5 After 5

*Disclaimer: I don't work for Whole Foods. I actually prefer The Fresh Market for a specialty grocery store. However, since The Fresh Market does not have events like this, Friday evenings are Whole Foods' time to shine.

If you have not yet discovered this gem of a happy hour at Whole Foods, then you are seriously missing out! Every Friday at 5pm, Whole Foods hosts an event called "5 after 5." You go and pay a measly $5 and you get a tasting of five different wines paired with five different dishes and a dessert. This is an amazing deal! And since this is a specialty grocery store, you are looking at quality wine and delicious dishes to sample. And for those of you who are worried about this being a bit too much wine, they are only half pours and it's only five dollars.... you could skip one or two and still have a good time.  And for those of you who don't drink, join your friends that do and eat their food. : )

So Friday evening after work, some friends and I headed to Whole Foods and bought our five dollar glass of wine and started around the store to embrace the fun! (Oh, another cool part is that if you bring back your glass, it only costs $4 the next time) The wine was amazing. The food was almost all amazing. The company was beyond amazing.  

Enjoying the finer things! 

So, ultimately, I can't wait till the bar exam is over and we can make this a regular thing. Everyone should look up their local Whole Foods and check this event out. It is always good to make time for the finer things in life!
