2013 has definitely started off with a bang for me!  My daughter has started preschool and is learning new, interesting things each day.  She's also experiencing the daily drama that comes with interacting with her fellow friends and teachers.  As for me, I'm happy to say that my invention, Toothpaste 2 Go, is raring to go and is starting to hit the retail scene!  This has kept me busy beyond belief and now I'm definitely in need of a break from all the fast-paced action.

That's why I'm thrilled to have the chance to let my hair down and go out with my husband for an unforgettable night at Ruth's Chris Steak House!  Ruth's Chris is the place that showed the world how great a steak can be.  Their steaks are carefully selected and aged for tenderness, then cut thick to ensure juiciness.  Seared to perfection at 1800 degrees and seasoned simply with salt, black pepper and a touch of parsley, because a steak like this needs nothing else.

On Thursday, March 14th, Ruth's Chris Steak House will be serving up 5 of the best wines from the famous Napa Valley to bring you a phenomenal night of top rated wines and great food.  Napa Valley is home to some of the world's finest vineyards and wineries and is a favorite amongst many wine enthusiasts.  Uncork the night with five delicious courses paired with five of Napa's best wines.  Here's the scrumptious dinner menu that's waiting for you:
