Today's giveaway is so special, I was thrilled that Janice and Susan's Ultimate Blog Party (an annual, fun meet & meet for bloggers) begins TODAY–while I am still hosting my 50th Birthday Blog Bash.  Especially if you're new to blogging, the UBP is a wonderful way to connect with bloggers with whom you might not otherwise cross cyberpaths.

  • A Biltmore Estate Souvenir Guidebook
  • Two tickets to the "Vine to the Wine" tour lasting about 2½ hours ($170 value)

    • Begins at the Winery where guests will learn a bit of history & enjoy a sparkling tasting
    • Proceeds to the west side of the Estate to tour the vineyard + a Chardonnay tasting
    • Back to the Winery for a production tour + a Cab Franc tasting
    • Ends with another sparkling tasting AND four more Biltmore wines!
