Things I love — wine, food, spirits, travel, music — that you love, too.

PJ Gach writes a witty, thoughtful Substack on fashion, beauty, and smart shopping. A shopping, thrifting, and etiquette expert featured in Martha Stewart, US News & World Report, and The New York Times, she explores style, deals, and zestful living.

I'm a food writer + author sharing mini essays on words, recommendations for memorable Books, Bites + Beverages, plus memoir updates + links to published articles.

Great people and places in Paris we don't talk about enough.

Weekly(ish) updates about media opportunities, travel talk/tips, and random musings, plus a sprinkling of spooky stuff (because it's always Halloween in my soul).

Hotels, place, culture, food, and drinks.

Off-duty notes from a travel writer.

Food and wine does more than just nourish the body -- they also feed the soul. That's basically what this newsletter is about, the food and (mostly) wine inspiring my mind, heart, and palate throughout the (sometimes chaotic) journey of life.
