With today marking the final day of my new Nashville go-to’s, I just had to save my favorite way to “wine down” this summer for last! It’s called RED Spirits & Wine, and this place has been the talk about town with its recent opening earlier this year…hola! Located on the tip of Bellevue and

Growing up, I’ve always had a close relationship with my parents. I’m not closer to one parent over the other, but I do have a unique relationship with them both. I value my mother’s opinion on always looking like a lady, portraying correct manners, doing the right thing…along with many more valuable suggestions. But my
