The last Twilight movie, Breaking Dawn – Part 2, doesn’t come out til Friday but of course Twihards are already camping out. Most of them probably aren’t even of drinking age, but I’ve seen interviews with people up to 48 years old. I just don’t even know what to say about that. But they could … Continue reading

not surprisingly, katie holmes likes boxed wine
Let’s call it what it is – Katie Holmes married a very famous scientologist and then she got very famous too. Tom Cruise’s utter devotion to the “body of beliefs” was clear to all, and I will never believe she didn’t know full well what she was getting into. Anyone now calling her a victim … Continue reading
heartbreak, by eva longoria
I think we can all agree that if you and Mark Sanchez just broke up you’d be trying to figure out how to live another day. Eva Longoria has done this the smart way: the grapefriend way! The Daily Mail ran this article and pic of her outside of Ralph’s supermarket in LA, with quite a … Continue reading
what did obama drink to celebrate?
The anticipation is KILLING grapefriend! Last election, he and Michelle drank Graham Beck Brut NV (which means Non Vintage). It’s a sparkling wine from South Africa, and the same thing Nelson Mandela drank at his inauguration as South Africa’s first black president. I like Graham Beck, but really Obama should be drinking American! Did he drink Mumm Napa, … Continue reading
celebrate election day – unless you live in these states

sandy devastates red hook winery
In addition to the loss of life and homes, businesses got hit by Sandy too. As grapefriend, this story I read made me feel horrible for Red Hook Winery, who has probably lost all of their wine. The winery was doing a cool experiment where they took grapes from the same North Fork vineyard but … Continue reading
getting your grape on: october
I just love when people tag me when they drink wine. This month was pretty crazy, especially since lots of east coasters were stuck in their Sandy bunkers (those wine pics are here due to extreme circumstances and extreme wine drinking and not included in this month’s Getting Your Grape On). So let’s get to it! … Continue reading
eli manning looking at things – things like grapefriend
With all the craziness and people losing homes and being displaced, I really hadn’t thought about football. But many Giants and Jets live in New Jersey where the stadium is, and yesterday Kate Mara (niece of Giants owner John Mara) tweeted a pic of Eli Manning assessing the damage to his Hoboken apartment building. It … Continue reading
