The smugness and the entitlement…there is a reason why @GillianKeegan hasn’t been told that she’s ‘done a fucking good job’ because by whichever metric you wish to use, she hasn’t.
@bitzdames getting excited @chateaucoutet , and who wouldn’t in the face of the streamlined opulence of 2015, the saffron scented ‘11 and the meat-glaze umami bomb that is the ‘89. Stellar. @capitalcityclubatlanta instagram.com/p/CqWWBOqtsIT/…

At one of the great cathedrals to Sherry @valdespinosherry with @guillermoarce1970 Thank you for the brilliant tasting. instagram.com/p/CoacDaQtaNk/…
