The Wrap

Today’s edition by:

From the editor

It’s no secret, I love a good happy hour deal. There’s noting better than a spicy margarita with chips + queso. Well, there is, a glass of Pinot Noir and a charcuterie board. My choice of happy hour food and drink depends on how I’m feeling and where I’m at. Hope y’all enjoy these fun happy hour deals because I know I will.
