Heart
Heart continued topping the charts through the ‘80’s and ‘90’s with huge hits like “These Dreams,” “Alone,” “What About Love,” “If Looks Could Kill,” “Never,” and a string of other hits that showcased the sisters’ enormous talents as musicians and singers. Nearly 35 years after their first big hit, Ann and Nancy Wilson were back in the Billboard Top 10 in 2010 with Heart’s “Red Velvet Car” album, and a Top 5 DVD (“Night at Sky Church”).

Southern Italy Wine Tasting
No two Italian wines are ever the same, thanks to the countries vastly varying climates and cultures. While the north celebrates the finesse and elegance of the Veneto, Piedmont and Trentino with grapes like Nebbiolo and Pinot Grigio, and the central areas embrace the power of the Sagiovese grape in Chianti and Brunello de Montalcino, in the south things get a bit warmer and more complex (in more ways than one). This month we’ll be focusing on the interesting wines that hail from the southern portions of Italy – including Sicily.
