SIPPLE

Thrilled to announce that as of last June, I am a certified HypnoBirthing Childbirth Educator! After experiencing my own challenges in labor and delivery of my first two children, I decided to explore HypnoBirthing with my third delivery and am so grateful I did. HypnoBirthing empowers women and their partners to understand the depths of the mind, remove fears surrounding childbirth, open lines of communication between each other and their healthcare providers, reconnect with the intuitive nature of giving birth and become the best advocates for a calm and gentle birth. I was so amazed at the difference it made for me in the birth of my daughter that I became certified and get to help other couples do the same!

Best nonalcoholic wine for a dessert wine alternative: NON2 Caramelized Pear & Kombu Along with dealcoholized wine, wine proxies are another major category in the NA wine world. Proxies aren’t wine and not meant to mimic a certain wine varietal. Instead, these complex beverages lean on spices, fruits, and teas to make them especially food-friendly. At SIPPLE, a nonalcoholic bottle shop in Houston, founder Danny Frounfelkner stocks 11 different kinds of wine proxies. One favorite brand, NON , makes blends that rely heavily on seasonal flavors. “The NON 2 is complex with beautiful autumn and winter flavors. It's almost like having a liquid spice rack that leaves you wanting more,” he explains. Made with pears, verjus, black tea, kombu (kelp), olive brine, vanilla, agave, clove, cardamom, ginger root, star anise and peppercorn, it’s for the adventurous palate. If you’re up for that adventure, Frounfelkner recommends pouring a glass to go with pies, pumpkin and apple-based dishes, savory pastries and cheese boards.
