Wine Country restaurateurs love the word "farm" when it comes to naming their restaurants. There’s Farmhouse Restaurant at Farmhouse Inn in Forestville, Farm restaurant at Carneros Resort and Spa in Napa, Farmstead restaurant at Long Meadow Ranch in St. Helena, and now, Farmhouse in Sonoma. While the first three are high-end dining destinations, I have an extra special place in my heart for the fourth, a casual, affordable, family-friendly spot Sonoma Springs has long needed.

My new happy place to hang out in Healdsburg. On a sunny summer day, it's great to relax on the patio with a cold glass of Sonoma County Brut Sparkling followed by a chilled glass of Salmon Run Zinfandel Rosé. It's doggie friendly, too! https://t.co/iYCFvwbTm5

If you love Detroit and Chicago style pizzas as much as I do, you're going to love Croccante Pizza in Napa. Owner Hakan Kostek worked at Model Bakery, and trained with other bakeries for 30 years to make his crust, sauces and toppings perfecto. https://t.co/YcJuoV04rX

It surprised me to learn this while writing about employee happiness: "a recent Gallup poll found that four in 10 U.S. employees say their job is negatively impacting their mental health." I thought I was the only one going crazy. https://t.co/23MAgWlBhP
