These are the days. ❤️ (by Vino Veritas)
School has started, college kids are getting ready to head back, schedules are filling up again and just like that, summer is starting to wind down.
I always have mixed feelings about this time of year. There is excitement about what’s ahead, but also that feeling of wanting everything to slow down just a bit and relish in something a bit indulgent: a last minute vaca, one more nice dinner with the family, or a night out with a friend you haven’t seen enough this summer.
That's one thing I love about guests at Vino Veritas. It's so cool to see people come in for a glass of wine or to hear some music, but then they run into someone they know. Or they meet someone they didn’t know and pull a chair over. They stay longer than they planned and suddenly a simple night out becomes something more. I think we need places like that. ❤️
And this week is such a good week to enjoy it.🥳
Visit us today, on Wed we are open 4-10PM with discounts on wine and beer flights. 🥂🍻✈
Thursday is our monthly Blue Cottage Ladies Society, and have I absolutely loved watching this night become a thing! Women come with friends, some come not knowing many people at all, passports get stamped, friendships are made and for a few hours we just get to enjoy being together. 💕
For the month of August, we are celebrating Sunflowers & Sisterhood 🌻 Wear yellow, wear a sunflower, stick one in your hair...have fun with it! Kamil Bonner will be singing her heart out for us, and ladies who come dressed for the theme will be greeted with a complimentary glass of Chandon sparkling. 🍾
Then we head into the weekend with some really incredible musicians. Friday night, The Matchsticks are on the Velvet Stage with their Chapman Stick and drums. If you’ve never seen them, they are SO cool and different...and somehow can play just about anything you can think of, with a good bit of humor thrown in!
Saturday we welcome back local favorite Brandon Fenley, and I’m really hoping the keytar comes with him. It somehow makes a one man show such a textured performance. 🎸🎤🎹
Please note that we are closed this Sunday, August 16th for a private event. See you next Sunday! 
Bring that college kid out one more time before they leave. Meet your girlfriends. Have a date night. Sit on the patio. Share a bottle. Listen to some great music.
These are the days. Let’s enjoy them while we’re in them. ❤️
We’ll be here at the little blue cottage.
