Apples and Wine

Women are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top. Most men don’t want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they sometimes take the apples from the ground that aren’t as good, but easy. The apples at the top think something is wrong with them, when in reality they’re amazing. They just have to wait for the right man come along, the one who is brave enough to climb to the top of the tree.

Now men…men are like fine wine. They begin as grapes and it is up to women to stomp them until they turn into something acceptable to have dinner with.

Enjoy the peace of September with the kids back to school from Sigrid, Lisa and all the staff at Signature Wines.
