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: Massimo Sauvignon Blanc

Happy Friday! I hope you've had a wonderful week! The weather is getting much warmer around here, and with wedges and flip flops taking a priority in my closet, so does white wine in our fridge....so, welcome to wine friday!

I recently stocked up on a case of mixed wines at my favorite place in Memphis - Pyramid Wines & Liquors. The gal in there knows her wine and she lets you sample anything you like. She samples right along with you, so I'm not sure how she stays awake through a full day and night of sampling! But nonetheless, I always trust her recommendations. Below is a good one that I enjoyed this week:


628x471

Massimo Sauvignon Blanc
Year: 2011
Origin: Marlborough, New Zealand
Average Price: $11
About the wine:  I'm normally not able to make note of what specific flavors I get from wine - I just either like it or don't, but with this one, I could pick up on a few strong things: grapefruit, lemon, and some bright acidity. It was also recently award Silver at the San Antonio Wine Festival. I loved it and will be trying again!

Have a great weekend!
