Wine Classes at Whole Foods
Congratulations to wine aficionado Melanie Armstrong, who recently welcomed baby Evan Marshall Armstrong. Like any new mom, Melanie is up to her eyeballs in bottles, but in her case it's Bordeaux and Beaujolais. The host of Wine University is conducting a series of classes at Whole Foods' Salud! demonstration kitchen. In some classes, you'll taste as many as nine wines for $15. If you can find a better deal on booze, please report back on Bites.

This sounds fantastically educational and fun.How does Melanie have time to do this with a new baby (is that tautology? Is there such a thing as an old baby?)
