Hello! Welcome to Keeping Up with the Joneses. Thanks for stopping by! We're a young couple living in the East Arkansas/Memphis area otherwise known as The Delta, with a love for family, friends, faith and food.

We believe that some of the best memories are created at home around the dinner table, and when entertaining those you love. This little blog is where I share recipes, wine, our home and our life. Enjoy! -Kendall

What You'll Find:

I love to try new recipes. In fact, I rarely make the same thing twice. I'm a bona-fide cookbook collector, Pinterest addict and magazine aficionado. On the blog, you'll see what I've got cooking.

I love wine, y'all, so from time to time I feature bottles I've loved. Crafts and decorating our little house are passions of mine, so you may see some of that. Thanks for stopping by!

Wine Friday: Tarot Grenache

Hello there. Happy weekend!

I hope the weather is nice and sunny where you are. Spring has sprung around here and it's refreshing! Except for the pollen, of course :)

Welcome to Wine Friday! I'm sorry I missed it last week. But, last Thursday night I was halfway between Memphis and Dallas trying to scrub off parts of a bad spray tan, falling asleep over my laptop while catching up on work, and dreaming of the girls weekend I had before me. This week? Pshhh - totally different. The signs of the spray tan linger on my feet and I'm falling asleep on the couch at 9:45. I know... you're jealous! 

Seriously though, I took some time this week to slow down and enjoy dinners at home with Keith, a couple of glasses of wine with DVR'd shows, and flipping through some new magazines. Tonight, I poured a bottle of this wine, and I literally picked it out from my collection because it coordinated with my nail polish. It's the simple things!

Tarot Grenache
Year: 2008
Origin: McLaren Vale, Australia
Average Price: $12
About the wine:  This was my first Grenache to purchase. I tasted it at a local wine shop and loved it. The bottle label is interesting, too. The website for the winemakers is totally weird, but who cares? The wine is good. It's a bit sassy, which is just what I needed.

Have a great weekend!
