If you&#8217;re on my LJ list and are interested in attending, living in or near Toronto, and I don&#8217;t have your current e-mail (<lj user=\"starfishchick\">? <lj user=\"section2\">? <lj user=\"shoefiend\">? <lj user=\"neeuqdrazil\">? <lj user=\"gwen_o_rama\">? <lj user=\"orkillme\">?), post here and let me know so I can add you to the list. <\/p>\n<p>Every year it&#8217;s a good time, you don&#8217;t have to stick close to the group if you don&#8217;t want to (although it&#8217;s nice to compare notes and have folks to traipse around with), and wine makes strangers friends fast, so don&#8217;t be shy if you&#8217;re a newbie.<\/p>\n<p><b>The basic details are as follows:<br \/>\nEvent: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.santewinefestival.net\/sipsavourshop_may6.htm\">&#8220;Sip, Savour and Shop&#8221;<\/a> wine tasting walkabout in Yorkville<br \/>\nMeeting Location: Manulife Centre Lobby, 55 Bloor St. W, Toronto<br \/>\nWhen: Saturday, May 6, 11:00am &#8211; 3:00pm<br \/>\nCost: a measly $15.00 for *multiple* glasses of wine and cheese and fruit snacks and chocolate and tasty things cooked by the chefs at Williams-Sonoma<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Nothing is better than nearly-free wine! Especially while walking outdoors.<\/p>\n<p>Put on your fancy shoes, new spring clothes, and sunglasses: join together for an annual tradition. Last year we had slight rain, which was a pity, and we started a little late in the day. This year: everybody meets at the Manulife Centre to buy our &#8220;Passports&#8221; at eleven o&#8217;clock SHARP so we can get to the very important business of drinking in the sunshine IMMEDIATELY. Then we walk from store to store, getting our passports stamped and sampling a variety of red, white and sparkling wines. Come join, everyone!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The time for Toronto&#8217;s yummy Sante Wine Festival is almost upon us!
