthday, which I have not missed in his 11 years. I want to wish my good friend, and fellow wine lover Angela, who lives in Italy a very a happy birthday and wish I could celebrate it with her. Ciao.

great to see you back on the saddle…

and Misha makes this the best show. Love the back and forth, doing what you gotta do to take care of your girl.

Hope the “How’s it gonna end?” question never comes so we can see her over the years with Big Poppa Gary.
