What? Michelle is saying "no" to free wine?

In 10 days, I’ll be standing in front of a bunch of judges at an NPC Bodybuilding Competition in Fort Lauderdale.

If you've been following my blog or have checked out my photos, then you know I’m not one of the traditional girl bodybuilders. Instead I compete in the bikini athlete division. I love challenging my body with the training, but because I’ve only been doing it for five months, I’m still fairly new so am struggling with the diet and workout.

So the last thing I need to see is this: Free Spanish Wine Tasting Event at Selland’s.

If you haven’t been to Selland’s in East Sacramento, you’re missing out. The food is incredible…and the wine is even better. Their wine guy, David Scott is like the God of wine-mood pairing. You notice I’m saying “mood” and not “food” and that’s because whenever I’ve gone, I’ve usually been craving a glass of wine and not a meal.

It doesn’t matter if I'm happy, tired or just want to relax and people watch on a Friday night, David always has a couple new wines in his tasting area and can find one that will match my mood. I’ve even ended up buying a few bottles that I never thought I would like.

And now he’s tempting me with his Wednesday tastings.

This Wednesday , he’ll be featuring wines from Spain’s Bodegas Borsao Winery. The tasting is free and goes from 6-9 p.m. But I’m going to be a good girl and just spread the word to other wine-lovers -- even though I really, really want to go.

If you're interested, you can follow my NPC training on my Facebook fan page.
